Binh will cover lessons learned from working with agents, his approach to strengthen both systems, and why good judgment has become even more important. Speakers Profile 🎙 By Binh, a software engineer at Momos, a Series A startup building customer platforms and AI agents for brands. 2) Everything I Hate About Computer Vision (And Why I'm Still Doing It) Computer vision often breaks in the real world, but every failed edge case is a roadmap to a more robust system. Anand will share how they turn the technical challenges of production into reliable safety solutions at Invigilo.

Hackerschool Week 13: Build Your Own Coding Agent 🗓 Tuesday, 14 April 6:30-8:30 pm 📍 SR13 @ COM3-01-22 🧁 Refreshments will be served! Writing code is great, but building something that writes code for you is a step above. AI Coding Agents are the next big thing in software engineering, moving beyond simple chat boxes to autonomous systems that can navigate repositories, fix bugs, and implement features on their own. In this workshop we will dive into the core mechanics of agentic AI: planning, tool-calling and feedback loops. You’ll learn how to "hook up" an LLM to a file system and a terminal, creating a functional agent that can actually execute tasks within a codebase. Before the session, make sure you have the followng set up! - Install git - Install uv - Install Python 3.14.2 through uv - Get an api key from Groq and Exa NUS Sign ups here Non-NUS Sign ups here
