This one-day event features engaging sessions on AI, Mobile, and the latest from Google technologies. Check out the confirmed talks below 👇
Multiplatform to the City - #Mobile
Karan Sharma
Thinking about building a public transport app? This talk covers using Compose Multiplatform (CMP) to support iOS and Android while keeping things native. Beyond the tech—Jetpack Compose, Ktor, SQLDelight, Koin. We’ll explore how to design for real-world use: what data matters most to commuters, how to surface key info quickly, and ways to keep the experience smooth and reliable.
Transforming Engineering Report Writing with Gemini Vision - #AI
Derek Van Tonder & Andrew Davis
Learn how we used Gemini Vision to code a product that automates tedious civil engineering documentation, turning days of work into minutes.
Prezzee + KMP - Transition from native to Multiplatform - #Mobile
Kirill Glushchenko & Carlos Monzón
A case study that elaborates on how we adapted two native mobile apps (Android & iOS) into Multiplatform
Technical challenges and team challenges to be aware.
Content Trust in Chrome: SynthID Meets cheqd #AI
Paul Ashley
Discover how content trust shifts from central servers into users’ hands via microcredentials and micro-fees. In this talk, we’ll illustrate SynthID-based AI-content detection running in-worker, the lifecycle of a cheqd VC, and how CHEQ micropayments overlay a pay-per-scan model on the cheqd network. Through architectural diagrams and annotated code snippets, you’ll see how to compose these pieces, and we’ll cap it with a demo.
Agentic AI with Gemma 3 using Keras #AI
Leong Lai Fong
Gemma is a family of lightweight, generative artificial intelligence (AI) open models. Most common AIs today are reactive. They respond to specific commands, like a smart speaker playing music when asked. They’re useful, but can only do what they’re told. In contrast, Agentic AI is proactive and autonomous. It makes its own decisions to reach goals.
In this session, you will learn how to use Gemma with a form of AI called Agentic AI, which offers a different way to use Large Language Models (LLMs).
Augmented AI Interactions: Enhancing Human Decision-Making Beyond Algorithmic Limits #AI
Mike Nedelko
This session explores how to design AI products that augment, rather than replace, human interaction. Drawing on findings from cognitive science, we’ll examine how System 1 (intuitive) and System 2 (analytical) thinking expose key limitations in current AI solutions. Concepts like implicit bias, coherence, attention, association, and WYSIATI ("What You See Is All There Is") show how users make decisions in ways AI struggles to support fully.
I included a short VDO pitch here: https://youtu.be/TLfcdlx0Bh4
We'll cover:
• How cognitive biases and heuristics impact decision-making and create a “solutions ceiling” for standalone AI.
• Where AI fails to align with System 1 vs. System 2 thinking, leading to poor user outcomes.
• Case studies where AI underperforms in isolation, especially in personalisation, risk, and decision support.
• Innovative design approaches that integrate cognitive science, allowing AI to enhance human judgment instead of replacing it.
