**The future of software development isn't just "assisted" - it’s agentic!** Join us at the Rohlik Group headquarters for an evening dedicated to the next frontier of Engineering. We are thrilled to host the team from Devin.ai - the creators of the world's first AI software engineer, and Duvo.ai - the pioneers of AI-native engineering workflows, alongside our own tech leaders. This is a unique opportunity to peek under the hood of how autonomous agents are actually being used to build, ship, and scale software in 2026. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- 🎤 **Talks Line-up** **Agentic Coding in Rohlik: Our Journey to 70% AI-Generated Code** * **Michal Kecera** \| VP of Engineering\, Platform & AI\, Rohlik Group How do you move an entire engineering organization from manual coding to a state where 70% of the codebase is AI-generated? Michal will share the raw, unfiltered journey of Rohlik’s transition. He’ll cover the architectural shifts required, the cultural hurdles, and a roadmap of what happens when the "boring" code writes itself. **The Agentic SDLC: Building Devin with Devin** * **Ciarán Deasy** \| Forward Deployed Engineer \| Devin\.ai It’s meta, it’s mind-bending, and it’s the future. Ciaran will dive deep into how the team at Devin.ai uses their own autonomous engineer to build... Devin itself. This talk goes beyond simple autocomplete, we’ll explore the **Agentic Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC)** and how global enterprises are leveraging Devin to solve complex engineering tasks that were previously thought "human-only." **Pioneering Agentic Process Automation** * **Marek Paris** \| Co\-Founder \| Duvo\.ai Marek will bring his expertise from the front lines of Duvo.ai to discuss the product development and deployment. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- **What to bring:** Curiosity & questions A readiness to challenge assumptions and learn something new \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- **What can you also look forward to:** It wouldn’t be a proper meetup without great pizza & cold Pilsner Urquell on tap. Come hungry — for knowledge, fun and carbs. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- **When the magic happens:** 17:30 Doors boot-up 18:00 First talk goes live 20:00 Talks end, networking and beer starts 22:00 Event ends \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- **Can't make it personally? Don't you worry, we'll record this Meetup, so don't hesitate to check [our YouTube channel for recording](https://www.youtube.com/@RohlikGroup).** **By attending this meetup, participants agree to being recorded and give consent to the publication of the recording on our YouTube channel.**

Moderní automatizační nástroje dnes pomáhají firmám napříč odvětvími — od technologických společností přes výrobní firmy až po právní nebo finanční služby. Umožňují propojovat systémy, které spolu dříve nekomunikovaly, automaticky předávat informace mezi procesy a nahrazovat ruční kroky plynulými workflow, která šetří čas i chybovost. Na tomto meetupu se podíváme na reálné příklady automatizací postavených na n8n — od konkrétních use cases až po funkční workflow, která můžete využít ve vlastní firmě. Nečekejte teoretické prezentace. Každá přednáška ukáže praktické scénáře z různých oblastí byznysu a vysvětlí, jak automatizace vznikla, co řeší a jaké má dopady. ### 📅 Základní informace **Datum:** 19\. května 2026 **Čas:** 17:30 – 21:00 **Místo:** Scott Weber, Náměstí Republiky 1081/7, Praha **Jazyk:** čeština **Registrace**: [https://www.eventbrite.com/e/n8n-automatizace-v-praxi-od-use-cases-k-funkcnim-workflow-tickets-1983249530734](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/n8n-automatizace-v-praxi-od-use-cases-k-funkcnim-workflow-tickets-1983249530734) ### Co vás čeká Ukázky automatizací z různých prostředí: * automatizace v projektovém řízení a týmové spolupráci * use cases z právních firem a práce s dokumenty * finanční automatizace, fakturace a napojení na ERP a účetní systémy * praktické workflow pro každodenní provoz ve firmách ### Speakři * Tomáš Bláťak (Chief Product/ Operations Officer, Leadspicker): **Jak z LinkedIn postu zákazníka udělat obchodní příležitost — automaticky pomocí n8n** * Lukáš Bekr (Product Marketing Manager, Apify): **Analýza konkurence na autopilot** * Jakub Tenk (Lead Software & AI Engineer, VIRTUAL CV LEAD): **Abra Flexi & n8n: Od automatických reportů k AI asistentům** * Daniel Zach (COO, Easy8): **Od uzavření obchodu k realizaci projektu.

