The Perth AI Roundtable

A monthly Socratic seminar in Perth for people exploring AI, agents, automation, and the systems changing work and everyday life.

What it is

A structured conversation, not another AI presentation.

The Roundtable is a facilitated conversation where the room collectively discusses and learns about AI and how to benefit from it.

Each month, the group works through a community-curated list of questions and topics. We pick out the threads worth focusing on, then discuss them openly with the people in the room.

The format is intentionally Socratic. The point is not to sit through a lecture or a sales pitch. The value is in better questions, shared experience, useful disagreement, and people thinking out loud together.

Anyone in Perth trying to make sense of AI is welcome: seasoned AI professionals, business owners, students, builders, operators, consultants, teachers, curious beginners, and everyone in between.

In the room

A local Perth conversation with a live agenda.

The Roundtable is designed around the people who show up. The screen helps frame the questions, but the useful part is the conversation in the room.

We keep the format open enough for beginners and detailed enough for people already building with AI agents, automation, and associated systems.

What we discuss

AI agents, associated systems, and the practical edge of what is changing.

The topics move with the room, but the focus stays on the ideas, tools, risks, and opportunities people are actually trying to understand.

01

AI agents

What agents can do now, where they break, and how they might become useful in real work.

02

Everyday use

How AI is changing personal workflows, learning, creativity, research, and day-to-day decisions.

03

Business systems

How automation, workflow design, and internal systems are changing the way organisations operate.

04

Open questions

The tradeoffs, risks, failures, surprises, and second-order effects worth taking seriously.

Topics for Discussion

The agenda is built by the community before the room meets.

Topics can be nominated on an open list before each session. The organisers curate that list with help from Ambulando, then bring the strongest questions into the room.

On the night, we do not try to cover everything. We choose the threads with the most energy, slow them down, and let the group work through them properly.

Between sessions

The conversation continues each week via Intelligence Snacks.

The Roundtable meets monthly, but Intelligence Snacks keeps the conversation moving each week. It is our newsletter and podcast for people tracking how AI is changing work, business models, tools, and the broader economy.

Hosted by Other Stuff

A shared learning room for Perth's AI-curious.

Other Stuff hosts the Roundtable as part of our broader work helping people understand AI by working with it directly. It brings together builders, business owners, operators, students, educators, consultants, and curious beginners to learn from the questions in the room.
