About this event

Hi Folks! 👋🏽

Join GDG Cloud Kuala Lumpur for a Build with AI community event hosted at the Google Malaysia office. This event is part of the global Build with AI 2026 initiative led by Google Developer Groups worldwide.
Build with AI events are designed to help developers explore the latest advancements in artificial intelligence and learn how to build practical applications using Google’s AI technologies.
At this event, the GDG Cloud KL community will come together to explore modern AI development using tools from the Google ecosystem such as Gemini, Google AI Studio, Vertex AI, and Google Cloud. The focus will be on learning, experimentation, and sharing knowledge within the local developer community.
Participants can expect technical insights, demonstrations, and hands-on exploration of how AI tools can be used to prototype and build real-world solutions.
What to expect:
Introduction to the Build with AI global initiative
Overview of Google’s latest AI tools and developer platforms
Technical talks and demonstrations on building with AI
Hands-on exploration of AI development workflows
Networking with the local developer and AI community

Our team is currently finalizing the agenda and confirming speakers, and additional details will be announced soon. The event will feature experienced community members and industry professionals sharing their insights on building AI-powered solutions.
Whether you are just beginning your journey with AI or already building AI applications, this event is a great opportunity to learn, experiment, and connect with the growing AI developer community in Kuala Lumpur.
More updates, including the full agenda and speaker lineup, will be published shortly.
We look forward to seeing you there.

🔖 The event will be conducted in English.

Agenda

Registration & Check-in
Welcome & GDG Cloud KL Introduction
Dr. Poo Kuan Hoong - The New Superpower for Vibe Coding with Google Antigravity	AI-assisted development is unlocking a new style of building software—often called vibe coding—where ideas flow quickly from thought to implementation. But while tools like Google Antigravity accelerate generation, the real multiplier of performance isn’t just better prompts or faster models. It’s skills. In this talk, we explore how structured skills become the new superpower for developers working with AI systems. Instead of relying on ad-hoc prompting, we show how codifying reusable capabilities—such as reasoning patterns, domain knowledge, debugging strategies, and tool orchestration—can dramatically improve the quality, reliability, and speed of vibe coding workflows. Using practical demonstrations with Google Antigravity, we will show how skill-based approaches enable developers to guide AI systems more effectively, reduce iteration cycles, and move from “vibes” to repeatable, high-performance development. Attendees will learn how to design, organize, and deploy skills that transform AI from a reactive assistant into a powerful collaborative engineer. The future of AI coding isn’t just about better models—it’s about developers who know how to wield skills as their new superpower.
Break
Tong Sheng - Agentic coding automation	This talk introduces the idea of agentic coding, where AI acts like a junior developer that can take a task, work through it step by step, and produce real code. Instead of focusing on complex tools, I’ll demonstrate the core concept: raising a task, spinning up a simple coding environment, letting AI plan and execute the work, and finally generating a pull request. The goal is to show how software development may evolve from writing code to supervising intelligent agents.
Hong Tat Yew - A Minimal AI Software Development Lifecycle That Actually Works with Gemini	With AI in the mix, how do you structure your team’s development process so everyone can use Gemini effectively? Are you seeing inconsistent outputs between you and your teammates? In this session, you’ll learn a minimal, practical AI software development lifecycle that actually works with Gemini, a simple workflow any team can adopt.
