Then you&amp;rsquo;ll give it the ability to act on the world through Tool Calling, Function Execution, and the Model Context Protocol (MCP). With the core system working, you&amp;rsquo;ll learn the advanced optimization techniques that separate prototypes from production — speculative decoding, semantic caching, and intelligent model routing.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>GopherCon UK: Ultimate Practical AI</title><link>https://www.ardanlabs.com/events/ultimate-practical-ai/</link><pubDate>Tue, 10 Mar 2026 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://www.ardanlabs.com/events/ultimate-practical-ai/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;This is a hands-on, full-day workshop where you&amp;rsquo;ll build a complete AI-powered application in Go — from first prompt to production-ready system.&lt;/p&gt;&#10;&lt;p&gt;You&amp;rsquo;ll start by connecting your Go application to a language model and grounding its responses in real data using Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG).
