What Open Agents Can Actually Do: A Meetup with Together AI & NVIDIA

When: Wednesday, July 1 · 5:00 PM – 8:30 PM
Where: San Francisco
Listed by: Lu.ma — Gen AI SF

What happens when AI agents stop working in isolation and start working together? James Zou (Head of Frontier Agents, Together AI) and Venkat Srinivasan (Research Scientist, NVIDIA) are approaching that question from two directions, one from the research frontier, one from the model side, and finding they're working on the same problem. James will share what his team (authors of EinsteinArena and DSGym) is learning about collective agent intelligence: how agents that collaborate, compete, and build on each other's work are driving scientific discovery at a pace no single model could match, and what open infrastructure makes that possible.Venkat brings the model side of the picture: a founding engineer at NexusFlow AI now working on the Nemotron model at NVIDIA, with a view on what open models need to do to power the next generation of agentic systems.An engaging fireside chat and then the rest of the evening is yours. Stay for the food, the tap wall, the hallway conversations, and the end of the World Cup on the big screen.Come curious.

Keycard Workshop @ AI Engineer World's Fair

111 Minna Gallery and Event Space — Yerba Buena

Your agents are reaching for real tools and real data. The risk isn't the capable agent, it's the standing secret it holds.

When: Wednesday, July 1
Where: 111 Minna Gallery and Event Space — Yerba Buena

Your agents are reaching for real tools and real data. The risk isn't the capable agent, it's the standing secret it holds. One long-lived API key sitting in an agent's environment is one prompt injection or Shai-Hulud away from being read out. At AI Engineer World's Fair, Keycard is running a hands-on workshop where you build the answer on your own machine. We'll serve lunch and then you'll build a custom support-escalation MCP server in TypeScript (Express, Streamable HTTP), and lock down both the server and everything it touches with Keycard, end to end. You'll leave having built a server with three tools: Read support tickets, where the user's identity is swapped for a read-only credential so no standing key ever sits in your serverEscalate to engineering, where an LLM scrubs the PII before posting a clean issue to Linear using a write-scoped credentialDelete an escalation, which asks for a scope your policy refuses to grant What you'll learn: Why standing secrets are the real risk in agentic systems, and how to build them so your server never holds oneHow to give each tool exactly the access it needs, and nothing moreHow to trace every hop of an agent delegation chain in a complete audit trailHow to set policy that blocks an over-permissioned action Bring a laptop with Node and npm, a GitHub account, and your local coding agent (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, or Copilot). TypeScript familiarity is strongly preferred. You'll walk out with a governed escalation server you built, and a clear pattern for securing every agent you ship next. Join us if you're building MCP servers or agentic systems and want to learn how to control access to your server and the resources behind it.