**From Pilot to Production:** **Why Most AI Projects Die — and What the 10% Do Differently** Everyone is running AI pilots. Almost nobody's getting them to production. This second AI Transformers meetup, in cooperation with **[Emplifi](https://emplifi.io/)**, focuses on what actually happens between “we tried it” and “it runs our business” — the organizational blockers, data gaps, budget battles, and change management challenges that determine whether AI initiatives succeed or stall. We’ll bring together real stories from people who shipped and people who failed, to explore what separates the few AI projects that make it to production from the many that don’t. *** **Theme: From Pilot to Production** We’ll discuss questions like: * Why do so many AI pilots fail to scale? * What are the biggest blockers between experimentation and production? * How do data, governance, and organizational readiness affect success? * What do the most successful AI teams do differently? * How can companies turn AI ambition into real business value? ### **Format** Short lightning talks followed by a moderated panel discussion and networking — focused on practical lessons, real-world experience, and honest conversations about what it takes to move AI into production. **Speakers** Leaders and practitioners from different size companies sharing concrete examples. **[Ohad Hecht](https://www.linkedin.com/in/ohadhecht/) –** CEO at Emplifi **[Petra Lovčinská](https://www.linkedin.com/in/petralovcinska/?originalSubdomain=cz) -** AL Business Implementation Lead at Raiffeisenbank Czech republic **[Dario Sapienza](https://www.linkedin.com/in/dario-sapienza-a23a2b14/),** Principal Group Software Engineering Manager at Microsoft **Moderator: [Michal Ličko](https://www.linkedin.com/in/michallicko/)** – CEO, Visionvolve *** **Agenda — 20 May** * **17:30 - 18:00** – Registration * **18:00–18:10** – Welcome * **18:10–19:00** – 15-minute lightning talks * **19:00–19:30** – Moderated panel * **19:30–20:00** – Networking *** **👥 Who Is This For?** * Founders & startup leaders * Product managers & engineering leaders * Corporate innovators & digital transformation teams * Data scientists, AI engineers, and researchers * Anyone curious about how AI is reshaping business and work Whether you’re just starting or already running AI initiatives, you’ll walk away with **practical insights, real examples, and new connections**. *** **Practical Info** * **Date:** May 20 * **Time:** 17: 30–20:00 * **Location:** Emplifi Czech republic, [Pernerova 51, 186 00 Karlín](https://www.google.com/maps/place//data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x470b94a15eedb553:0xcb4c591e1fcf1e76?sa=X&ved=1t:8290&ictx=111) * **Language:** English * **Attendance is free, but spots are limited.** RSVP to secure your place and join the people building the AI-native future of Prague and Europe.

As many of you already know [1touch.io](http://1touch.io%2A%2A/) has joined Everpure to combine its AI-driven data discovery and classification capabilities with Everpure’s global scale, accelerating the delivery of next-generation data management solutions. This meetup will be special! **Speaker:** **[Ashish Gupta](https://www.linkedin.com/in/ashishgupta2025/)** - CEO and President of [1touch.io](http://1touch.io/) Ashish drives a bold vision to redefine how enterprises discover, understand, and secure sensitive data in the age of AI. A dynamic and highly regarded technology leader, he brings more than two decades of experience scaling high-growth companies across cybersecurity, enterprise software, and data infrastructure. Prior to joining [1touch.io](http://1touch.io/), Ashish served as CEO of Bugcrowd, where he accelerated the company’s growth, strengthened its market position, and expanded its platform to meet the evolving demands of modern security teams. His earlier leadership roles at global technology companies including Microsoft, Infoblox, Genesys, Actian, and Vidyo reflect a consistent track record of building innovative products, leading high-performing teams, and delivering impactful go-to-market strategies. He now joins Everpure as the General Manager of Data Management. **Talk:** Ashish will talk about why, in today’s AI world, the quality and structure of your data directly impact how well your models actually perform, and why many organizations are still limited by the way their data is set up. He’ll break down why traditional systems fall short and introduce knowledge graphs as a critical foundation for modern AI - connecting data through relationships, not just storing it in isolated tables. Instead of fragmented datasets, you get a connected view: customers linked to purchases, products tied to categories, and patterns that AI can actually understand and act on. You’ll see how this approach brings real-world context into your data, enabling smarter use cases like better recommendations, stronger fraud detection, and more meaningful insights. Ashish will also explain how adding a semantic layer transforms raw data into actionable intelligence, helping AI systems make more accurate predictions by understanding how things relate, not just what they are. If you're working on AI (or planning to) this session will show you why this isn’t just an upgrade, it’s the foundation for making AI actually work. **Time Agenda:** 17:30–18:00 – Doors open and registration with snacks and beer 18:00–19:00 – Talk 19:00–20:00 – Networking time 20:00 – Doors close

