"I have great anticipation for this group of innovators and builders to create a community of inclusion for the Ai future development and implementation in Allen county."
"Liked the flow of discussion best - the demo was also cool."
"Limiting the meetings to 16 participants can make it more easy to manage but also limits the benefits to the community. 20 to 24 participants would strike a good balance."
"The informal discussion about what people were doing - we heard from everyone. The venue (Swizzle) is awesome!"
