About
Yes, Melbourne’s most optimistic --dangerously-skip-permissions AI meetup is back! In AI time, it feels like years since last month.
No presentations or demos this time. We’ve booked a private space at a great cocktail bar in the Melbourne CBD for a few dozen AI Ops members to chat. Expect an unholy mix of designers, developers, founders and marketers, all tokenmaxxing with AI agents and other tools to 100× their workflows.
(Note: We’ll share the exact venue with accepted guests in Luma).
To keep the group cracked (as they say on X dot com, the everything app), this one’s by application only, with very limited spots. If you don’t get in, don’t worry. We’ll be back with a bigger meetup next month. We meet on the first Wednesday of every month.
Food and drinks are covered, within reason, you ravenous animals, thanks to Grant and the legends the Outlook: AI Conference (please check out our sponsors below).
Agenda
5:30–6:00 pm: Doors open to our private space at a CBD cocktail bar. The exact location will be shared in Luma once you’re accepted.
6:00–8:30 pm: Food is served. Chat with a curated group of designers, developers, founders and marketers burning tokens and using AI to automate their workflows.
8:30 pm: Official finish. Go home and check on your agents, or stay and keep chatting.
