Building the wrong things faster. AI and the Build Trap

Tue, May 26, 8:00 AM

From Product Builders & Business Analysts | Australia

4.4

**🏢 Hosted at:** Fabric Group **🚀 Building the Wrong Thing Faster: AI and the Build Trap** AI has dramatically compressed the time it takes to build software. But it hasn't stopped us building products that nobody wants. If anything, it's accelerated the problem - to the point we've invented a new word for the output: ***slop***. Drawing on observations from Brendan's consulting work and conversations with friends at ***Google, Meta and Spotify***, He'll explore how this ***isn't really a new problem*** and why now, more than ever, we need human centricity, sound product strategy and product discovery. **🎤 Speakers:** ***Brendan Marsh*** is a Product & Org Advisor and Director at ***Organa***, where he helps organisations improve product strategy, org design and execution at scale. He previously served as ***Chief Product Officer*** of a mental health non-profit and spent five years at ***Spotify*** during its hyper-growth phase, first as an ***Agile Coach*** supporting innovation and product discovery teams and later as a ***Product Manager*** responsible for the Mac and Windows clients (40M+ MAU). ***Ruben Cardoso*** is the ***Head of Product & Design*** at ***Fabric Group***. An experienced UX/UI designer specialising in product design and delivery, with a strong track record running discovery-to-delivery cycles for large enterprise clients. ***Dzmitry Yaltykhau*** is the ***Delivery Practice Lead*** at ***Fabric Group.*** Leads large-scale product design and delivery programs end-to-end from presales through discovery, build and rollout while driving best practices, coaching and AI-accelerated ways of working across the team. **🗓 Agenda:** Arrival and light refreshments Featured Talk Panel discussion with contributions from Fabric and the audience

The lighting. The energy. The conversations that don’t feel forced. After an incredible response and a sold-out March event, KISMETRIX returns to Valhalla — one of Melbourne’s most beautifully hidden underground cocktail bars — for another refined evening designed for genuine connection. No interviews across tiny tables. No chaotic nightclub energy. No pressure to perform.

24 May: Figurine Painting and Friends-Social

Sun, May 24, 3:00 AM

From Hue&Crew: Figurine Painting with new friends🎨

**✨Are you tired of making ‘how are you’ friends? This event is for you!✨** 🎨What better way to build and deepen connections than through a fun activity like **Figurine painting**! There are many social events but it isn’t easy to feel connected to someone in a large group setting. I am super extroverted yet found myself walking home after a great social feeling more lonely, because of all the superficial connections made. I started Hue&Crew to help people build their next close-friend circle based on age, personality and interest! 🎨**What to Expect** This isn’t a big mixer event, every event has a limit of 6 people per table and a fishbowl full of conversation starters to help people get started! We move around Melbourne's many beautiful cafes weekly to keep things fresh! Expect: * A fresh, comfy venue * A hosted structure so you’re never left awkwardly quiet * A fishbowl of conversation starters for the introverts * A relaxed atmosphere where you can genuinely be yourself * Hand-painted figurines you made yourself to bring home Each group is curated to feel natural, matched by age, interest and personality 🎨**Notice before you sign up:** As the events are really small and it might take some time to form a group with similar interests, we will inform you when there is a suitable group for you! **RSVP now:** [https://forms.gle/4MN6oygujee9qmej9](https://forms.gle/4MN6oygujee9qmej9) **Take a look at our instagram page to see past public events**👇 [https://www.instagram.com/reel/DXY8PXADXsm/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==](https://www.instagram.com/reel/DXY8PXADXsm/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==) **Bring a friend for a 10% Discount for the both of you!**

