OC AI Unconference & Potluck

Description

A laid-back evening for local AI and tech folks to meet, swap ideas, and have real conversations—no stage, no pitches, and no fixed agenda. This is an unconference: bring a topic, question, demo, argument, or half-formed idea about AI or technology. We’ll propose topics together, see what people are excited to discuss, and start talking. Conversations can split, merge, wander, and continue over food. It’s also a potluck. Bring a dish, snack, or non-alcoholic drink to share if you can. Coming empty-handed is completely fine—the event is free, and nothing will be sold. Hosted by Vivek Haldar, John Moh, and Mike Dorado. There are no sponsors and no vendors. This is simply a community-run gathering for thoughtful, curious people.
