Workshop logistics: choose your own adventure, raise your hand, and challenge the presenters
Workshop attendees were told they could either help with the wedding example or pick their own plan from the repo, with the added risk that the presenters may not be able to help if they get stuck. If something isn't working or is confusing, raise your hand and the presenters will float around the room; something will break during the workshop, and attendees should call the presenters over to fix it with them. Attendees are also invited to challenge the presenters if they think trust is overrated and throwing 100 agents at a problem will eventually solve it, and to raise challenges they've faced when working with agents so the group can build solutions together.
