Behind Autonomous AI: Infrastructure, Security, and Control pulls back the curtain on how autonomous AI systems are actually built. This isn't about glossy product launches or investor pitches — it's about technical architecture, real-world implementation challenges, and the engineering decisions that matter when deploying AI that operates independently. Hosted by NovaForge AI Venture Lab in partnership with Kanata Ventures, this March meetup is part of the Rough Cuts: AI Demos series — a hands-on demo night where builders show their actual work in progress. Expect live demonstrations, technical walkthroughs, and open Q&A sessions focused on how systems are architected, not how they're marketed. What You'll See Demos will cover the infrastructure that powers autonomous AI: how builders handle security, implement control mechanisms, and make architectural decisions when systems need to operate without constant human intervention. These are technical deep-dives into real projects — the tools, tradeoffs, and challenges that come with building AI that acts independently. Sessions focus on: - Infrastructure patterns for autonomous AI systems - Security considerations when AI operates without oversight - Control mechanisms and guardrails in production environments - Technical decisions behind live AI implementations - Simple but clever solutions to complex deployment problems This event is designed for engineers, technical founders, and anyone building with AI who wants to understand how autonomous systems are constructed beyond the surface level. Whether you're working with OpenClaw for automation workflows, deploying models via Railway or Vercel, or building agent systems that integrate with n8n or Make, you'll find practical insights from builders solving similar infrastructure challenges. Applications Open for Presenters If you're building something technically interesting, applications are open to present your work. Submit a short walkthrough video demonstrating your project by March 12, 2026. This is your chance to show what you're hacking on — live demos only, no pitch decks. The emphasis is on how you built it, not why someone should invest in it. Event Details: - Date: Thursday, March 19, 2026 - Time: 7:00 PM – 10:00 PM EDT - Venue:
