This week we’re switching things up. Instead of a focused meetup with presentations, we’ll be having a casual AI discussion night. Weather permitting, we’ll meet at Stovehouse common area on Wednesday night. David Showalter will be there from 5:30–7:30 PM to facilitate a few tables for the group, unless it’s absolutely storming. Come on out, grab […]
Google Meet – https://meet.google.com/yie-fbgk-juj What would it take for an AI to be a useful assistant for a large tabletop campaign simulation? Not just a chatbot that vaguely remembers lore, but a system that knows which NPCs know which secrets, which factions are connected, which rumors came from which source pages, and which claims can […]
This week we will be in-person at Deloitte with Lorin Bales presenting. This will be a deep dive into the engineering and life-saving potential of open-source Photoplethysmography (PPG) technology. This presentation explores how custom edge devices and applied machine learning can decode cardiovascular signals to prevent driver impairment, track pilot perfusion, and ultimately democratize health data […]
July arrived earlier than expected! We’ll be over at CohesionForce this week to cover a dataset that is a great resource for training a visual navigation system. We may also have some time to cover the associated paper, which has references to previous work that is also a good trail to follow. The paper is: Cuaran, […]
This week we will meet VIRTUALLY to walk through the paper associated with the dataset that we unboxed last week. We’ll go through the results they found, and then we will check out a few of the models and their architecture. The paper is: Cuaran, J., Baquero Velasquez, A. E., Valverde Gasparino, M., Uppalapati, N. […]
Next week we have the privilege of having Wes Winkler discuss his recent work on the intersection of Generative AI and Cognition. From Wes: We’ll cover: How the use of language is a symbolic abstraction layer that sits between the environment and environmentally situated signals, boundaries, and skill based affordances. How common AI implementation patterns […]
We’re getting together at Yellowhammer to connect and conversate about AI things.
This week we have Lorin Bales presenting a play-by-play of what occurred between OpenAI and Hugging Face last week. In July 2026, an OpenAI model sat down to take a cybersecurity exam — and cheated. Running with their safety controls deliberately switched off, the models were being tested on ExploitGym, a public benchmark measuring whether AI […]
Join us this week at Deloitte as Matt Brooks leads a hands-on session focused on building Artemis, our AI-powered Discord chatbot. We’ll begin with an overview of the frameworks and agent harnesses that could power Artemis, including the Pi SDK, Codex SDK, OpenCode SDK, and Deep Agents SDK. We’ll look at the current state of the ecosystem […]
Join us this week at CohesionForce as we cover the latest updates from various projects. Artemis took off like a rocket and now has 37 closed issues and 39 closed PRs. We’ll walk through design decisions, major updates, and look at some of the interesting interactions on Discord. We also have some time to cover […]
Join us virtually this Wednesday at 6 pm with Josh to continue our monthly Paper Review series! One year ago we looked at agentic memory — systems that let agents accumulate and reuse experience. This month we return to that thread with a twist: the hardest part of memory isn’t remembering, it’s keeping track of […]
