LAMS General Meeting

Tue, Nov 17, 3:30 AM

From Los Angeles Mycological Society -- LA's Mushroom Club

4.8

Speaker: Ethan Saso **Program: “Klados: Democratizing Identification for Community Scientists”** Community science is very good at recruiting observers, but prospective naturalists often hit a wall of inaccessibility when trying to identify what they find. The existing resources for this process can be expensive, out of print, out of date, or just too dense to be digested by a newcomer to the field. Klados, a community science platform for identification resources, provides a free alternative built on structured morphological data and designed to remove barriers to entry. This talk will examine what features and techniques we use to differentiate species, how taxonomists already think in machine-readable terms, and how structuring morphology can provide holistic resources for identification. More information about LAMS events, including a biography of the speaker, is available on the [LAMS Calendar](https://lamushrooms.org/events/) page. Directions to the community center are on the [LAMS Locations](https://lamushrooms.org/locations/) page.

Google Agentic AI Builder Lab - LA

Sat, Nov 14, 10:00 PM

From Los Angeles Enterprise AI

4.6

**Important**: Register on the [event website](https://www.aicamp.ai/event/eventdetails/W2026111117)[ ](https://www.aicamp.ai/event/eventdetails/W2026111217)is required for admission. RSVP on meetup is turned off. Building Next Gen Autonomous Agentic Systems with Google - Los Angeles Join Google and AICamp for an intensive, 90-minute in-person build lab where theory translates directly into functional software. Most AI tutorials stop at simple single-turn prompts, but scalable systems require autonomous agents that reason over live data, manage persistent context, and execute complex multi-step tasks. In this hands-on workshop, you will step beyond conversational interfaces to architect, configure, and deploy next-generation autonomous agentic systems using Google Cloud. Bring your laptop! This is an active engineering session with zero local setup required. You will leave with a fully functioning system running in your cloud environment. **What We'll Do:** * Autonomous Task Orchestration: Configure multi-step agent workflows that plan, reason, and act across complex task flows. * State & Tool Integration: Connect agent architectures to cloud tools, execution environments, and live datasets. * Resilient System Design: Implement robust patterns built to manage complex runtime inputs, long-running processes, and error recovery. **Agenda:** \- 5:00pm\~5:30pm: Checkin\, food and networking \- 5:30pm\~7:30pm: Hands\-on workshop/Code labs \- 7:30pm\~8:00pm: Build your own projects \- 8:00pm\~8:30pm: Demo\, Open discussion and Mixer **Hands-on Workshop: Building Resilient Asynchronous Agents** Moving beyond conversational chatbots requires systems that do more than predict the next token. Real-world autonomous architectures must plan multi-step operations, interface with external tools, maintain state across asynchronous operations, and recover cleanly from runtime failures. In this intensive 90-minute, in-person masterclass hosted by Google and AICamp, you will move directly into active engineering. Working entirely inside Google Cloud Shell, you will build and deploy a next-generation autonomous agentic system from the ground up—wiring dynamic tool calling, state management, and resilient multi-step orchestration into a cohesive, runnable architecture. No slides, no abstract theory, and zero local setup required. Bring your laptop, build alongside Google engineers, and leave with a fully functional autonomous system running live in the cloud.

DBSA San Gabriel Valley Monday In-Person Meetings

Sat, Nov 14, 3:00 AM

From San Gabriel Valley Depression and Bipolar Support

4.9

7 to 9 pm. **Please be there by 7 pm because the doors to the building lock.** Latecomers can still be let in. Support Groups Can Change Gene Expression Which Triggers Bipolar Disorder and Depression. Although DBSA (Depression and Bipolar Support Alliance) support groups are 94% effective in helping bipolar (manic depressive) or clinically depressed members with treatment adherence, another important benefit is the ability to create a social network with others sharing a condition friends or loved ones may not understand because they simply haven’t “been there.” For such individuals living in isolation, the science of epigenetics has conclusively demonstrated that this can be a life-changing or life-saving experience to an extent surprising to many immunologists and psychologists. In The Social Life of Genes: Shaping Your Molecular Composition, David Dobbs writes [italics mine]: “If you actually measure stress, using our best available instruments, it can’t hold a candle to social isolation. Social isolation is the best-established, most robust social or psychological risk factor for disease out there. Nothing can compete.” “You can’t change your genes. But if we’re even half right about all this, you can change the way your genes behave—which is almost the same thing. By adjusting your environment you can adjust your gene activity… “Despite these well-known effects, Cole said he was amazed when he started finding that social connectivity wrought such powerful effects on gene expression.” What this means is that the same genetic traits that cause a bipolar or depressive condition to manifest itself can be countered by a positive and supportive social support environment to the point the same gene expression is reduced in severity and can even become manageable. This is how, and why these groups WORK. A lack of a social support environment, and the accompanying loneliness, has some predictable outcomes… The Lethality of Loneliness We are social animals. We were never meant to be alone. Air pollution increases yours odds of an early death by 5%, obesity by 20%, alcohol by 30%, and living with loneliness by 45%. If you are outside the Los Angeles County area and would like to find a support group near you, click here.
