AI Builders Amsterdam - December

AI Builders' December technical meetup at StartDock on Prins Hendrikkade: devtools, APIs, RAG and agent frameworks, with working code rather than slides. On the bill so far, benchmarking LLMs head to head on your own prompts with Orq Arena, and running a legal research agent locally on Gemma 4 instead of in the cloud, plus a third talk to be announced. Walk-in 17:30, pizza at 18:00, talks from 18:30, drinks and networking from 19:15. 20 euro, 10 euro for students and bootstrappers - a contribution to the community rather than a ticket price. Basic LLM knowledge is assumed.

Why go: the only Amsterdam builder room in the week before Christmas, and the local-versus-cloud inference question is one people are making decisions about right now. For AI engineers and founders shipping with generative models.
