Universidad EAFIT, Block 38, Auditorium 110 (38-110)
This event was about artificial intelligence and GitHub pages. The purpose of this event was about to give information of how to use generative AI for development, Andres show us two tools that we can use for this purpose: GitHub copilot and GitHub codespaces, the first one an extension to use with Visual Studio Code and the second one a development environment where the AI can help you out solving questions about your code and generating PR.
About GitHub pages, Paul show about how to use and activate this tool for publishing webpages for free, leveraging on GitHub infrastructure with zero effort. Useful for people who are starting in development and want to publish your projects using their existing workflow.

The event has two talks. At the end raffles were made and people won GitHub swag.
At the end of the event snacks were given to the attendees having the chance to meet new people. Raffles also were organized so people was able to interact with the speakers. Also during the event the people have the opportunity to ask questions to the speakers.
We have troubles with the projector, one computer wasn't able to connect to projector we have to use the local computer in order to be able to make one presentation. Also at the end of the meeting the raffle and the giveaway of some swag was little messy for the next event we are going to close the event in an more organized way.
It was an event to learn about how to increase our productivity using gen-AI products and launching prototypes faster using GitHub Pages. Thanks for collaboration for the volunteer speakers. The attendance was appropriate and for the next one we're going to use the learnings from this event to keep improving
