⌖ Bristol · Origin Workspace

Hosted by Mindstone

Mindstone’s Bristol AI Meetup brings practical LLM demos, real-world building lessons and discussion about AI’s wider impact to Origin Workspace on 28 October. Taking place from 6pm to 9pm on Wednesday 28 October 2026, this monthly, in-person meetup offers a grounded look at how artificial intelligence is being built with and applied today. It is an opportunity to see working ideas up close, learn from practical experience and meet others exploring the fast-changing AI landscape in Bristol. Three perspectives on AI The evening features three talks spanning technical development, everyday application and big-picture thinking: - What I Learned Building With LLMs, a technical demonstration that breaks down the process of building an AI-powered product, including real-life lessons and insights gathered along the way. - Beating the Lotto, with AI by Jason Holloway, a practical demo and step-by-step guide showing how AI can be used to speed up and improve tasks. - What Does the Future Look Like With AI?, a theoretical exploration of how AI may affect work, everyday life and society. Together, the sessions move from hands-on product building to practical workflows and the broader consequences of adoption. That mix makes the meetup relevant to people already experimenting with LLMs and AI products, as well as curious attendees who want concrete examples rather than abstract hype. Technical builders can expect implementation-focused learning, while founders, professionals and AI enthusiasts can gain ideas about useful applications and future implications. Talks, demos and community This is a three-hour, in-person event organised by Mindstone. The structured talks are followed by pizza, drinks and networking, giving attendees time to compare projects, discuss the presentations and build connections with fellow AI practitioners and enthusiasts. The meetup takes place at Origin Workspace, 40 Berkeley Square, Bristol BS8 1HP. Its combination of a technical product breakdown, a step-by-step practical demonstration and a discussion about AI’s societal impact provides a broad snapshot of the field in one evening.

FLIRT 2026 brings a practical blueprint for responsible, AI-native organisations to Brighton on 2–3 November, spanning media, marketing and operations. Taking over West Street and satellite venues across Brighton, this two-day, in-person festival-conference examines how organisations can implement AI in the real world,not simply discuss its potential. The programme explores how to operationalise AI across teams, prepare people for changing roles and workflows, and build systems that can last. Organised by the AI in Media Institute, FLIRT expands on the sold-out 2025 AIMI Conference, which brought together 600 attendees and 40 speakers across two stages. Its 2026 edition widens the focus beyond creative AI to cover the complete structure of an AI-native organisation: culture, creativity, infrastructure, governance, talent and execution. What to expect FLIRT combines conference content with practical exploration and city-wide experiences: - The Main Stage hosts keynotes, major ideas and perspectives intended to shape the industry agenda. - The Future Stage tackles the workforce conversation, including what is changing, what is breaking and how organisations are responding. - The Startup Village presents early-stage AI companies through live pitches, investor access and direct industry exposure. - Specialist satellite zones feature live demonstrations of frontier technology, including robotics and real-time generative AI. - Hands-on workshops, immersive experiences and debates create space to test ideas rather than passively consume them. - Flirt After-hours extends the programme into Brighton and makes networking and conversation part of the wider festival experience. Who should attend? The event is designed for anyone whose work is being reshaped by AI. That includes founders, CEOs, CMOs, brand and agency leaders, creative directors, producers, publishers, journalists, broadcasters, musicians, artists, content creators and game developers.

Running from 9:00–11:00 AM PST, the virtual event features three technical talks with practical architectures, research insights and live examples: - Agentic RAG: Beyond Retrieve-and-Generate, Balaji Venkatasubramaniyar, Technical Lead at Wisdom Infotech, will evolve a standard RAG chatbot into an agentic, MCP-connected system. He’ll cover query decomposition, corrective retrieval, tool orchestration and trade-offs involving grounding, latency and cost. - GeoAI for the Physical World, Cesar Alvarez of the University of Augsburg will demonstrate how satellite imagery, geospatial data and foundation models can support environmental analysis. The session includes UrbanScope Open, a GeoAI digital-twin prototype combining 3D buildings, vegetation, temperature, air quality, noise and population data. - Can agents get curious?, Srivatsa P of Sigma Computing will explain how autonomous research agents generate hypotheses, select analyses, track evidence and decide when to stop. He’ll close with a live example of an agent investigating a dataset and revising its approach. This meetup is best suited to AI and ML engineers, data scientists, researchers and technical builders interested in agent design, RAG, computer vision and real-world data. No formal prerequisites are stated. The event is hosted by Jimmy G. and Ai in Cloud Computing San Francisco, with PubNub, AWS Web Services, O’Reilly and Structure listed as sponsors. The online link is visible to attendees, and registration also unlocks the event chat. Register for this event

Generative AI Summit Toronto brings AI builders and executives together on 12 November 2026 for practical talks, workshops and production-focused discussions. Held at the Marriott Downtown at CF Toronto Eaton Centre, 525 Bay Street, Toronto, this single-day summit explores how teams can build, deploy and scale generative and agentic AI beyond the demo stage. Registration and breakfast begin at 08:00, with sessions running from 08:55 and a closing happy hour at 17:00. What to expect The morning headliner stage features perspectives from LangChain, Red Hat and OpenAI on owning AI intelligence, managing information trust and translating frontier capabilities into real-world impact. From 11:00, attendees can move between two dedicated tracks: - Generative AI Summit: enterprise execution, open-stack software factories, knowledge graphs, synthetic data, visual question answering and durable AI application design. - Agentic AI Summit: production failure modes, evaluation and observability, evolving systems, autonomous datasets, manufacturing agents and balancing autonomy with control. Speakers include technical and AI leaders from Google, NVIDIA, Airbnb, RBC Group, Mastercard, AstraZeneca, Wealthsimple, Siemens, HelloFresh and other organisations deploying AI in production. Alongside talks and panels, focused workshops cover reducing AI costs, building a policy-as-code agent committee on Cloudflare, and creating a text-to-SQL database agent. Breakfast, coffee breaks, lunch and the closing happy hour provide structured opportunities to meet engineers, executives and technical leaders facing similar challenges. The programme is designed for AI engineers, architects, product and data leaders, technical executives, and teams responsible for deploying reliable generative or agentic AI systems.
