SUMMARY:Exploring the Future of Artificial General Intelligence
DESCRIPTION:Join the Austin Forum on Technology & Society for an inspiring and thought-provoking evening as we screen the new documentary\, “The Thinking Game.“ Prepare to delve into one of the most critical conversations of our time: the rise of artificial general intelligence (AGI) and its potential impact on humanity. “The Thinking Game” offers a compelling look at the global race to create the first true AGI. The film provides a balanced perspective\, showcasing the brilliant minds pushing the boundaries of machine intelligence while also confronting the profound ethical dilemmas and existential risks involved. From labs where algorithms learn at an astonishing pace to philosophical debates about consciousness and control\, this documentary challenges us to consider the monumental power we are on the verge of unleashing. If we unleash it\, how do we ensure that an AGI truly aligns with complex human values? “The Thinking Game” brings this question and many others to the forefront. \nDoors – 6:30 \nScreening – 7:00 \nQ&A – 8:30-9:00 \nEngage with the Experts \nFollowing the screening\, don’t miss an exclusive Q&A session with a panel of leading AI researchers and ethicists. This is your opportunity to ask the tough questions and engage in a dynamic discussion about: \n\nThe potential timeline for AGI development.\nThe key differences between today’s AI and true AGI.\nThe societal benefits\, from solving climate change to curing disease.\nThe critical risks\, including misuse\, unintended consequences\, and the control problem.\nAustin’s growing role in the global AI landscape.\n\nWho Should Attend? \nThis event is for everyone—from tech professionals\, developers\, and data scientists to students\, policymakers\, and any community member curious about the future of technology and society. Whether you are deeply embedded in the world of AI or simply want to understand the technology that will shape our future\, this movie night will leave you informed\, inspired\, and ready to be part of the conversation.

SUMMARY:Securing Identity as the First Line of Defense
DESCRIPTION:Beyond the Perimeter: Securing Identity as the First Line of Defense \n​​Please register by July 8th\, 5 PM GMT. \n​​​Meet global tech entrepreneurs\, experts\, and investors on July 11th to discuss the practical applications of cybersecurity. \n​Agenda: \n​5:30 – 6:00 PM: Registration & Networking\n​6:00 – 7:30 PM: Welcome\, Panel Debate & Q&A\nIacob Cozma – ​Founding Partner of Scryer Cybersecurity\nSkyler Wickland – Team Lead – Customer Success at Abnormal AI\nChris Ellerson – President\, Innovation & Client Success at Silent Quadrant \n​The panel will be moderated by Kenneth Holley.\n​7:30 – 9:00 PM: Networking Session \n​In today’s security landscape\, identity is the new perimeter. As organisations adopt cloud services and embrace remote work\, attackers are shifting their focus to identity-based attacks\, with authentication tokens becoming a prime target. \n​We’ll focus specifically on why authentication tokens are such a valuable target for attackers. These tokens act as keys that provide access to cloud resources and applications\, often bypassing passwords and even multi-factor authentication. Long-lived tokens can provide persistent access\, enable lateral movement\, and evade many traditional security controls. \n​In this panel\, we’ll discuss how to defend against these evolving threats. You’ll learn practical strategies for strengthening identity protections\, improving token security\, and integrating endpoint\, cloud\, and identity systems for deeper visibility and faster response. \n​Join us to explore real-world solutions and make identity your first — and strongest — line of defense. \n​Why Attend? \n​Build Genuine Connections: This event is about more than just networking—it’s an opportunity to form meaningful relationships with like-minded professionals passionate about AI and innovation. \n​Global Insights\, Local Focus: Connect with both local Austin talent and a global community online.

SUMMARY:Beyond AI / You're a Startup Building Your Roadmap
DESCRIPTION:Build a Successful Roadmap in the Age of AI\nThe rapid advancements and widespread adoption of Artificial Intelligence are fundamentally changing the business landscape\, creating both unprecedented opportunities and significant challenges. Traditional roadmapping approaches\, often built on more stable assumptions and predictable timelines\, are no longer sufficient to navigate this dynamic environment. \nWe will begin by understanding why the rise of AI necessitates a new approach to strategic planning and how AI itself can be leveraged as a powerful tool throughout the roadmap lifecycle\, from initial ideation and data-driven prioritization to real-time execution monitoring and continuous adaptation. \nKey areas covered will include: \nUnderstanding AI’s impact: Identifying the specific ways AI disrupts traditional planning and creates new avenues for growth. \nIntegrating AI into the roadmap process: Learning how AI can enhance market research\, ideation\, prioritization\, execution\, and monitoring. \nEssential components of an AI-aware roadmap: Discussing the critical considerations around data strategy\, technological infrastructure\, talent development\, and the crucial ethical implications of AI. \nStrategies for success: Exploring how to foster a culture of experimentation\, prioritize high-value AI use cases\, and build the organizational agility needed to thrive in an AI-driven world. \nThis lecture is designed for product managers\, strategists\, business leaders\, and anyone involved in shaping the future direction of their organization in an era defined by artificial intelligence.  \nParticipants will gain practical insights and actionable strategies for building roadmaps that are not only resilient and adaptable but also leverage the transformative power of AI to drive innovation and achieve strategic goals.

SUMMARY:AI as a Modernization Partner\, Not a Silver Bullet
DESCRIPTION:Details\nEvery enterprise has legacy systems that “just work” until they don’t. While AI promises to magically modernize decades-old codebases into cloud-native architectures\, the reality isn’t that cut and dry. \nJoin us as we cut through the hype to show how AI\, combined with the right platforms and cloud infrastructure\, delivers real value in modernization efforts. We’ll explore how AI excels at the grunt work developers hate: code archaeology\, pattern recognition\, and mechanical transformations. You’ll discover why single-model approaches fail and learn practical multi-model strategies that work for you. \nWe’ll cover technical details using Google Cloud and Vertex AI for enterprise-grade model hosting\, whether as a SaaS service or on-premises through Google Distributed Cloud Air-Gapped for organizations with strict data sovereignty requirements. We’ll also show how platforms like Coder can leverage GC infrastructure to provide secure development environments. Additionally\, we’ll share approaches for building stakeholder trust\, and explain why humans remain irreplaceable in the process. Most importantly\, you’ll learn how to build human-AI partnerships that deliver real value. \nWhether you’re dealing with COBOL monoliths or planning your modernization strategy\, this event will give you what you need to leverage AI as a powerful tool in your modernization efforts. \nWhat You’ll Learn \nHow to apply AI to automate code archaeology\, pattern recognition\, and mechanical transformations in legacy systems\nPractical strategies for enterprise-grade AI model hosting using Google Cloud\, Vertex AI\, and Google Distributed Cloud Air-Gapped\nHow to build secure\, scalable human-AI development workflows with platforms like Coder — and why humans remain essential to success\nAgenda\n🕠 5:30 PM – Doors Open/Meet & Greet\n🕡 6:30 PM – 7:30 Presentation\n🕢 7:30 PM – 8:00 PM – Networking\n🍕 Food & Drinks will be provided \nWe recommend using rideshare or public transit to get to the office.\nPlease bring a valid I.D. to check into the event.\nOnce you enter the building\, head to the elevators and you’ll be escorted to the meetup check-in on the 29th floor.
