SUMMARY:AI Show & Tell — Porto
DESCRIPTION:AI is everywhere right now. \n​Everyone is following the hype\, but when you sit down to actually build something\, it’s a different story — there’s a lot to learn\, and the best way to learn how to build AI-native products\, AI workflows\, and agents\, is by doing and talking to those who are actually shipping them. \n​Pixelmatters is opening its doors to the Porto tech community for an evening of raw demos\, honest lessons\, and deep dives into the AI stack. \n​No slides. No theory. Just screens\, workflows\, and honest explanations of what’s working and what isn’t. \n  \n​🛠 What to Expect\n​Whether you’re a designer\, engineer\, or product manager\, junior or senior\, or as long as you’re into AI\, this is for you. \n​Live Build Breakdowns: See how designers\, product managers\, and engineers are actually using AI in their day-to-day work—tools\, setups\, prompts\, pipelines\, and all the messy in-between. \n​Real Demos: No “Hello World” examples. We want to see real examples of how people are building and shipping. \n​Deep Technical Insight: We’ll explore the “how” behind the “what” — integrating MCP servers\, prompt engineering at scale\, agentic architectures\, and post-chat interfaces. \n​The Porto AI Community: Connect with local builders who are navigating the same challenges you are. \n  \n​📅 Agenda\n​17:30 – 18:00: Welcome & Check-in \n​18:00 – 19:30: Live Demos by: \n​Tiago Coelho | CTO at Pixelmatters \n​TBA \n​19:30 – 20:30: Chats & Drinks \n  \n​🎯 Who Should Attend?\n​Designers & Engineers looking to optimize their workflow with AI. \n​Product people shaping the next generation of AI tools. \n​AI Explorers who have moved past the basics and are ready for expert-level conversation. \n​Anyone who believes that the best way to learn is to see things in action. \n  \n​🚀 About Pixelmatters\n​Pixelmatters is a digital product studio.
