Cloud Run is a fully managed, serverless platform: deploy and run containerized applications, scaling automatically from zero to thousands of instances.

Cloud Run delivers the flexibility of standard containers (Docker, OCI) with the simplicity of a true serverless model. Operators deploy code written in any language (Go, Python, Java, Node.js) directly onto Google's infrastructure. The platform handles 100% of the operational overhead: provisioning, patching, and scaling. Crucially, it scales your service instantly based on request load, including scaling down to zero when idle, meaning you only pay for the exact CPU time consumed. This focus shifts your team's effort entirely to feature development, not infrastructure management.

## Recent Public Talks and Demos

### [Agentic video editing pipeline](https://montreal.aitinkerers.org/talks/rsvp_5bqTjWicF8s)

After interviewing 50+ video editors, head of marketing, film directors, we found the boring part of the professional video editing job that can be automated. I will demo the main video ingestion workflow: transcode to 480p using ffmpeg, upload that video to GCS, takes some frames and use it for classification, ask gemini to look at the video for video understanding, piping the audio to assemblyai for the transcript, use ffmpeg to segment the video, use gemini embedding on each segment so it is searchable.

### [Claude Code for Patent Prosecution](https://cologne.aitinkerers.org/talks/rsvp_0141nYwU_RQ)

"Claude Code for Patent Prosecution," features an agent designed to support and automate the prosecution of patents at the European Patent Office (EPO). The demo showcases the end-to-end pipeline: from a highly reliable, exact ingestion of dense technical PDF documents, through an AI review process constrained by strict EPO guidelines, all the way to generating native .docx files with "track changes" enabled for attorney review.

### [MCP Apps: Shipping Interactive UIs with a Translation Server](https://cologne.aitinkerers.org/talks/rsvp_WllqXAqGhlM)

Four live demos adding interactive Views to a production MCP server using ext-apps. Demo 1: side-by-side translation diff with glossary term highlighting and model quality comparison. Demo 2: D3 force-directed network graph exploring 10k+ glossary terms across 30 languages. Demo 3: inline glossary marketplace -- browse, preview, one-click install. Demo 4: drop a product photo, Gemini OCR extracts text, DeepL translates it, Imagen 3 regenerates the image with culturally adapted people and scenery. All rendering inline in the chat, all calling back to the server from the iframe.

### [Build an LLM and RAG-based Chat Application with AlloyDB and Vertex AI](https://pereira.aitinkerers.org/talks/rsvp_JG2zcfhm9MI)

In this session, we will explore how to overcome the knowledge limitations of language models using Recall Augmented Generation (RAG). We will analyze a robust architecture on Google Cloud that uses AlloyDB for the storage and semantic search of vector embeddings, allowing the model to access private information in real time. We will see how the MCP Toolbox acts as secure middleware to manage database operations and how Gemini Pro in Vertex AI synthesizes this information to deliver accurate, multimodal, and context-rich responses.

### [Building a Digital Supermax: Architecting Air-Gapped Runtimes for Untrusted Agents](https://dc.aitinkerers.org/talks/rsvp__aic7NqY23M)

I will walk through my design of a system capable of hosting isolated, zero egress, OpenClaw/ClawdBot/MoltBot instances. The system is, in principle, scalable to all AI agents. I can discuss the cloud infrastructure that makes this possible at the network level and still allows OpenClaw to run as root within the VM while allowing end-users to run untrusted code. Think: Codex Cloud but for OpenClaw.

### [The AI-First Development Workflow](https://st-louis.aitinkerers.org/talks/rsvp_VHAgcAJsbGY)

This presentation details a paradigm shift in software engineering where AI is the primary builder and the human is the Principal Orchestrator. The Core: It replaces traditional human team roles with specialized, adversarial AI agents. The Rigor: It implements the Planning Gauntlet (Architect/Critique/Revise) and the Hardening Cycle (Review/Fix/Test) to ensure that solo output meets industrial production standards. The Impact: It enables a single engineer to operate as a full-force squad, delivering mission-critical software with zero-drift and zero-bug tolerance. This presentation describes the workflow I've developed building production software using AI at my day job (IntelePeer) as well as in my side projects (IgnitionAI)

### [Shipping AI for Good with LLM-as-Judge Evals](https://nyc.aitinkerers.org/talks/rsvp_Iv0GfB9IJjk)

Immigrants facing detainment need urgent, clear answers but face dense legal docs. This critical gap inspired me to build a tool to provide immediate support in a high-stakes situation. I built a bilingual (EN/ES) RAG chatbot that provides instant, conversational answers to immigration questions, drawing from trusted non-profit legal FAQs.

### [EZ Bomberman: a vybe-coded, multiplayer online game that scales](https://montreal.aitinkerers.org/talks/rsvp_mBPKmNCmMCs)

During this demo, the audience will participate in a live, 5-minute tournament of EZ Bomberman. We will have a leaderboard that shows the winners, and we can stream the games live on the big screen. EZ Bomberman is a multiplayer game inspired from Bomberman that I built on GCP. The architecture allows the game to scale from 0 to thousands of concurrent players seamlessly.

### [Vinchy: AI-Powered Fit Matching and Virtual Try-On for the Real-World Body (Prefer to do Science Fair)](https://seattle.aitinkerers.org/talks/rsvp_6N2EwXqJpNw)

Vinchy is a personalized fashion platform that uses AI to help users find clothes that actually fit their unique bodies. At our booth, we’ll demonstrate our proprietary fit engine, which compares a user’s body measurements to a large database of hand-measured garments and returns only those that fit well—down to the centimeter. Visitors can try our real-time virtual try-on feature, which superimposes well-fitted clothing onto their own photo. We'll also showcase how users can discover others with similar bodies, fostering a new kind of social commerce built around real fit, not aspirational sizing. Our setup will include live demos of the tailored search engine, AI stylist feedback, and outfit-of-the-day feed filtered by measurement similarity.

### [Using NLP/ML and cloud functions to automate peer groups.](https://nyc.aitinkerers.org/talks/rsvp_MZuKe3l91uQ)

Code walk through of a VueJS front end launching late 2024 or early 2025 using machine learning/NLP over GCP cloud functions, Firestore / Cloud Run backend to automatically create peer groups. Would show Python code over Google Cloud Functions (gen2) using models (not actual subscribers!) we've been using in development in code calling SpaCy libraries and Regex functions to extract keywords, and then use those, currently in a Dice/Sorenson algorithm on web-based device (phone or laptop) to create peer groups.
