Sarasota's friendliest AI conversation. Free Saturday mornings at Hashtag Cafe. No tech background needed. Just bring your curiosity.
About this Event

You've heard about AI. Maybe you've played with it a little. But you're not sure it's really for you — or whether you're missing something big.
That's exactly why I started this group.
I'm Rudy Poe — Emmy-winning filmmaker, serial entrepreneur, and Sarasota local. I have a genuine passion for one thing: making sure curious, experienced people don't get left behind by the AI revolution. That knowledge gap is real, and closing it is my mission.
Spoiler alert — it's easier than you think.
Coffee & AI is a casual Saturday morning conversation for non-technical people who want to understand what AI can actually do in everyday life. No laptops required. No jargon. Just coffee, good conversation, and a few genuine "I didn't know it could do THAT" moments.
I put the human first. You're the one with the wisdom, the experience, and the judgment. AI is just an extraordinary tool — and I'm going to show you how and why you will want to use it.
We meet at Hashtag Cafe on Saturday mornings, 10 to 11am. Come once or come every week. Bring a friend. Bring your questions.
No selling. No pressure. No tech background needed. Just honest conversation about the most life changing tool any of us has ever had access to
