Summary

Draft: holding until an August 4 speaker is booked and added to the homepage.

  • Archive the July 2026 lightning talks meetup as a past meetup post, with the speaker list from the sign-up sheet.
  • Add Shayan Ali to the authors file.
  • Add Shayan's meetup, "How to Read the AI Brain", to the homepage for October 6, 2026.
    Shayan picked September and October from the offered dates; Mason booked him for October.

The branch also merges the May/June/July updates from main; the April archive and the Satyam/Ishita author entries stay as they landed there.

Before Merging

  • Add the August 4 meetup (speaker TBD) to the homepage above the October section.
  • docs/assets/images/shayanali.jpg does not exist yet. Headshot requested over email on July 22 (contact: shayanatwork1@gmail.com). Strict builds fail until it lands.
  • Shayan submitted two lightning talk titles; the post uses the later one, "Diagnosing Gary: Why Your Multimodal AI is Lying to You". Fix the bullet in docs/past_meetups/posts/2026-07-07.md if he gave the other.

Archive the April 2026 meetup (Simon Merrick, t-strings) as a past meetup post.
Add Shayan Ali to the authors file.
Update the homepage for the August 4, 2026 meetup, "How to Read the AI Brain".
Keep main's April post and author entries, keep the August meetup on the homepage.

Shayan picked September and October from the offered dates, not August.
Book him for October 6 per Mason.
The August 4 slot still needs a speaker before this can merge.
