 ataCon ticket is required to attend this workshop. You can purchase your t

 ion to install any required software on your laptop.\nWorkshop description
 \nPoint an AI agent at a raw warehouse and it will guess — at joins\, at
  definitions\, at what your metrics mean — and hand you a confident wron
 g answer. The fix isn't a smarter agent. It's making the definitions unavo
 idable — every query goes through a layer that defines them.\nHands-on w
 ith Malloy\, the open-source semantic modeling language: what a semantic l
 ayer is\, why it's the right form of context for analytics\, and how to bu
 ild one.\nWhat we'll cover\n\nSemantic layers: what they are\, and why the
 y're the substrate AI analytics needs\nMalloy: the language\, and what cha
 nges when meaning lives in the model rather than in queries\nThe open-sour
 ce agent tooling: Malloy Publisher's MCP tools and skills that enable mode
 ling and analysis workflows\nBuilding a semantic model to capture business
  meaning\nAnalyzing data to find trustworthy answers to any question\nBuil
 ding data apps on a governed model\n\nBring a laptop and\, if you have one
 \, some data you'd like to explore. We'll send setup instructions ahead of
  time so you can hit the ground running\, but showing up cold and using sa
 mple data is completely fine!\nIf you bring your own data\, please make su
 re it does not contain confidential\, sensitive\, or proprietary informati
 on that you are not authorized to use during the workshop.\nOpen source th
 roughout. Come with questions\; we'd rather go deep on your data problems 
 than march through slides.\nWho should attend: Data analysts\, analytics e
 ngineers\, data engineers\, BI developers\, data scientists\, and anyone i
 nterested in building more trustworthy AI-powered analytics.\nPlease note:
  This workshop is part of the 2026 YYC DataCon program. A YYC DataCon tick
 et (purchase here: https://www.showpass.com/yycdatacon2026/) is required f
 or entry\, and attendees should refer to the official conference schedule
