Coffeehouse by Ode with Anthropic

Ode is putting on our next Coffeehouse, and this time we're doing it 58 floors up. Expect 360° views from the top of Salesforce Tower to go with the demos. Ode's Coffeehouse events are for practitioners. They're very real, engineer-to-engineer; a semi-formal gathering about real engineering solutions with real questions, not necessarily tidy talks or pitches. This edition will feature a demo by Rob Mee from Mechanical Orchid, formerly Pivotal Labs. Full lineup to be announced soon. You'll be able to grab light bites and great coffee (with decaf options) while we dive into the nitty-gritty of applied gen AI, share debugging disasters, and maybe solve each other's thorniest problems. It's going to be a great group, so come ready to get your hands dirty in conversation. A few practical notes: this event is invite-only with a hard capacity and no +1's, so RSVPs are confirmed by name — you'll check in at the lobby and we'll get you up the elevator. Doors at 5:30 PM. We love recruiters but please none at this event to keep it engineer-focused! Thank you.
