⌖ Chiang Mai · The Kannas Hotel

Hosted by Marcus S. and nick f.

A weekly coffee meetup for AI engineers and coders in Chiang Mai to explore, discuss and experiment with the latest AI technology. Taking place at The Kannas Hotel on Saturday, 17 October 2026, from 10:00 to 12:00 ICT, this informal session offers a regular space to keep up with fast-moving developments in AI. Rather than following a fixed conference agenda, attendees will look at noteworthy technology from the week, discuss what it means and play around with it together. What to expect The meetup combines conversation with practical exploration over coffee. The group’s focus is simple: - Check out the latest AI technology from the past week - Discuss new developments with other coders - Experiment with tools and ideas during the session - Share knowledge and learn from one another - Optionally demonstrate something you have been working with The open format makes this particularly useful for people who want a recurring opportunity to compare notes, see what others are testing and deepen their understanding through peer discussion. It is organised as part of the AI Engineers in Thailand group and hosted by Marcus S. and nick f.; Marcus is identified by Meetup as a Super Organizer. Who should attend? Coders of every experience level are welcome. You do not need to be an advanced AI engineer to take part: the organisers explicitly frame the meetup as a place where attendees can always learn more from each other. It should suit developers already experimenting with AI as well as coders who want to follow current technology in a collaborative, low-pressure setting. Because the gathering runs weekly, it also provides continuity that a one-off talk cannot. This edition is part of a Saturday series scheduled to continue through 1 January 2027, giving Chiang Mai’s coding community a consistent place to revisit new AI developments as they emerge. Venue and practical details The session takes place at The Kannas Hotel, 308 Lampang–Chiang Mai Superhighway, Mueang Chiang Mai District, Chiang Mai 50300. Bring your computer if you would like to demo or test something, but charge it fully beforehand: the event listing states that charging is not available at the venue.

The International Conference on AI and Data Science Applications in Bioinformatics takes place in Chiang Mai, Thailand, on 22–23 October 2026. It focuses on the intersection of artificial intelligence, data science and bioinformatics. About the conference This two-day conference offers a focused setting for exploring how computational approaches connect with biological information and bioinformatics applications. Its central theme brings together three rapidly developing fields: AI, data science and bioinformatics. For attendees working across disciplinary boundaries, the event provides an opportunity to engage with a subject area that combines intelligent systems and data-led methods with biological research. The conference will be particularly relevant to: - AI and data science researchers interested in bioinformatics applications - Bioinformatics professionals exploring computational and intelligent approaches - Academics and students working across computer science, biology or related disciplines - Practitioners following developments at the intersection of AI and biological data - Organisations assessing the relevance of AI and data science to bioinformatics work Event details - Dates: Thursday 22 October to Friday 23 October 2026 - Location: Chiang Mai, Thailand - Format: Two-day international conference - Core subject: AI and data science applications in bioinformatics The interdisciplinary focus is what distinguishes this event. Rather than addressing artificial intelligence as a broad standalone topic, the conference centres specifically on its relationship with data science and bioinformatics. This makes it a potentially useful date for attendees seeking a specialised conference rather than a general overview of AI. The available event listing does not currently identify individual speakers, a session-by-session agenda, the precise venue, ticket categories or submission requirements. Prospective attendees should consult the official listing for the latest programme and participation information before making travel arrangements.
