Here are our talks for this month:
Talk 1 - AI Adoption for Analytics Normies
Arik Friedman
The fast-paced progress of Generative AI has triggered an existential crisis across coding professions, data science included. Some people thrive at the cutting edge and surf the waves of disruption. This talk is for everyone else: the analysts and data folks on your team who are busy doing great work and haven't had time to figure out what AI means for them.
Talk 2- Did Rob just build a 100% renewable data centre at home in < 24 hours?? Wait, is Tariq speaking to his homespun AI on whatsapp??
Rob Tot & Tariq UrRahman
Rob and Tariq met at Sydney Measurecamp 2026, and are keen to share what they know about data centres and local LLMs at home.
Rob will share a version of his presentation that won best technical talk at Sydney Measurecamp 2026, including how to setup local LLMs at home in about 6 clicks, and also explain his franken-renewable powersource built from Jaycar-MSY-Aldi components.
Tariq will give an outline of his eight month journey building up a multi-GPU based data centre, where he now runs homespun agents providing him with a digital assistant integrated into his phone and other platforms.
