La 12va AI Tinkerers Manizales fue 100% práctico: dos talleres clave, n8n para orquestación visual con un flujo de 11 nodos, y LangChain+Anthropic para reducir latencia con Prompt Caching (de 8.6 a 3.6 s; 45k tokens en caché; thread_id). Invitación a la 13va edición en 2026, grupo de WhatsApp.
Así fue la 11va edición AI Tinkerers Manizales cambia el paradigma hacia 2026 con Performance, Costo y Seguridad. Prototipado No-Code y Google AI Studio para automatizar YouTube (Nano-App). Spec-DD: para robots con user stories, Mermaid y endpoints. Seguridad con MCP y Docker; proxies (Ollama) vs nube; ToDo CLI.
La 10ma edición de AI Tinkerers Manizales avanzó hacia la ingeniería de software moderna: gobernanza con Vibecoding y Dockerización segura, IA Segura para empresas con AnythingLLM y, en el borde, Iris-Tinder y la inferencia de estado de ánimo en MaixCAM, mostrando soluciones biométricas eficientes.
La 9na AI Tinkerers Manizales presentó tres charlas sobre IA y automatización: optimización de contenidos para YouTube (TimeBolt, GPTs, Transcript.lol, 1min.ai); automatización de imágenes, migraciones Drupal; restauración de fotos históricas de Manizales. 62.5% menos edición (4h→1.5h), 177 imágenes en minutos y migraciones de semanas a minutos, ~$24 USD.
AI Tinkerers Manizales is a hands-on AI builder meetup with live demos, technical discussion, and no-pitch networking.
AI Tinkerers Manizales is built for engineers, founders, researchers, product builders, and developers working on AI agents, multimodal and voice interfaces, RAG and knowledge systems, AI coding tools, workflow automation, evals, observability, and production AI infrastructure. Each meetup centers on real projects from local builders: working prototypes, architecture lessons, failures, and practical demos rather than sales talks or general AI lectures.
The Manizales chapter is part of a 231-city global network with 110,000+ members, making AI Tinkerers the world's largest hands-on AI builder community.
Members include AI engineers, ML researchers, developers, founders, and builders from the local Manizales chapter.
A typical AI Tinkerers Manizales meetup runs about three hours with live demos from local builders, technical Q&A, and networking. Demos are expected to show real systems or code, not sales decks.
