/ About this event

AI is moving fast. Too fast.

Generative AI can write, design, and create. Agentic AI can decide, act, and iterate. But what does that actually mean for your product, your business, and your workflow?

Join developers, founders, and AI practitioners for a no-hype conversation about the real differences, practical applications, and where the technology is headed—plus hands-on time to experiment.

You'll walk away with:

Clear distinction between generative and agentic AI (what they do, where they excel, and when to use each) Real use cases from practitioners building with these tools in production Hands-on workshop: Build an agentic workflow or deploy a generative model in 45 minutes Direct access to experts and peers asking the same questions you are

Who should attend: Developers, product leaders, founders, technical operators, students in tech, anyone building or curious about AI's role in their workflow or product—especially those creating for underserved communities.

What's included: Expert panel with live AMA, hands-on AI workshop, networking with purpose, refreshments, and resources from Stripe.

October 14th, 6-9pm PT
