Hosting Local LLMs + Open Source AI Stack

Run useful AI on your own machine and understand the open-source stack behind it. Local models give you control over where your data goes, when your models change and how your AI tools connect to the rest of your systems. This Dublin AI Week evening brings together practical talks and a hands-on workshop for people who want to move beyond hosted chat interfaces and understand what it takes to run AI locally. In collaboration with the CHAI Dublin community. What we will cover Schedule Bring a laptop for the workshop. Setup guidance will be shared with approved guests before the event. Who it is for Software engineers, AI and ML practitioners, technical founders, data scientists, product builders and anyone experimenting with open-source or private AI infrastructure. You do not need to have run a local model before, but you should be comfortable installing developer tools and working through a guided technical setup.
