Building AI Products When Nobody Knows the Answer

**What does** **building AI products actually look like before anyone knows what’s going to work?** Join us on September 16 to reveal the answer. ✅ **To attend the event**, please **register** **on Luma**: https://luma.com/rdzvmhud Please note that **only guests with a confirmed Luma registration will be admitted**. Due to limited capacity, we won’t be able to accommodate attendees who haven't registered. Most product stories are told backward. Once a feature succeeds, it’s easy to believe the path was obvious all along. ​In reality, product teams work with competing hypotheses, incomplete evidence, and no clear playbook. The challenge isn’t finding the "right" answer—it’s making good decisions before anyone knows what the right answer is. ​In this talk, we’ll share real stories from building AI features at Superhuman: how we designed experiments, navigated disagreements, interpreted ambiguous data, and made decisions despite uncertainty. ​This isn’t a framework or a polished success story. It’s an honest look at what product development actually feels like while it’s happening, and what we’ve learned about making progress before the story makes sense in hindsight. 🚀 **Who is this event for?** ​This meetup is designed for **experienced product managers, designers, engineers, and engineering leaders** interested in how modern AI products are built. Especially relevant for professionals navigating uncertainty, competing opinions, and incomplete information while making product decisions. ​✅ Due to limited event capacity, **confirmations will be prioritized for experienced professionals with relevant backgrounds in this topic.** 🔈 **About the Speakers** * **​[Luisa Gonçalves](https://www.linkedin.com/in/luisa-gon%C3%A7alves-02b90480/?utm_source=luma)** is a senior product manager working on Superhuman’s next generation of in-line experiences and agents. Her focus is bringing AI to everyone’s cursor. With a background spanning both B2B and B2C products, she works as a bridge across disciplines including PMM, engineering, and enablement and isn’t afraid to wear whatever hat the problem needs. * ​**[Sasha Marynych](https://www.linkedin.com/in/sasha-marynych/?utm_source=luma)** is an engineering manager at Superhuman, where he leads teams building AI-powered product experiences used by millions of people. Over the past decade, he’s helped ship consumer products across Grammarly and now Superhuman, working at the intersection of engineering, product strategy, and applied AI. ⏱️ ​**Agenda:** * ​18:00–18:30: Check-in and networking * ​18:30–19:30: Talks * ​19:30–20:30: Mingle with our team

Beyond Technology: AI & Data for the Common Good

What if the most valuable use of AI isn’t automation, but helping people make **better decisions in situations of uncertainty**? Join **Women in Big Data Berlin** and the **Bertelsmann Stiftung** for an evening exploring how AI and data can support evidence-based decision-making and create meaningful social impact. As AI moves from experimentation into everyday work, we want to look beyond what the technology can do and ask **how we can use it responsibly, who benefits, and what it takes to build trustworthy systems that serve the common good.** We’ll hear practical examples from experts working across AI, data, policy and social impact, including: * **AI-powered knowledge management** that makes information findable, contextualised and traceable * **Research agents for policy** that turn complex questions into evidence synthesis, research gaps and decision-ready options * **Responsible AI by design**, including human oversight, data protection, transparency and quality checks * **Impact beyond automation**, focusing on better decisions, learning and long-term organisational capacity **Agenda** **17:30–18:15 \| Registration & Snacks** **18:15–18:30 \| Welcome & Opening Remarks** [Carsten Große Starmann](https://www.linkedin.com/in/carsten-gro%C3%9Fe-starmann-16547144/), Vice President, Bertelsmann Stiftung [Anita Fechner](https://www.linkedin.com/in/anfech/), Women in Big Data Berlin **18:30–18:50 \| Keynote: AI for Good** [Dr. Katarzyna Stoltmann](https://www.linkedin.com/in/katarzyna-kasia-stoltmann-6b7656116/), Women in Big Data Berlin **18:50–19:20 \| AI & Data for the Common Good** [Dr. Helena Bakic](https://www.linkedin.com/in/bakich/), Data Science Lab [Dr. Jens Preußner](https://www.linkedin.com/in/jpreussner/), Digitalization and the Common Good **19:20–20:00 \| Panel Discussion** Moderated by [Aliya Boranbayeva](https://www.linkedin.com/in/aliyaboranbayeva/) **20:00–21:00 \| Networking Reception** Whether you work in **AI, data, policy, research, philanthropy, civil society or communications**, join us to explore how technology can move beyond automation and contribute to better decisions and greater social impact. **Registration is required for this event.** *Photos and videos will be taken during this event to capture the atmosphere and document our event.

Cybersecurity × AI: Berlin's Builders, Breakers & Backers #3

AI has changed both sides of the security equation at once. Attackers are automating reconnaissance, phishing, and exploit development at a scale that didn't exist two years ago. Defenders are shipping agents that triage alerts, patch code, and hunt threats faster than any SOC team could. And an entirely new attack surface — the models themselves — is being built into products before anyone has agreed on how to secure it. Berlin has quietly become one of Europe's densest clusters of people working on exactly this problem: security founders, ML engineers, red teamers, CISOs, researchers, and the investors funding them. This meetup is an attempt to get them in one room. **⚠️ Attendance is limited and by application only** We're capping this event at **10 people**. The reason is deliberate: we'd rather have a room where everyone present is actually working in this space than a large room where most people are browsing. Smaller rooms mean better conversations and a much higher chance you meet the two or three people who matter for what you're building. To be considered, apply here: [https://luma.com/yfs25nmn](https://luma.com/yfs25nmn) The form takes about two minutes. We'll ask for: * Your name and where you work * What you're building, investing in, or researching * Your role (founder / engineer / security lead / investor / researcher / other) * What you're hoping to get out of the evening We review applications on a rolling basis and confirm attendees by email. Applying early genuinely helps — once we're at capacity we close the list. If you're not selected this time, you'll be first in line for the next one. **What to expect** * [2–3 short talks] from founders and practitioners building at the intersection — offensive AI, AI-native defense tooling, securing LLM applications, compliance under the EU AI Act * An open Q&A where hard questions are welcome * Long-form networking **Who we're looking for** Founders (pre-idea to Series B), security engineers and researchers, red teamers, CISOs and security leads, VCs and angels active in the space, and serious people looking to move into it.
