About this event
**Registration: please read.** This event is inside Accenture’s building, so security needs every attendee’s full name in advance. Please bring that ID on the night. No name, no entry.
Two practical talks for people building with AI: one on what an agent really is under the hood, and one on why so many AI projects never make it past the demo.
Co-hosted with The Syntax Social.
**What Is an Agent, Really? Building a Coding Harness from Scratch**
*Emily Price, Data Engineer, Accenture*
What exactly is an agent? How does a harness work? Emily struggled to find straightforward answers to these questions, so she built an agentic coding harness herself. She’ll share how she went about it and what she’s learned as she’s added features, with a live demo of the harness in action and a comparison with more fully featured harnesses.
Emily is a Data Engineer at Accenture, with experience in big data processin
