This week we’ll walk through an example of using the Cline plugin for Visual Studio Code connected through OpenRouter. It’s an agent that can help you as you work, directly from Visual Studio Code – doing much more than just generating code. After working directly with the agent for development, we’ll take a look at setting […]

This week we’ll have several people in the room with various tools attempting to “Vibe Code” our transcription service. We’ll pass screen share around to see each person’s approach and do some evaluation of the output. This should be interesting to compare with our existing transcription service that was written entirely by hand. Here are […]

Vector anatomy – Why pixel patches, temporal frame […]

This week we’ll have Jack Francis as our guest speaker! He will be talking about Replit’s AI Agent for creating applications.  “This session demonstrates how to turn an idea into a functional application in minutes using Replit’s AI Agent. We’ll demystify the mechanics behind this powerful AI coding assistant, tour the Replit platform, and then […]

This week we are taking a field trip to the Space & Missile Defense Symposium! Some of us will walk the exhibit hall floor on Tuesday and early Wednesday to compile a list of companies that have AI related projects on display. Then we’ll do a group walkthrough starting at 3pm on Wednesday to visit […]

This week we are back at HudsonAlpha to talk about group projects. There are a few projects that we’ve worked in the past that I’ll bring up again to evaluate new possibilities due to advances in LLMs. There are some other projects that folks in the community have been talking about, so we’ll see if […]

Join us this week to learn how to get the most of out Midjourney!
