Welcome Carmine Paolino (@paolino.me) as one of our speakers. He's an AI engineer, founder, and open source contributor. He created RubyLLM, bringing modern AI tooling to Ruby, and co-founded Freshflow and Chat with Work. Catch him on stage: https://luma.com/sfrubyconf2026
Up next we have @paolino.me on stage! His hot take is that #Ruby (with RubyLLM) is the best and most elegant way to build AI apps. I’m inclined to believe that he’s right about that! 😁
Sadly, Bernard Banta won't make it to Balkan this year, but we're happy to have Carmine Paolino cover for him! Carmine is the co-founder of www.freshflow.ai. He's also the author of your favorite RubyLLM library. His take is that "Ruby Is the Best Language for Building Al Web Apps", and we agree!

Carmine Paolino wrote his first scripts at age 5. Today he builds AI tools to solve real problems. Off-screen, he makes house music as Crimson Lake in Berlin. He's our Keynote Speaker at Rubycon 2026. Rimini, May 8th. #Ruby #Rubycon2026
Ruby est le meilleur langage pour construire des apps IA en 2026. L'argument : on ne fait que des appels HTTP aux LLM, le reste c'est du développement web classique. Et Rails excelle là-dessus ! https://paolino.me/ruby-is-the-best-language-for-ai-apps/

It's an honour for us to introduce our first confirmed speaker: Carmine Paolino! Carmine Paolino’s journey with technology started early—at age 5, he wrote his first scripts to automate launching his favorite games. Read full article here: rubycon.it/2025/10/28/c...
Our closing keynote for day one was @paolino.me. Carmine explained LLMs can’t be trained anymore, they’re just making API calls. In this talk, he shared how to use RubyLLM, the principles behind this creation, and how to integrate it with Rails.

Evil Martians@evilmartians.com · 11mo agoTo celebrate the 30th anniversary of Ruby and the release of Ruby 4.0, the first 32 talks from the SF Ruby Conference main stage are now live on YouTube! This includes keynotes from @marcoroth.dev, @palkan.bsky.social, and @paolino.me. We’re working on uploading the rest next week.
🎙️ @paolino.me #sfruby — “RubyLLM: One API, One Person, One Machine” Carmine brought a vision for Ruby’s future in AI, one that feels deeply aligned with Ruby’s DNA. “RubyLLM is gifted to the community — built to make AI feel native, not bolted on"
RubyLLM is such an incredibly clean interface for building apps that use AI! I appreciate @paolino.me's passion for simple interfaces and the philosophy behind it.
Can’t wait to be at SF Ruby! Also catch my first keynote the second day!
Anton Tkachov@antontkachov.bsky.social · last yr.SF Ruby Conference -- first since 2014: - ~600 Rubyists. - Talks on Ruby + AI, Rails at scale, future, etc. - Keynotes by @paolino.me, @marcoroth.dev, @obiefernandez.bsky.social, and Vladimir Dementyev. - Workshops on Inertia Rails, building AI Agents, etc. All the details and tickets: sfruby.com.
And now that the client's done, it was pretty easy to turn a remote OpenAPI spec into RubyLLM tools, so that I can chat with the API.
Ismael Celis@ismaelcelis.com · last yr.I know there's OpenAPI client generators, but I just wanted a tiny Ruby client that builds itself from OpenAPI specs, on the fly, so I wrote one.

Of course, RubyLLM works great on JRuby! And then you also have access to a world of AI and ML tooling on the JVM like Langchain4J and official TensorFlow bindings. I'm glad to see communities like Ruby's working to compete with Python in the AI space.

I’m an AI skeptic, but Carmine’s talk on RubyLLM at #EuRuKo is super exciting. And the Ruby code snippets are 💯.
Second day of @euruko #EuRuKo2025 starting with @paolino talk about "RubyLLM: Making AI Development Beautiful Again"
