On March 18, 2026, the Faculty of Information and Communication Technology, Mahidol University (ICT Mahidol), organized the academic seminar “MUICT-AST x Industry TechConnect 2026” under the topic “Agentic RAG from Zero to Hero.” The seminar featured Mr. Paripol Toopiroh, Solution Architecture from Beryl 8 Plus Public Company Limited, as the guest speaker. The session provided insights into the application of Agentic RAG, along with an in-depth explanation of AI system architecture concepts—the Architecture of Autonomy—an emerging approach that enables autonomous reasoning, planning, and systematic task execution.

The event was held online via Microsoft Teams and was attended by students, faculty members, staff, and other interested participants.
