⌖ New York · Chelsea Piers

Hosted by DeepLearning.AI

AI Dev NYC 2026 brings 2,500 AI engineers and builders to Chelsea Piers in New York on 30 November–1 December for two technical, hands-on days. Hosted by the DeepLearning.AI team and Andrew Ng, this conference is designed for people actively building with AI rather than those looking for high-level “AI transformation” commentary. Across four stages and more than 50 hands-on labs, attendees can learn directly from practitioners, develop practical AI engineering skills and apply new techniques to their own projects. What to expect The two-day programme combines: - Technical talks from working AI practitioners - Practical workshops and hands-on labs - Opportunities to apply learning to your own builds - Networking with a large community of engineers and builders - An afterparty and post-event recap The 2026 speaker and session agenda has not yet been published on the event page. However, footage highlighted from previous AI Dev events includes Andrew Ng discussing the future of software engineering and Brandon Middleton presenting a vibe coding masterclass, giving a sense of the builder-focused material the conference is known for. Built for practitioners AI Dev positions itself as a vendor-neutral alternative to product-led or enterprise-focused conferences. DeepLearning.AI says there will be no pitching on stage: the agenda is centred on knowledge and the development of useful engineering skills. The event is backed by a global DeepLearning.AI community of more than seven million learners, while its flagship events have attracted over 6,000 attendees. Andrew Ng hosts the conference as founder of DeepLearning.AI and managing general partner at AI Fund. His background includes serving as the founding lead of Google Brain and former chief scientist at Baidu, as well as co-founding Coursera. This format is best suited to AI engineers, developers and hands-on builders who want substantive technical learning and contact with peers who also ship AI products. The page does not specify formal prerequisites, but its emphasis is firmly on active practitioners and practical application. Tickets… Register for this event

⌖ Mexico City

Hosted by Rafael Mendiola

AI Builders Meetup brings React and AI developers to Mexico City on 27 October 2026 during Mexico Tech Week and Día de Muertos. This planned meetup offers developers a timely opportunity to connect with Mexico’s technology community, compare what they are building and spend time discussing the intersection of React and artificial intelligence. Organised by Rafael Mendiola, it is designed to bring local builders together with developers travelling from outside Mexico. What to expect The concept is deliberately community-focused: gather strong developers in one place, invite interesting speakers and create space for conversations about React, AI and current projects. While the detailed programme and speaker line-up have not yet been announced, the meetup is expected to centre on: - React development and the evolving tools and practices around it - AI products, applications and developer-led experimentation - What attendees are currently designing, coding and shipping - Connections between Mexican developers and visiting builders - Exposure to one of the world’s most energetic technology communities The event is being timed to coincide with Mexico Tech Week and Día de Muertos, making it particularly relevant for people who want to combine a developer meetup with several days in Mexico City. That wider context gives international attendees an opportunity to experience the local technology scene while the city hosts other activity and one of Mexico’s most significant cultural occasions. Who should attend? The meetup is aimed specifically at React and AI developers. It should appeal to working engineers, independent builders and technically minded product creators who want to exchange ideas with peers and learn what others are building. The published announcement does not specify a required experience level, so prospective attendees should register their interest and follow future updates as the agenda takes shape.