Hola tod@s! Tenemos otra reunion este viernes en Cafedu! Sois muy bienvenidos!

**🔥 TechTalk #5** Každá generace má svůj „konec světa“. Někdy to byla jaderná válka. Někdy internet. **Dnes je to AI.** Jedni říkají, že zachrání svět. Druzí, že vezme práci a zničí IT. Realita bývá vždycky někde mezi. Proto tentokrát nechceme keynote ani marketing. Chceme otevřenou technickou debatu o tom, co AI skutečně dělá s vývojem, architekturou a odpovědností za software. **🔥PANELOVÍ HOSTÉ NA ROŠTU:** **🗣️ #1 - [Jan Sládek](https://www.linkedin.com/in/honzasladek/) (CEO [contember](https://www.contember.com/))** **🗣️ #2 - [Michael Žabka](https://www.linkedin.com/in/michael-zabka) (CTO [signageOS](https://www.signageos.io/))** 🗣️ **#3 - [Miloš Čermák](https://x.com/cermak) (novinář v [jednoprocento](https://www.jednoprocento.cz/))** **TÉMATA Z APOKALYPTICKÉ KUCHYNĚ:** 🔥 Budeme **rozumět kódu**, který AI generuje? 🔥 Jak budeme dělat code review něčemu, čemu **nikdo nerozumí**? 🔥 Je **halucinace** stále téma nebo pomalu **zaniká**? 🔥 Security, agent **prompt injection**, úniky kódu a porušování **vlastnického práva**. 🔥 Dříve jsme byli **placení za psaní** kódu; teď jsme **placení za čtení** a kontrolu. 🔥 **Junioři** se nemohou **nic naučit**. 🔥 Anthropic si může napsat **všechen software světa** sám! 🔥 Explozivní růst **technického dluhu** maskovaný produktivitou. 🔥 Tiché **selhávání AI projektů**, o kterých se **veřejně nemluví**. **Podíváme se na to, co dnes AI skutečně dělá s vývojem** – od generování kódu, testů a návrhů architektury přes explozivní růst objemu kódu, kterému už nikdo pořádně nerozumí, až po nový typ technického dluhu maskovaný produktivitou. **Nebudeme řešit, jestli nám AI vezme práci. Budeme řešit, jak se změní odpovědnost za software a jak udržet kvalitu systémů v době, kdy stále větší část kódu vzniká strojově.** Panel bude proložen krátkou technickou přednáškou z praxe: * ⚡ **(překvapení)** 🪢 Celým večerem vás bude opět provázet **[Marek Velas](https://www.linkedin.com/in/marek-velas)** (**[edupunk.cz](https://www.edupunk.cz/)**), který se postará o to, aby diskuze nepřešla v generování náhodných výkřiků a měla spád. \#\#\#\# KDY A KDE: * 📅 **Datum:** Ve středu 20. 5. 2026 * ⏰ **Čas:** 18:30 - 22:00 * 📍 **Místo:** signageOS s.r.o., Evropská 11/2758, Praha 6-Dejvice Těšíme se na setkání! Přijďte, dokud nás ještě nenahradili roboti 🤖💣

If there are already 8 attendees registered, please do not sign up. We are looking forward to meeting you and having coffee together. Please join if you are 35+ and comfortable communicating in English.

