Hosted by Mindstone

Explore practical AI, LLM product building and the future of work at Mindstone’s in-person Bristol meetup on 21 October 2026, with talks and networking. Mindstone’s October AI Meetup offers a focused evening for anyone keen to understand how artificial intelligence is being built, applied and considered in the real world. Taking place from 6pm to 9pm at Origin Workspace in Bristol, the event combines technical insight, practical productivity advice and bigger-picture discussion in one accessible three-talk format. What to expect The programme approaches AI from three complementary angles: - What I Learned Building With LLMs , a technical demonstration breaking down the process of creating a product with large language models, including real-life lessons and insights from the build. - How To Be More Productive Using AI , a practical demo and step-by-step guide to using AI to complete tasks faster and improve the quality of the work. - What Does the Future Look Like With AI? , a theoretical exploration of how AI could affect work, everyday life and society. Together, these sessions are designed to move beyond abstract AI conversation. Attendees can see how an AI product comes together, pick up practical ideas they can apply to their own workflows, and consider the broader implications of the technology’s rapid development. Who it’s for This meetup will appeal to AI builders, technologists, product makers, professionals exploring AI-assisted productivity, and curious people who want a clearer view of where the field is heading. The combination of a technical build demo, an applied productivity session and a future-focused talk means there is something for both hands-on practitioners and those approaching AI from a business, workplace or societal perspective.

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.
