Nice examples of the same API in 5 different languages. Really shows how similar these different languages are.

Only recommendation to improve would be to have some examples of use cases ready for why you might pick each language (like ive heard Python has a great image processing library). Several of those examples could really inspire some people to try out new languages. Definitely enjoyed your talk!

I think I would like to see this as a tutorial. An hour seems like just enough to scratch the surface of how each language is doing the same work, and a longer talk slot would give time for more in-depth conversation and examples. It was a great talk as is though.