**Talks:** **BE-A: AI hotelová recepční: Python, fastapi, langchain, TTS/STT, K8s** *by Lukáš Korous* Na praktickém příkladu ukážeme, jak navrhnout autonomní AI systém, který je spolehlivý a zná své limity. Nemusí umět všechno, ale to, co dělá, musí fungovat bez chyb. Podíváme se, jak se to promítá do architektury, testování i provozu. **Schedule** **18:30** – Doors open **19:00** – Talk “BE-A: AI hotelová recepční” 19:45 – Lightning talks: add yours to [https://bit.ly/prpylight](https://bit.ly/prpylight) after 20:00 – Networking **Good to know** * You don’t have to register for this meetup – the actual attendance is much bigger (40–70 Pythonistas) than indicated in the “Going” list here. * **Cash only payments – club doesn’t accept cards.** * Talks at Pyvo are mostly in Czech but it there’s somebody who doesn’t understand Czech talks are switched to English if the speaker is able to do so. * Besides both soft drinks and beer it's possible to eat at the club. Choice is variable and consists of 4 to 7 options ranging from toast, sausages and soup to fried cheese in a bun, goulash or schnitzel. * Club closes at midnight.

We’re shipping faster than ever… and also explaining way more why things didn’t turn out quite right 😄 This Product Tank brings two sides of the same story: 👉 How to survive (and function) as a PM in AI chaos 👉 How to write specs that AI can actually build from Talks: 🎤 Jindra Regál () You Are the Ultimate Product: Creating Value in Non-Tech Fields In the AI era, everything gets built multiple times a day. So what problems are still worth solving? After working with companies like Avast, Productboard, Better Stack, Ataccama, and BottleCap AI, I found the most meaningful work came from solving small, practical problems for real people and businesses. A talk about applying product thinking outside IT companies, expanding your perspective beyond software, and learning to treat yourself, your skills, curiosity, and adaptability, as the ultimate product to manage. ⸻ 🎤 Jakub Elias (Similarweb) PMing in the AI era PMs are having an identity crisis. Designers prototype with AI. Engineers spec with AI. You hear about CEOs shipping features from the back of an Uber. So what's left for you? Turns out, still quite a lot. This talk is about what the job actually becomes when building gets cheap and deciding gets hard. How the trio holds together when everyone's on everyone else's turf. How to keep a roadmap alive when the ground shifts every few weeks. And lastly, what's now expected of a PM - being a real builder. ⸻ 🎤 Dominik Ilichman (Productboard) AI coding agents have compressed software delivery like never before — features that used to take weeks now ship in days. But here's the catch: agents don't improvise. They don't fill gaps, ask clarifying questions, or read between the lines. Ambiguity doesn't get resolved — it gets built wrong. The bottleneck has moved from engineering capacity to clarity, and the product specification is now the most critical artifact a PM produces. In this talk, Dominik explores how the PM's role is fundamentally shifting as a result. We'll look at what great AI-ready specs look like in practice: grounding them in your codebase and real customer feedback, using prototypes as a diagnostic tool, and why the spec — not the code — is becoming your team's true intellectual property. He'll also show how tools like Productboard Spark are flipping the traditional workflow — instead of the PM writing and AI helping, AI drafts and the PM steers — making it possible to go from opportunity to delivery-ready specification in a fraction of the time. If you're a PM figuring out how to stay high-leverage in the age of AI, this talk is for you.

**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you. The building address is 4450 Bridge Park The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400 You will need to scan your ID at the door to get a visitor badge. **Abstract** TBD **YouTube Link** TBD

Main Library, Meeting Room 2B Join us for a welcoming evening of reflection, gentle music, and meaningful conversation. We’ll begin with a short grounding moment, followed by a brief reading from spiritual or philosophical traditions, and an open reflection circle where participants can share (or simply listen). Libera Animae is an interfaith community focused on inner growth, creativity, and authentic connection. All backgrounds are welcome.

