Presented by Mind Model AI
Held on October 3, 2025, from 5 PM to 8:30 PM at YourSandboX in Kitchener, we took attendees on a fast-paced, non-technical journey through the year’s most striking AI breakthroughs. We explored autonomous reasoning agents, global AI geopolitics, and emerging tools like parenting tech that designs allergen introduction schedules, meal plans, and home makeovers. The session highlighted how software has become more personal, automation increasingly event-driven, and robotics more human-centered. Discussion also touched on the rapid pace of change and the uncertainty it brings, offering context, practical examples, and insights that made AI feel understandable and empowering.
We explain AI in plain language so everyone can understand it.
Everything we teach connects to real work, life, and impact.
Technology should empower people, not replace them.
