From small beginnings to great things! @emlynclay.bsky.social tells us the history of PyData London.

It’s finally time! 🥳 PyData London 100 is here! 💯

Next up we have Sam Joseph LLMs can tell jokes, but they’re pretty bad. Sam found he can breed better jokes using ideas from evolutionary computing—with pretty decent results!

Now hearing from Victor Zommers on his experiments getting LLMs to play Go. They were not good, not only losing to KataGo but also Wally, developed in 1981 with just 7 rules.

Next up Why Python is the best language for algorithmic trading from @richardhickling.bsky.social

Now hearing HangMAN vs AI - Kavit Tolia Learnings building a custom transformer to play hangman.

Congratulations @pydatalondon.bsky.social on your 💯 th meetup; I've been here since Meetup number 4 and this community is awesome! #datascience #machinelearning #python

Day 1 ✅ Tutorial Day at #PyDataAmsterdam I gave a packed intro to the Model Context Protocol (MCP) — great questions, great energy (even when the demo gods 👀 had their fun). Now onto 2 days of talks, celebrating 10 years of PyData Amsterdam 🎉 #PyData #MCP #LLMs #DataScience

Well that was unexpected; I arrived at @pydatalondon.bsky.social as an attendee and ended up as the August Meetup MC!

Thanks for attending, glad you enjoyed it.
