"Build an AI Assistant (agentic agent)"

​Build Your Own AI Assistant ​This isn't a panel. It isn't a "what is AI" intro. It isn't a talk or a demo. It's a hands-on workshop where you actually build the thing. ​Bring your laptop. Open it. We're actually going to build. ​Don't worry about your skill level. As long as you've used Claude Cowork at least once, you're good. ​WHAT YOU WALK OUT WITH ​By the time you leave, you'll have: ​An AI set up with the basics about you (priorities, projects) so you stop re-explaining yourself every single chat ​One real workflow built and saved as a reusable skill. Run live at least twice so you KNOW it works. ​An AI that triages your email and drafts replies in YOUR voice (you still hit send) ​An agent that keeps you on track with your long-term goals ​Text reminders so you don't drop the ball on the important stuff ​A morning brief of your day so you know what's coming ​A social schedule scraped from Luma, Meetup, etc. so you actually make it to the good stuff ​And MORE ​You WILL walk out with a fully functioning agent. That's the promise.
