Start: 2025-02-27T18:00:00+01:00

Location: Netlight Consulting GmbH (Kaisergalerie)

We’re back with another exciting **MeetupAI Hamburg** session, this time diving deep into **LLMs**! Our focus will be on the rapidly evolving landscape of **Large Language Models**, with a special highlight on **DeepSeek R1**—one of the most talked-about open-source LLMs right now.

Our featured speaker, **Jannik Malte Meissner**, Co-Founder & CEO of Neuralfinity, will provide an **in-depth look at DeepSeek R1’s architecture, training methodologies, and its implications for the future of AI**. Jannik has extensively analyzed this model and shared his insights in a recent blog post: [A Deep Dive on DeepSeek R1](https://www.neuralfinity.com/blog/a-deep-dive-on-deepseek-r1).

We’re also hosting another **LLM-related talk**, this time focused on **Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG)**. **Jingwen Yang** will walk us through the fundamentals of **RAG**, demonstrating a practical use case and the infrastructure required to deploy a basic RAG system on **AWS**. We’ll explore how **Agentic RAG** builds upon this foundation—highlighting when and why you might need autonomous agents, what capabilities they bring, and how they enhance traditional RAG with **dynamic decision-making and tool use**.

As always, there will be plenty of opportunities to network and connect with the community. Thanks to **[Netlight](https://www.netlight.com/)**, our co-hosts, snacks and drinks will be provided!