UPGRADED. AND A WHOLE LOT OF FUN. Never done trivia? Perfect. Neither has half the room. This isn't about what you know. It's about who you end up laughing with by the end of the night. The KISMETRIX Trivia Night is back — and this year we've stepped it up. We now have our own in-house host and an exclusive private room just for Kismetrix guests. Same great energy from last year, but more intimate, more personal, and a whole lot more fun. No speed dating. No awkward mingling. No standing around with a drink wondering what to say. Just teams, trivia, a bit of friendly rivalry, and the kind of atmosphere where strangers become easy company. #### 💫 ABOUT THE NIGHT Tired of the same old bar scene? Not quite ready for a formal dinner event? This is the sweet spot. KISMETRIX \| True Connection was created for people who want something more human — real conversation\, real presence\, and a genuine good time\. The Trivia Night is our most fun and relaxed format\, and it's exclusively for Kismetrix guests\. You'll walk into a private room full of people who: 🎯 Are open, friendly and easy-going 🎯 Want a fun night out that feels natural — not forced 🎯 Prefer real-life connection over swiping 🎯 Are simply here to enjoy themselves and see where the night goes Come for the trivia. Stay for the laughs. See who you meet along the way. #### 🎯 WHAT TO EXPECT You'll arrive to a private room — no general public, just Kismetrix guests. You'll be placed into a small team of around six, the questions will start, and within ten minutes you'll forget you didn't know anyone when you walked in. Expect: 🎯 A welcome drink waiting when you arrive 🎯 A warm hosted welcome so nobody walks in feeling lost 🎯 Fun, accessible trivia rounds — no expertise required 🎯 Rotating teams through the night so you meet different people across different rounds 🎯 A mystery round (yes, really) 🎯 A prize worth playing for 🎯 Plenty of laughs, friendly arguing, and genuinely good company Our in-house Kismetrix host keeps the energy warm and the night moving — so it always feels like a night out with good people, not a structured event. #### 👥 AGE GUIDE 🎯 25–35 · 30–45 · 40–58 Kismetrix Trivia Night is open to all singles who are here for a good time and genuine connection. We provide age groups so you know what to expect from the room. The focus is always on good energy and like-minded people — not strict age gates. If you're slightly outside a range and the format feels right for you, you're welcome to book. #### 🎯 WHO THIS NIGHT IS FOR This event is for singles who: 🎯 Want a fun, social night out that's a little different 🎯 Are curious about Kismetrix but want a low-pressure way to start 🎯 Love trivia — or have never done it but like the sound of it 🎯 Want to meet new people without it feeling like a "singles event" 🎯 Are open, friendly, and ready for a genuinely good Thursday night Come solo — most people do. You'll be in good company from the moment you walk in. #### 🍽 FOOD & DRINKS Your ticket includes one standard welcome drink on arrival. Konar Bar has a great food and drinks menu available throughout the night, directly from the venue. Perfect if you'd like to make a full evening of it — and many of our guests do. #### 🎟 TICKETS 🎯 Early Bird — $39 🎯 General — $49 🎯 Last Minute — $59 Welcome drink included at every tier.

Just real people in a real room 🎯 No awkward formats or forced interactions 🎯 A genuinely fun night — even if you come solo 🎯 Exclusively for Kismetrix guests — private room, warm atmosphere 🎯 Hosted by people who actually care about how the night feels Many guests come "just to try it" — and end up staying all night. #### ✨ WHERE THE TRIVIA NIGHT FITS The KISMETRIX Trivia Night sits alongside our Drinks Socials, Elevated Dinners, and Activity Nights as one of our most fun and accessible formats.

Live event streams are handled using KQL/Eventhouse, enabling low‑latency dashboards and operational insights with minimal processing overhead. In parallel, near real‑time and batch data is processed using governed, lightweight Fabric patterns designed for efficiency and scale. The outcome is a single, capacity‑aware Fabric platform where real‑time and analytical workloads coexist cleanly, with Power BI as the unified consumption layer. **About The Speaker** Arjun Shankar has over a decade of experience turning data challenges into scalable, cloud-first platforms that drive real business decisions. He has worked across banking, finance, transport, insurance, and energy, specialising in the Azure stack: Synapse, Data Factory, Databricks, PySpark, and Fabric. From reducing platform costs, to accelerating delivery, and putting self-service analytics in the hands of the people who need it. Outside work, he's usually out on a trail, training for his next marathon, or keeping up with two young boys. We’re excited to bring the Data Engineering Melbourne Meetup group together for an evening with Arjun and his insights!
