AI Deep Dive (Virtual) - Building Self-Improving Agents

AI Deep Dive (Virtual) - Building Self-Improving Agents

Wed, Jul 29, 5:00 PM
From SF/Bay AI Developers Group
4.4

**Important**: Register on the [event website](https://www.aicamp.ai/event/eventdetails/W2026072910) to receive the joining link. (rsvp on meetup will NOT receive anything). This is virtual event for our AI global community, please double-check your local time. Can't make it live? Register anyway to receive the webinar recording. Join Snowflake to learn how to build self-improving agents **Tech Talk: Your Agent Should Fix Itself: Building Self-Improving Agents** **Speaker:** Elliot Botwick, Principal AI/ML Architect, Snowflake **Abstract:** In this talk, we will share how coding agents help developers build high quality agents faster. A key insight from building agents in production is that high quality agents operate with their goals, plans and actions aligned. We introduce the Agent Goal-Plan-Action (Agent GPA) framework to capture this insight, which achieved state of the art benchmarks on TRAIL/GAIA with 95% error coverage and 86% error localization. The Agent GPA framework assesses the full agent's process: * Was the goal achieved efficiently? * Did the plan make sense? * Were the right tools used? * Did the agent follow through? Without visibility into these steps, teams risk deploying agents that look reliable but create hidden costs in production. Inaccuracies can waste compute, inflate latency and lead to the wrong business decisions, all of which erode trust at scale. We will show how to use coding agents to automate the process of measuring and improving your agent's GPA by using optimization skills that take advantage of the GPA evaluation framework. By the end, you’ll be able to use coding agents and the GPA framework to identify common agent failures, improve their agent and make it ready for production. **Venue:** Virtual, join from anywhere **More virtual sessions:** * Aug 5th: AI Deep Dive with Google Ep 2. [RSVP](https://www.aicamp.ai/event/eventdetails/W2026080510) * Aug 11th: Google Agent in a Day Workshop (#1).

Laser Cutter Safety Training

Laser Cutter Safety Training

Sun, Aug 2, 9:00 PM
From Noisebridge Hackerspace
4.8

Learn how to be safe while using the laser cutter! We have a 150W, CO2 laser cutter with a 3 x 4 ft bed. This training is required to use the laser cutter because we don't want people setting our most expensive equipment donation on fire. You have to do this training even if you were trained at the old space, as we have different safety features now. Training covers * Dangers of the laser cutter * How to be safe * How to put out a fire Each participant will cut a piece of cardboard on the laser cutter while following all the safety steps. This is also a good place to ask questions about specific materials or projects. There is a 5$ fee to register, and we suggest a 20-30$ donation for this class: https://donate.noisebridge.net. If the registration fee is a barrier to your participation, please reach out to the event organisers.
