AI Tinkerers - Builders day — Baseline, November 29, 2025
A hands-on full day of building and experimentation, kindly sponsored by Windsurf.
We’re teaming up with Give(a)Go as our community partner for the day.
Do you get frustrated when your agents get off rails? Are you tired of going back and forth with the agent until it does what you really want it to do? Don’t want to vibe your way through your codebase? If so, this builder day is right for you. We’ll explore spec-driven development and show you how to guide your agents with real structure using architecture docs, product requirement documents and API documentation so your agents do exactly what you want.
Remember, this is not a workshop; it’s a builder day! So expect a lot of hands-on building.
What to expect
- A full-day, hands-on building session focused on prototyping, experimentalition and applied AI/ML tinkering.
- Live, working demos and interactive prototypes rather than slide decks.
- A curated crowd of engineers, researchers, and founders who ship AI at scale.
- We’ll provide the credits and the food.
Schedule
- 11:00 — Doors open.
- 11:30 — Lightning talk from Windsurf
- 11:45 — Mini-primer: PRDs → specs → tests → multi-agent execution. Courtesy of Give(a)Go.
- 12:00–4:30 — Deep work session (heads down, ship things, you will also get food)
- 4:30–5:30 — Demos