Customer identity resolution becomes increasingly complex as organizations scale across multiple systems, regions, and data formats. Traditional rule-based approaches often fail to keep up with data variability, require constant manual tuning, and struggle with real-time processing needs. This session presents a practical approach to building a scalable identity resolution pipeline using AWS services and modern AI techniques. The architecture combines data ingestion through Amazon S3 and AWS Glue, transformation pipelines using Spark on EMR, and machine learning models deployed via SageMaker for entity matching and standardization. Graph-based relationship modeling is implemented using Amazon Neptune to improve resolution accuracy by incorporating household and shared attribute context. We will walk through how machine learning models can be used for name and address normalization, how intelligent blocking strategies improve matching efficiency, and how feedback loops can be introduced to continuously improve accuracy. The session also highlights how serverless components such as AWS Lambda can be used for orchestration and real-time processing. **SPEAKER BIO** Mosaic Syed is a Senior Data Engineering and Cloud Solutions Architect with over 20 years of experience designing and delivering scalable, secure, and high-performance data solutions across global enterprise environments. https://www.linkedin.com/in/mosaic-basha-syed-92300856 **CALL FOR SPEAKERS** Learn more: [https://www.awscolumbus.com/get-involved/](https://www.awscolumbus.com/get-involved/) **THANK YOU** *VEEAM* for hosting our meetup!

This is a free, in-person meeting on the subject of betrayals, losses and how to get over them so you can build lasting relationships. Burdened by a stressful relationship? Unhealthy relationships can trigger feelings of anger, despair or self-doubt. They can create dwindling spirals of fights and seeking to make-up, or trying to “pin the blame” on someone or something. If you don’t find the RIGHT reasons, or select the correct sources of the problem, the problem can just get worse and worse. Whether in love or personal ties, with friends or at work, our life really IS affected by the quality of our relationships. Good ones can promote pleasure and survival while less optimum ones can lead to annoyance, anger, self-doubt, stress, or even affect our health and ability to survive well. Whether you are suffering from a divorce, or a painful break-up, don’t know who to trust (or who to CHOOSE) as a partner, friend, boss or employee - the anxiety of relationship troubles can really make a mess of things. Maybe you’ve suffered a betrayal, or are dealing with hostility or criticalness or invalidation. Dwindling relationships can involve destructive behavior, where we hurt those we love, or start succumbing to self-destructive thoughts, attitudes or behaviors that spiral out of control and affect much more than our immediate relationship. Past losses in love or life can affect how we act or react to new people and situations and hold us back from even starting to create new, possibly great relationships! How can one get back onto a saner course of action? Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life: human relationships! Break free from self imposed limitations Here we will discuss: • How to “erase” the trauma of past hurts and betrayals so that one isn’t always repeating past mistakes. • Why and how do the negative emotions of others affect you? • Why is my partner withdrawing and what can I do about it? • Why do we sometimes feel compelled to hurt the ones we love? • Fights & arguments - what's really behind them? • What underlies “corrosive criticism” or the need to invalidate self or others? • How one can stably change one’s outlook on life so they can affect positive change? • Where do compulsive destructive behaviors come from and what can be done about them? • How to form closer bonds & keep growing the relationships with the people you care about? • How to enhance one’s own ability to survive and create positive healthy relationships whether in love, family & friendships or in work, business or one’s career? Relationships can be hard and life itself IS challenging. Why not arm yourself with the knowledge and breakthroughs that have been made about the mind, mental reactions & interpersonal relationships, so that one has better awareness and control over themselves and life in general. Learn where painful experiences are “stored” and how they can unknowingly affect us. You will also find out how one can “erase” those past painful experiences so that one is free to move forward without being tripped up by the past.

**Welcome to Drunken Philosophy** a casual, curious social discussion **Optional topic for this meetup: What's up with all the AI hate?** A recent survey found that 74% of Americans have a negative view of AI, and I want to know why. Come out and debate whether AI is good or bad. My hot take: a labor-saving tool that could potentially help cure cancer gets called dangerous because it might raise unemployment or cause a speculative investment bubble, that tells you a lot more about capitalism and the economic system we live under than it does about the tool itself. As a computer programmer, I think AI is a wonderful tool that has increased my productivity by at least an order of magnitude. I'd go so far as to say Claude Code is the best tool I have ever used. Debate me and name a better one. Is AI potentially dangerous? Yes, but so are a lot of tools. Chainsaws. Steam engines (early ones would occasionally explode and kill everyone in the room). Do you think cavemen sat around debating whether fire could be used as a weapon or for self-harm, and decided not to discover it? I have two friends who hate AI for opposite reasons: one thinks it's a fad and not useful, and the other thinks it's going to take over everything and cause human extinction. Come out tonight, have a friendly debate, and make some friends. No lectures. Friendly crowd. Drop in for one drink and stay if it's fun.
