AI Demo Night Edinburgh
It looks like a busy few weeks coming up with lost of interesting events in the Scottish technology community. People have been blogging, vlogging and streaming too. I added a “Register on Luma” button to the website for events hosted on the Luma platform, making it a click easier to get tickets. I posted a small demo on Bluesky and on LinkedIn.
