1) Thinking Fast and Slow with AI Agents

Kahneman's two systems — fast intuition and slow verification — map directly onto how AI coding agents work and fail. Binh will cover lessons learned from working with agents, his approach to strengthen both systems, and why good judgment has become even more important.

Speakers Profile 🎙
By Binh, a software engineer at Momos, a Series A startup building customer platforms and AI agents for brands.

2) Everything I Hate About Computer Vision (And Why I'm Still Doing It)

Computer vision often breaks in the real world, but every failed edge case is a roadmap to a more robust system. Anand will share how they turn the technical challenges of production into reliable safety solutions at Invigilo.

Speakers Profile 🎙

By Anand, technical Co-Founder of Invigilo AI, shipping "Safety-as-a-Service" computer vision across 10 countries.

Hackerschool Week 13: Build Your Own Coding Agent

🗓 Tuesday, 14 April 6:30-8:30 pm
📍 https://nusmods.com/venues/COM3-01-22?q=com3-01-22
🧁 Refreshments will be served!

Writing code is great, but building something that writes code for you is a step above. AI Coding Agents are the next big thing in software engineering, moving beyond simple chat boxes to autonomous systems that can navigate repositories, fix bugs, and implement features on their own.

In this workshop we will dive into the core mechanics of agentic AI: planning, tool-calling and feedback loops. You’ll learn how to "hook up" an LLM to a file system and a terminal, creating a functional agent that can actually execute tasks within a codebase.

Before the session, make sure you have the followng set up!
- Install https://git-scm.com/install/
- Install https://docs.astral.sh/uv/getting-started/installation/#standalone-installer
- Install Python 3.14.2 through https://docs.astral.sh/uv/guides/install-python/#installing-a-specific-version

1) 5 Years of Working on Python's Performance
Though Python isn't known for speed, its performance has improved tremendously in the past 5 years. Ken Jin covers his part in making CPython faster, from JIT compilers to optimised interpreters. Python's future is faster!

Speakers Profile 🎙
Ken Jin is a Python core team member since 2021, working on the performance of CPython.

2) Synthetic Societies: Building a Simulated Nation From Open Data
What if you could simulate a population to ask it questions? "Ask Singapore" combines NVIDIA's Nemotron dataset with open government data to create 148,000 synthetic citizens. Aayush breaks it down: from the persona generation to asking and using synthetic surveys.

Speakers Profile 🎙
Aayush Mathur spent 2.5 years in Silicon Valley through NOC. He builds AI-powered tools and is obsessed with what one person and AI can create.

Stop pushing broken commits without noticing and start using an automated https://www.redhat.com/en/topics/devops/what-is-ci-cd pipeline with GitHub Actions! In this workshop, we’re taking a normal website and building a free pipeline to build, test, and deploy it automatically.

What we'll do:
• Run automated tests (CI)
• Deploy the game live to GitHub Pages (CD)
• Build and push Docker images to the GitHub Registry

Come learn how to use GitHub Actions to make your life easier and end up with your own deployed website with a full CI/CD pipeline after the workshop!
