Agentic AI can accelerate software teams, but only when the right practices are in place. This session explores how agile principles, feedback loops, and team systems help make AI-assisted development productive, reliable, and sustainable.

AI is advancing rapidly, but progress varies. Some tools are ready for production, others are still experimental or driven by hype. This session will explain these distinctions and offer a straightforward, practical overview of the ecosystem.
This meetup focuses on discussion, featuring real-world examples, honest perspectives, and contributions from those actively developing and applying AI.

In Gardens, Not Platforms, Megan shares what she's learned building with AI, both in her products and her own creative process, and introduces a design philosophy that challenges platform-centered thinking.

As manufacturing gradually returns to the United States, makerspaces are becoming powerful entry points for prototyping physical products. If you have a hardware idea, product concept, or manufacturing vision, a makerspace can help you move from idea to prototype and, potentially, from prototype to startup.

We’ll take a practical look at today’s top AI tools and compare them not just in features but also in pricing structures, access limits, and overall value. Instead of focusing on hype, we’ll focus on what helps you get work done: development assistance, content creation, research, automation, productivity workflows, and business tasks.

The main focus of the meetup was AI tools and real-world workflows, using WPadmin.AI as a case study. We discussed how an AI assistant within the WordPress admin can help users work more efficiently by providing guidance and troubleshooting support directly in the dashboard.
