You built, you broke, and now you will learn! Agentic coders are a major breakthrough for developers, making work easier (then at times more challenging!) Think about how these tools evolved from providing simple code blocks to actively rewriting the code inside IDE. As we, developers, engineers and designers, who are still learning how to use them, we need to understand the reasoning behind these tools and follow some best practices. **Kiro Bootcamp - Learn from the Experts** In light of all these, we kept our promise and are happy to organize a half-day long Kiro Bootcamp for you. Thanks to **Rackspace Technology** we will be gathering in WeWork, inviting experts from AWS to introduce you Kiro, explain the critical parts, help with getting the most out of it. This is a hands-on workshop with a practical deep dive into starting-up, running and optimizing Kiro. You work through independent tasks that you can pick and choose from, learning how to build, deploy, and operate your ideas on Kiro IDE. By the end of the workshop, we aim that you understand how Kiro works, what things you have to take into account at spec-driven development, and how you can integrate your Kiro IDE to external and internal tools. This workshop is aimed at developers, designers, cloud specialists and product developers. While it is not necessary to have extensive knowledge on AI development, it is ideal that you install Kiro in your device and try to build some minor projects in advance. **When?** 5th of May\, Tuesday\,\| 12:00 \- 17:00 **Where?** WeWork - Stresemannstraße 123, 10963 Berlin **How?** Fill out this form to apply.

We are excited to feature **Marzieh Fadaee**, who is currently Head of Cohere Labs at **cohere** and will discuss "**Scaling LLMs Across Languages**", lasting approximately 45 minutes. After the talk, seize the opportunity to connect with fellow AI enthusiasts to share ideas and questions while enjoying free drinks and pizza. **Door close by 7.15pm, so please come early! Also, "attend"ing (RSVP) here on Meetup is strictly necessary to be guaranteed entry.** Please note that Meetup has recently been quite keen on promoting its Plus program. However, you are not obligated to purchase it, as both our events and the platform remain free. **Who is this event for?** This event is open to everyone interested in state-of-the-art AI research. We especially design it for students, PhD candidates, academic researchers, and industry professionals with a research focus in machine learning. **Abstract**: Scaling has driven progress in language models, but improvements in peak performance often fail to translate across languages. In this talk, I show how multilingual models expose the limits of scale and highlight the importance of balanced performance. I argue for a shift from optimizing peaks to lifting the floor, through better data, design, and evaluation illustrated through Tiny Aya. **Bio**: Marzieh Fadaee is the Head of Cohere Labs, where she leads research on fundamental problems in artificial intelligence. Her work spans multilingual language models, data-efficient learning, model evaluation, and trustworthy AI, with a focus on building systems that are robust, inclusive, and globally impactful. She co-leads the Aya initiative that brought together over 3,000 collaborators worldwide to create the world's largest multilingual instruction dataset and the development of a series of state-of-the-art multilingual language and vision models. Before joining Cohere Labs, Marzieh was the Research Lead at Zeta Alpha Vector, where she pioneered innovative approaches to knowledge discovery and organization. She holds a PhD from the University of Amsterdam where she conducted foundational research on neural machine translation. Her research has been published in top venues such as NeurIPS, ACL, EMNLP, and ICLR, and she frequently serves as a mentor and advisor in the global AI research community. We are [BLISS](https://bliss.berlin/) e.V., the **AI** **organization** in Berlin that **connects like-minded individuals** who share great interest and passion for the field of machine learning. This summer 2026, we will, again, host an exciting speaker series on site in Berlin, featuring excellent researchers from cohere, ETH Zürich, University of Oxford, HuggingFace, and Stanford University.

Was machen wir im Urlaub? Join us for our first German Sprachcafe as we cover the topic of Urlaub (holiday!).
