What to expect
The Human Side of AI is the first gathering of The AI Collective's Baltimore chapter, scheduled for November 11, 2026. It is an informal networking event of about two hours with no panels, pitches, or presentations. The organizers describe it as the first of a recurring series, and they encourage attendees to arrive early to look around the space.
Who should attend
The event is open to anyone building with AI, anyone curious about it, and people who have never used it, so no technical background is needed. The organizers name founders, engineers, researchers, students, designers, and people working in healthcare, logistics, and the arts as part of the expected crowd. For a founder new to the Baltimore and DMV area, it is a low-commitment way to meet people working on or around AI.
Hosts
The event is presented by The AI Collective, with Khalif Cooper and Snehalraj Chugh listed as hosts.
Venue and access
The gathering takes place at Spark Coworking in Baltimore, MD. The exact address is shared only with registered, approved guests.
How to register
The event is free. Request a spot on the Luma event page using the Request to Join button. Registration is subject to host approval, and the organizers note that the room only holds so many people, so registrations are reviewed as they come in. Request early if you want to attend.
