Join us for the December edition of the New York AI Engineers Tech Talk.
Holiday Party Theme
While much of tech is cutting perks faster than a startup burns runway, NY AI Engineers is doubling down on joy! This December, we’re throwing a holiday party disguised as a Tech Talk—because who says learning can’t come with a side of spiked eggnog? Whether you’ve just survived another hiring freeze, a reorg with a “fun new acronym,” or a company Slack channel called #cost-optimization, come recharge with your fellow engineers. We may not have stock option plans, but we’ve got the holiday vibes, great drinks, and banging pizza.
Dress Code
Ugly sweaters, uglier weather, and your most optimistic GPU jokes.
Food & Drink
Bartenders will be servicing:
Selection of beer and hard seltzer
Red, white, rose, and sparkling wine
Holiday-themed mixed drinks
Soft drinks and non-alc beer
Pizza provided by L'Industrie Pizzeria(https://www.theinfatuation.com/new-york/reviews/lindustrie-pizzeria), one of NYC's highest rated pizza shops.
Our Tech Talk Series
A monthly gathering focused exclusively on AI engineering. Each month, we invite three AI engineers to share something they’ve built, the challenges they faced, and how they solved them. It’s all substance, no fluff, designed for engineers by engineer. Whether you’re a seasoned machine learning engineer or a fullstack dev curious about how to work with LLMs, this is your space to dive deep into real-world projects, technical challenges, and creative solutions.
