Welcome to the AI meetup in Montreal. Join us for deep dive tech talks on AI, GenAI, LLMs and Agents, hands-on experiences on code labs, workshops, and networking with speakers and fellow developers.
Agenda:
* 5:30pm~6:20pm: Checkin, Food and Networking
* 6:20pm~6:30pm: Welcome/community update
* 6:30pm~8:00pm: Tech talks and Q&A
* 8:00pm: Open discussion & Mixer
Tech Talk: The Moor Edge: Moorcheh ITS Vector Search Engine on Arduino Uno Q
Speaker: Dr. Majid Fekri, CTO & Co-Founder, Moorcheh.ai
Abstract: A live code review and hardware demonstration showcasing the Moorcheh Information-Theoretic Search (ITS) search engine running entirely locally. Majid will walk through the privacy-preserving retail kiosk pipeline, demonstrating how the hardware searches its persistent memory and generates real-time answers—entirely offline. By running a full vector search and quantized local LLM natively on the Arduino UNO Q (3.6GB), we are proving that enterprise-grade agentic memory doesn't require massive compute.
Tech Talk: Gen Edge AI: Reasoning, Agentic Memory, and Physical Intelligence
Speaker: Tara Khani, CEO & Co-Founder, Moorcheh.ai
Abstract: Tara will detail how resource-efficient agentic memory structures serve as the missing layer for physical AI. As AI workflows transition from static RAG to autonomous coding agents (like Cursor and Claude Code), traditional vector databases introduce a catastrophic "RAM Tax" and passive retrieval bottlenecks. This session covers the architecture of Memanto by Edge AI Innovations, an open-source active memory agent built on an Information-Theoretic semantic engine. We will break down how to replace passive data ingestion with a three-primitive memory loop (remember, recall, answer) that gives agents persistent, cross-session context.
