Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial Library, Washington Dc
A hands-on AI-focused summit where community members showcase what they built during a Civics and Elections build cycle and kick off the next Retrospective build cycle.
What happens when everyday professionals start building with AI? Come see for yourself. This isn't a conference about the future of work—it's a hands-on demonstration of it. Join us for The Upskilling Labs' Summit, where our community takes the stage to show what they built over the Civics and Elections build cycle, and we kick off what's next: A Retrospective. Why civics and elections? Why a Retrospective? These are foundational sectors—ones that are critical to the future of our country, and where AI will immensely reshape how work gets done. We believe that disruption in sectors this important shouldn't happen to people. It should happen with them. That's why we're building a community where professionals from all backgrounds can learn, experiment, and shape how these tools show up in the real world.Our Upskiller community has come a long way in a short time. In Q4, we'll test what an 8 week build cycle might look like, throwing a few of our very own organizational problems into the mix, inviting our community to build with us. The evening: 4:30pm - Arrive, mingle, connect with the community, and explore the tabling area featuring projects built by The Upskilling Labs' community.
