About this event

πŸš€ We’re so back after this *brat* summer! Prepare yourselves for our 4th meetup in 2024.

πŸ‘‹ Join us at the **Five9** office for the Frontend Meetup in Porto to discuss fun things around the web development world, grab a beer, and make some nice connections.

**RSVP now in Meetup!** Otherwise, you may be stuck on the waitlist **πŸ‘»**

## **Schedule:**

**18:30** \- Doors Open

**19:00** \- Short message from the organizers and welcome to the Frontend\.OPO community

**19:05** \- Welcome from our hosts \- Five9

**19:15** β€” **Unpacking ChatGPT: is AGI that close?**

In this talk we will explore the fundamentals of artificial neural networks and break all known ChatGPT parts into basic math constructs that might be easier to understand. After that we can argue that, although these LLMs got very general in the task of language understanding, we are already reaching a plateau in the quality of the models. This stagnation shows how far they are from a true general intelligence, capable of inventing and adapting to new scenarios.

Felipe is a backend software engineer with diverse experience in industry and academia. He’s currently working at the outbound campaigns team at Five9. From an academic perspective, his main topic was artificial intelligence, and in his talk, he will walk us through the foundation basis of the Large Language Model.

**19:45** β€” **Reimagining democracy: How blockchain technology will transform decision making.**

What will democracy look like if you can participate in decision-making processes at any time, anywhere from your mobile device in an inclusive and trustworthy way?

Jordi is a Computer engineer focused on decentralized governance.

Currently contributing to the Vocdoni project. Prev: Aragon, Caelum Labs, NTT Data.

Master degree professor at Polytechnic University of Catalonia.

**20:15** \- Networking
