SUMMARY:Starburst AI Meetup: Building an agent for your data - the good\,
  the bad\, the ugly
DESCRIPTION:Come join Starburst at their office in Boston for an AI-cente
 red meetup. We will have food\, drinks\, and a fun night of talking about
  building AI Agents! Our speaker for the meetup will be Alex Albu\, Sr. S
 taff Engineer at Starburst. \n\nHere is what he will talk about:\nEveryon
 e's building AI agents that query databases. Most of them work fine on a 
 toy dataset in a demo. Fewer survive contact with real enterprise data – 
 distributed across dozens of sources\, governed by access controls\, quer
 ied by users who have no idea what the schema looks like. Even fewer have
  to do that using a wide variety of models.\n\nThis talk is about what we
  actually learned shipping an AI agent on top of a distributed SQL query 
 engine at Starburst. We'll cover the specific ways things broke and how w
 e fixed them. You'll leave with an honest picture of what production AI a
 gent work looks like\, and a handful of specific techniques that made a r
 eal difference.\n\nAgenda for the meetup:\n6:00 PM - Network\n6:30 PM - A
 lex Albu's session\n7:00 PM - *Potential additional speaker\n7:30 PM - Ne
 tworking\, games\, and drinks
