But when accuracy really matters — legal documents, brand messaging, or customer communication — most professionals still hesitate to fully trust the output. ​This Trustworthy AI Circle round looks at a practical question: How can we make AI translation reliable enough for real business use – without introducing lengthy and expensive human-in-the-loop setups traditional agencies use? ​Together with experts from **Supertext** we will look at a practical near-instant verification flow. We will approach the solution from two perspectives: business value from a marketing leadership viewpoint and practical implementation from an operational one. The discussion will explore where these perspectives align - and where they collide - in building trustworthy solutions that continuously improve the underlying AI model.

**Join us for the premier of a collective reading & text discussion session!** Immanuel Kant (1724–1804) is one of the central figures of Western philosophy, known above all for his work on reason, autonomy, and moral judgment. His 1784 essay *Beantwortung der Frage: Was ist Aufklärung?* is short — a few pages — but precise in a way that rewards slow, careful reading. For this session, we do exactly that: read the text together, paragraph by paragraph, in the tradition of a philosophy seminar. What does Kant mean by *Unmündigkeit* — the self-incurred immaturity he sees all around him? Where does he draw the line between the public and private use of reason, and does that distinction hold? These are not rhetorical questions; they are ones the text itself invites us to sit with. It can serve as perfect preparation for the May event. **Text access:** Please bring a copy of the text in your preferred format and language with you. Recommended versions are \- German original: [Kant, Immanuel, Beantwortung der Frage: Was ist Aufklärung](http://www.zeno.org/Philosophie/M/Kant,+Immanuel/Beantwortung+der+Frage:+Was+ist+Aufkl%C3%A4rung) \- English Translation: [An Answer to the Question: What is Enlightenment? by Immanuel Kant 1784](https://www.marxists.org/reference/subject/ethics/kant/enlightenment.htm) or [this version](https://sites.evergreen.edu/politicalshakespeares/wp-content/uploads/sites/226/2015/12/Kant-A-response-to-the-question-What-is-Enlightenment.pdf) **Meeting point:** We meet at the main entrance of the **main building of the University of Zurich** and will find a place either in the wonderful Lichthof or on the terrace (depending on the weather). If you can't make it on time but still want to join, reach out to the host. **For our reading events in general:** Whether this format is new to you or a long-missed return to university seminars, you're warmly welcome. Bring a copy of the text in any language or edition you prefer — the reading itself is our guide. Important: When you register for the event, please commit to it and **don't be a NO SHOW**. Presumably, when the old Stoics decided to go to an event, they kept to it ;) We look forward to seeing you

Welcome to the first meeting of the 20th Century World Literature Book Club Zurich! For our first book, we’ll be reading *Chronicle of a Death Foretold*, a short, gripping, and beautifully written novel by Colombian author and Nobel Prize winner Gabriel García Márquez. First published in 1981, it tells the story of a killing that everyone knows is coming, yet somehow no one stops. We’ll meet in English for a friendly, open discussion. No academic background is needed — just read the book, bring your thoughts, and join the conversation. This first book has been chosen by the organizer to get the club started. After our book club is actively underway, future reads will be selected through member nominations and voting. Looking forward to meeting fellow readers and kicking things off together in April!

AI is changing how art is made. But when does it stop being your work and start being the machine’s? This month we're going to be doing a panel with with digital image, music, and written word artists, talking about at what point, while using AI in the creation process, does the work become not the artist creation? We encourage audience participation during this event that will be moderated by Chris Slee. Whether you’re deep in the field or just getting curious, come connect with others building and exploring AI in Columbus.
