This is not a sales pitch night.
Bring something neat you’re building and want to show off. Bring the thing that broke and you want to figure out. Bring a question your team keeps coming back to. Or come listen and meet people.
We’ll make room for short show-and-tells, conversation, and time to meet people across different kinds of work.
You do not need to be an AI engineer. You do not need a polished case study. If you’re using AI, building with it, responsible for decisions about it, teaching it, studying it, concerned about it, or just trying to understand what it means for your work, you belong in the room.
The point is simple: people talking, comparing notes, sharing ideas, and helping shape what a useful Northeast Ohio AI community looks like.
Free event. Cash bar. Cash menu. Live music. Good people.
