Intro to AI Agents — we’ve started!

User: "Why does AI always misunderstand my request?"
Their prompt: "that thing from yesterday"

Last Saturday, we kicked off our first session with a diverse group of students, data scientists, analysts, software engineers, QA engineers, project managers, and founders.

Nikita Severin took us from AI fundamentals to modern LLMs. It was a lot of material to cover — and we’re happy to report that everyone survived this trial by dense LLM theory!

Let's see how many survive the next one... 😈
