What is AI Tinkerers?

AI Tinkerers is a meetup designed exclusively for practitioners who possess technical, machine learning, and entrepreneurial backgrounds and are actively building and working with foundation models, such as large language models (LLMs) and generative AI. If you’re deeply passionate about creating LLM-enabled applications, have hands-on experience in building such systems, and are eager to connect with like-minded individuals who share your level of commitment, then this group is the perfect fit for you. With AI Tinkerers meetups taking place in multiple cities, we cater to a dedicated community of practitioners.

Bring your latest projects and be ready to showcase your work to a community of like-minded individuals who are just as passionate about AI and machine learning as you are. Whether you’re working on LLMs, generative AI, or any innovative application of artificial intelligence, we want to see what you’ve been tinkering with!

Make sure you register with an active Github profile! After review you will receive an acceptance email if you make the cut.

Who is this for?

👉 It’s AI Tinkerers, not AI generalists. We screen attendance to active builders with a shared level of expertise in order to create a collaborative environment ideal for early-stage discovery and innovation.

👉 This meetup is for you if:

  • You’re actively tinkering with LLMs and generative AI
  • You’ve built something you’re eager to share with other like-minded builders
  • You have a technical, machine learning, or entrepreneurial background
  • You’re passionate about pushing the boundaries of AI technology
  • You have an active Github profile where you are showing projects that you are working with foundational models or managed LLM services (hobby/toy projects work)

👉 Please note: This event is not suitable for those looking to enter the field, individuals seeking to market their services, angel investors aiming to connect with prospective founders, or professionals looking for early-stage clients
