Jacquelyn Neal is facilitating a workshop at Vanderbilt on AI literacy the first weekend of February. She will do a run through of a hands-on activity and get some feedback from the group. We had a similar conversation about AI Literacy last week with the LearningQuest group. I presented a set of categories and asked for […]

Several folks from Huntsville AI will be giving talks and workshops at the 2026 AI Symposium at the Space & Rocket Center https://www.rocketcenter.com/2026-AI-Symposium/speakers

We’re meeting this Wednesday at 6pm in the executive conference room at HudsonAlpha. The door is on the right as you walk up to the main entrance. We’ll do a rundown of all of the sessions at the AI Symposium that we were able to cover. There were several slots where there were two sessions […]

There has also been a lot of movement by the big AI companies to either acquihire opensource projects or use other approaches to gain an […]

This week, we’ll attempt to cover OpenClaw. Some in the group have used it, but many of us haven’t had a chance – or may just be hesitant based on the potential for hazards. So this week will be a little more of an ad-hoc discussion. If you have used OpenClaw, we would love to […]

This week, we’ll cover a recent blog post by Anthropic: “Labor market impacts of AI: A new measure and early evidence” and combine that with labor statistics from the Huntsville MSA. The Huntsville Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA) in northern Alabama consists of Limestone and Madison counties, anchored by the city of Huntsville. We will also look […]

Please join us for a discussion on how we study the shapes of biological molecules, leading up to the new AlphaFold 3 AI model from Google DeepMind and Isomorphic Labs. We will start by talking about the famous protein folding problem and how scientists used to figure out these shapes using older methods like X-ray […]

Good evening! It’s time for our Spring Social! The forecast looks like rain, so we’re going to get together at Back Forty Beer Company. There’s a lot of room inside, and they also have good food.
