SWARM – Data people building with AI agents

All agesThu
📅 23 Apr 2026
📍 M4 1DZ

Something's shifted. The people who've spent years deep in data - the analysts, the engineers, the consultants - are building with AI agents now. And it's the most exciting thing in a decade. New tools. New workflows. Whole new ways of thinking about what data work even means. Everyone's experimenting. Everyone's learning. Nobody's done this before. We couldn't find a community in the UK for people doing this work. So we're starting one. In pubs, with laptops, sharing what's actually working. No slides. No pitches. No lanyard energy. Just people who build things, showing each other what they've built. Bring your terminal. Bring your questions. Bring the thing that's half-working and you can't figure out why.

Software Crafters Manchester

All agesThu
📅 21 May 2026
📍 M3 4AP

For our next Software Crafters Manchester meetup, we'll be hosting an "unconference" style event focused on the topic of "Quality in the Age of AI Engineering". As AI becomes deeply embedded in how software is built, the standards, practices, and judgement calls that define quality are being fundamentally challenged. This event promises an evening of engaging discussions, knowledge sharing, and networking opportunities for engineers, tech leads, and engineering leaders grappling with what it means to maintain (and raise) the bar in an AI-driven world. Format: Our Senior Software Craftspeople Alasdair Smith and Lee Sanderson will kick off the evening with their own reflections on the topic of software quality and how this is evolving in the era of AI generated. We then want to give everyone attending an opportunity to shape the agenda to focus on your preferences. Our event will therefore be run "unconference" style where you'll be given the chance to co-create the topics to be discussed. Some ideas to get you started include: What does quality even mean when AI is generating, reviewing, and testing our code? How do we build engineering cultures that hold the line on craft when the pressure to ship with AI is immense? Where does accountability sit when a defect originates in AI-generated code? What quality frameworks, standards, and practices are actually holding up — and which need rethinking? How should engineering leaders be measuring and incentivising quality in AI-assisted teams?

AI + Coffee Manchester

Sun
📅 5 Jul 2026
📍 M3 4FP

"AI + Coffee" is a bi-weekly drop-in in Manchester for anyone curious about AI, regardless of role or experience. No speakers. No slides. No agenda. We meet every two weeks, usually on Sunday at 11:00am. \~60 minutes, in person, over coffee. The conversation moves fast. The coffee is optional. The format is deliberately simple because that's the point: A space where a developer, a marketer, and someone who opened ChatGPT for the first time last week can sit in the same room and have a real conversation. No expectation to perform, and no such thing as a silly question. Most AI events are designed to inform. "AI + Coffee" is designed to connect and provide a safe space for everyone to get involved in conversations about AI, it's somewhere to be uncertain in public without it feeling like a professional risk. Come with a question, come with something you've been trying, or come with nothing prepared.
