Events
Upcoming AI events in Los Angeles
AI meetups, hackathons and conferences coming up in the area, refreshed from organizer calendars.
- Nov11Google AI Deep Dive (Ep 5) - Discriminative (Jev/DiffusionGemma) modelsWed, Nov 11 · 5:00 PM UTCLos Angeles Enterprise AI Important: Register on the event website to receive the joining link. (rsvp on meetup will NOT receive anything). This is virtual event for our AI global community, please double-check your local time. Can't make it live? Register anyway to receive the webinar recording. The AI Deep Dive Series is a hands-on virtual initiative designed to empower developers to architect the next generation of Agentic AI. Moving beyond basic prompting, this series guides you through the complete engineering lifecycle using Google’s advanced stack. You will master the transition from local Gemini CLI environments to building intelligent agents with the Agent Development Kit (ADK) and Model Context Protocol (MCP), culminating in the deployment of secure, collaborative Agent-to-Agent (A2A) ecosystems on Google Cloud Run. Join us to build AI systems that can truly reason, act, and scale. Workshop: Getting started with Discriminative (Jev/DiffusionGemma) models Speaker: Christina Lin (Google) Venue: Virtual, join from anywhere More virtual sessions: Dec 4th: AI Deep Dive with Google Ep 6. RSVP
- Nov14Google Agentic AI Builder Lab - LASat, Nov 14 · 10:00 PM UTCLos Angeles Enterprise AI Important: Register on the event website is required for admission. RSVP on meetup is turned off. Building Next Gen Autonomous Agentic Systems with Google - Los Angeles Join Google and AICamp for an intensive, 90-minute in-person build lab where theory translates directly into functional software. Most AI tutorials stop at simple single-turn prompts, but scalable systems require autonomous agents that reason over live data, manage persistent context, and execute complex multi-step tasks. In this hands-on workshop, you will step beyond conversational interfaces to architect, configure, and deploy next-generation autonomous agentic systems using Google Cloud. Bring your laptop! This is an active engineering session with zero local setup required. You will leave with a fully functioning system running in your cloud environment. What We'll Do: Autonomous Task Orchestration: Configure multi-step agent workflows that plan, reason, and act across complex task flows. State & Tool Integration: Connect agent architectures to cloud tools, execution environments, and live datasets. Resilient System Design: Implement robust patterns built to manage complex runtime inputs, long-running processes, and error recovery. Agenda: \- 5:00pm\~5:30pm: Checkin\, food and networking \- 5:30pm\~7:30pm: Hands\-on workshop/Code labs \- 7:30pm\~8:00pm: Build your own projects \- 8:00pm\~8:30pm: Demo\, Open discussion and Mixer Hands-on Workshop: Building Resilient Asynchronous Agents Moving beyond conversational chatbots requires systems that do more than predict the next token. Real-world autonomous architectures must plan multi-step operations, interface with external tools, maintain state across asynchronous operations, and recover cleanly from runtime failures. In this intensive 90-minute, in-person masterclass hosted by Googl
