On July 2nd we'll be joined by Roger Carvalho - creator of Clipbeam.
In this talk Roger will discuss how to build a cross platform desktop app that can take advantage of AI capabilities without relying on cloud-based APIs.
We'll be taking a look at Clipbeam - a collection of JavaScript and native modules that allow content extraction from webpages, files and audio, auto tagging & categorization of content, RAG with semantic search, and an AI chatbot with voice capabilities that runs entirely on a user’s device.
🍕🍻 Pizza and drinks will be provided thanks to sponsorship from Puck - the open source visual editor for React.
In-person attendees: Please arrive at Runway East (ground floor) between 19:00 and 19:15 for refreshments and socializing. Make sure you are registered to attend so we have an idea of numbers for catering.
Remote attendees: To be confirmed. This event may not be streamed. We'll update in this thread when we know more.
Don't forget to join the Async Slack for updates.
