🌟 Build with AI 2026:: GDG Cloud Noida! 🚀 I recently attended the Build with AI event organized by GDG Cloud Noida at Inderprastha Engineering College. It was an incredible day dedicated to the evolving landscape of Generative AI, secure frameworks, and agentic experiences. As an introvert, I spent my time absorbing the wealth of knowledge rather than capturing the perfect 'mentor selfie'—so while my gallery might be empty, my notes are full! 📌 The 'Tech Collie' vs. Efficient Programmer: One of the most impactful segments was the talk where Pulkita Marwah interviewed Ankit Sinha. Ankit Sir's guidance on becoming a truly efficient programmer—rather than just a 'tech collie'—was eye-opening. The line that struck me most: "It is not important what degree you have done. Do what you want to do and follow your skills, not the degree." 📌 Chhavi Garg (The Energy): A huge shoutout to our host! Managing a tech crowd is no small feat, but her infectious energy kept us all awake and engaged. She ensured the momentum never dropped and made sure we didn't lose focus throughout the long sessions! 📌 Imran Roshan: Delivered a session that was the perfect blend of humor and captivating insights. He provided a very timely deep dive into how to ensure Cybersecurity in AI, proving that technical delivery can be both engaging and serious. 📌 Abhishek Sharma: Shared invaluable technical insights that provided deep clarity on the current AI ecosystem and Secure AI Frameworks. 📌 Pranav Kumar: Shared great insights on skills.md. It was entirely new to me and seems like a game-changer for documenting a developer's technical journey and skills. 📌 Ashutosh Kushwaha: Provided an excellent deep dive into Lakehouse architecture and its intersection with modern GenAI systems. 📌 Women in Tech Panel: An incredibly inspiring talk by Rajni Prakash, Sweta Agarwal, and Sargam Tiwari. Hearing their diverse perspectives and professional journeys was truly empowering. Beyond the technical tracks, the lunch and networking sessions were great for connecting with the community. I’m walking away with a much clearer understanding of Google’s Secure AI Framework (SAIF) and Agentverse. Thank you to the entire GDG Cloud Noida team for putting together such a high-quality event! 💫 #BuildWithAI #GDGCloudNoida #GoogleDevelopers #GenAI #WomenInTech #CyberSecurity #ProgrammingMindset #SkillsOverDegrees #TechCommunity #ContinuousLearning
