Bio: Tennessee Leeuwenburg is a software developer for the Bureau of Meteorology, a member of the Python Papers editorial team and has been working in Python for around 5 years. His IT interests are in information management, community engagement, artificial intelligence and Open Source in government. His work at the Bureau is visible as automatically generated text weather forecasts which appear on the Bureau of Meteorology website and are distributed to news networks. (contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]) Topic: Out-of-hours, Tennessee has been working on the underpinning for an AI system based in Python, with lofty ambitions but only a pencil and napkin to assist in development. He will be present his ideas for why another AI project is necessary and the early technical designs for the system. Topics covered will include: a brief overview of comparable projects; a discussion of why the project is important; code architecture for the AI agent; and how the project could be run. He would like to use this session to expand his notes and refine the technical ideas, so expect the discussion to go around the room as well as coming from the front.
