DESCRIPTION: Join us for the September 2026 Dundee Data Meetup \n\n You're 
 invited to the September 2026 edition of the Dundee Data Meetup! \n\n Whet
 her you're a data practitioner\, a student\, or simply interested in how d
 ata shapes our world\, come along and be part of our growing community! \n
 \n Speakers and Topics \n\n AI Agents: From Perception to Autonomous Actio
 n \n\n Recent advances in foundation models have given rise to AI agents c
 apable of reasoning\, planning\, and acting autonomously across complex ta
 sks. This talk explores the shift from static\, single-purpose deep learni
 ng models towards agentic systems that combine perception\, multi-modal un
 derstanding\, and decision-making to operate independently in real-world e
 nvironments. Drawing on examples from natural language processing and beyo
 nd\, we examine the opportunities of building AI agents that are capable o
 f carrying out complex multi-step tasks. \n\n Speaker Bios \n\n Steven Wal
 lace\, PhD Researcher at the University of Aberdeen \n\n Steven Wallace is
  a PhD researcher at the University of Aberdeen working on deep learning f
 oundation models for semantic segmentation in climate change analysis. Wit
 h a background spanning energy consultancy\, electronic engineering\, and 
 AI\, he has built systems ranging from explainable heart disease classifie
 rs to real-time surveillance object detection\, and has taught and guest-l
 ectured on deep learning and image segmentation at Aberdeen. Beyond comput
 er vision\, his research interests extend to multi-modal learning and AI a
 gents. \n
