Many people interact with large language models (LLMs) through simple, linear chat interfaces. However, AI unlocks its true potential when these models are placed inside an agentic loop - a cycle of reasoning, acting, and observing. In this hands-on workshop, you will demystify AI agents by building a basic agentic loop from scratch using Python and the Gemini API. Participants will learn how to move beyond static prompts to create systems that can use tools, evaluate their own outputs, and iterate toward a goal. This workshop is designed to turn the magic of AI agents into a clear, hackable process.

Grokking the Agentic Loop: From Chatbots to Autonomous Agents workshop

Abstract

Many people interact with large language models (LLMs) through simple, linear chat interfaces. However, AI unlocks its true potential when these models are placed inside an agentic loop - a cycle of reasoning, acting, and observing. In this hands-on workshop, you will demystify AI agents by building a basic agentic loop from scratch using Python and the Gemini API. Participants will learn how to move beyond static prompts to create systems that can use tools, evaluate their own outputs, and iterate toward a goal. This workshop is designed to turn the magic of AI agents into a clear, hackable process.
