The state deals with a lot of money. People and organisations need to declare, file, and pay taxes or receive returns if they overpaid the state. Tax contributions amount to billions of euros, funding public goods such as infrastructure, education, social welfare, and defence. In the 13th edition of our meetup series, we take a closer look at research and design in public finance and taxation, exploring diverse perspectives from 3 speakers. The evening aims to spark a discussion about the government’s or the state’s role, and how it can be accommodating to citizens, residents, and business owners. We will hear from: * Manuel Großmann (Taxfix) * Merici Vinton (formerly US Digital Service) * Sonja Wilczek (DigitalService des Bundes) The federal government’s DigitalService is hosting the meetup on the mezzanine floor of its Kreuzberg office. All presentations will be given in English. Questions in the later discussion part can be raised in either English or German. The event is jointly organised and hosted by CityLAB Berlin and DigitalService.

We are excited to feature **Georgia Channing**, who is currently leading the AI for Science team at **Hugging Face** and will discuss "**When Silicon Meets Carbon: Bringing Synthetic Biology to Life**", 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**: Foundation models have transformed how we read and design biological systems, from protein structure prediction to the generation of novel sequences. But building these models is as much an engineering problem as a scientific one. This talk looks at what it takes to bring AI for biology from research into practice, and at the challenges that make science a uniquely demanding domain for machine learning. We will cover how foundation models for biology are trained and deployed at scale, why scientific data is so different from the text and images that drive mainstream AI, and where the gap between a benchmark result and a real biological discovery still lies. The aim is to show how modern AI connects to living systems, and what we need to get right for synthetic biology to fully benefit from it. **Bio**: Georgia Channing is the AI for Science Lead at Hugging Face, working at the intersection of machine learning and the natural sciences. She read for her Master’s and PhD in computer science at the University of Oxford, with a focus on applying AI to scientific discovery. Her work has spanned a wide range of AI-for-science areas, including remote sensing, biophysics, and materials design. She now focuses on building open tools, models, and communities that make scientific research more accessible, collaborative, and reproducible. 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.

A dark stand-up work-in-progress English comedy hour about Sofia May's experience as a former assistant of Buddhist cult leader A dark stand-up work-in-progress comedy hour about Sofia May's experience as a former member of a Buddhist cult's inner circle, working as the assistant of a very chic, diabolical, female cult leader. After living the life of a religious Buddhist zealot in a secluded community deep into the Colorado Rocky Mountains for years, Sofia hit the road and blew the whistle. It isn't a famous cult yet, but through exposés, podcasts and general trash-talking, it will be in a year. What's more, now a self-proclaimed "Buddhaphobe", she intends to ruin your relationship with Buddhism too.
