UX Monday: Jak AI mění research i design proces
**Je design proces mrtvý, nebo není?**
AI umí postavit skoro cokoliv. O to víc záleží na tom, co jí zadáme. Discovery a výzkum dnes rozhodují víc než kdy dřív.
Výzkum už nedělá jen výzkumník. Prototypy nevznikají ve Figmě, ale v kódu. Designéři commitují a shipují. A hranice mezi designem, researchem a engineeringem se stírá rychleji, než stíháme aktualizovat workflow.
UX Monday 4. května je o tom, jak to vypadá v praxi, když přestanete ctít procesy ze setrvačnosti a začnete je přepisovat za pochodu.
Dva pohledy, dvě perspektivy:
🎤[ ](https://www.linkedin.com/in/erikvanek/)**[Erik Vaněk](https://www.linkedin.com/in/erikvanek/)** – o tom, proč „design proces je mrtvý" je mýtus a co se naopak dramaticky mění. Konkrétní příklady z poslední doby: demokratizace researche, prototypování přímo v kódu, zkracování feedback loopů. Upřímně o tom, co funguje, co ne, kde jsou rizika a kde jsou lidi pořád nenahraditelní.
🎤 **[Anna Kutíková](https://www.linkedin.com/in/anna-kutikova/)** & **[Jiří Groh](https://www.linkedin.com/in/grohjiri/)** – o tom, jak v Oh-So přepnuli mindset celé agentury, umožnili designérům commitovat, shipovat a využívat AI engineering. Co to udělalo s rolemi, handoffem a hlavně se spoluprací s vývojem.
Hosted by **[Michal Strnadel](https://www.linkedin.com/in/michal-strnadel/)**.

Czech Co-Learning Session 🇨🇿
Learning Czech can be hard and demotivating, especially when studying alone.
**This meetup is a shared study session where we come together to stay focused, motivated, and make progress — each in our own way.**
This is a co-learning / co-studying session, not a class. There is no teacher, no lesson, and no study material provided.
Everyone comes with their own resources and studies independently, in a shared environment.
🧠 **How it works**
• We all bring our own material:
• textbooks
• homework from a Czech course
• Duolingo or other apps
• reading practice
• vocabulary review, etc.
• We mainly work individually
• We are free to:
• ask questions
• help each other
• share tips and resources
• No teacher, no formal structure, no pressure
👥 **Who is it for?**
• Czech learners of all levels
• Non-Czech speakers (expats, internationals)
• Czech native speakers are welcome if they want to help, but this is not a language exchange
⏱ **Practical info**
• Location: Cafedu
12, Škrétova 490, 120 00 Praha 2
(Metro A and C, Muzeum station)
• Duration: 2 hours, or less or more, as you want
• Day & time: Monday, 18:00
• Group size: small group for now
• Free event — please support the café by ordering a drink ☕
If you’re learning Czech and lack motivation when studying alone, come join us — let’s find it together 🙂

If you love to move and want to make new friends, simply show up on Friday and let’s dance!! 💃🔥
*Tančírna (pronounced tahn-cheer-nah) comes from the Czech word "tančit" (to dance) and literally means "a place for dancing".*
**Pro-tip:** Pack a water bottle to stay hydrated 💧 and a hoodie for when the sun goes down! Ordering drinks/food at the local restaurant is possible, but it breaks the flow, so we usually do it after we wrap up. 💃🔥
Prague: Friday Night Art Workshop & Prosecco
Spend your Friday evening in Prague in a creative and relaxed way. Join our acrylic painting on canvas workshop, perfect even if you’ve never painted before.

What to expect:
• Acrylic painting workshop on canvas (beginner-friendly)
• Guidance from a professional artist throughout the session

• All materials included
This experience is a perfect way to create a unique souvenir from Prague – a piece of art you can take home for your interior or give as a meaningful gift to someone special.
Whether you come alone, with friends, or as a couple, this workshop is a great alternative to typical nightlife and one of the most memorable things to do in Prague.
Board Game Night
Calling all board game enthusiasts in Prague!
Join us for an exciting evening of fun and games at Sophie's Hostel! Whether you're a seasoned strategist or just looking for a casual night of entertainment, this event is perfect for everyone.
Bring along your favourite board games or discover new ones from our collection. From classic favorites like Settlers of Catan, Carcassone or Ticket to Ride to modern gems like Codenames, Wyrmspan or Azul; from the simple UNO, Jenga or Pachisi to heavyweights like Brass: Birmingham, Root or Inis - there's something for every taste!
Connect with fellow expats, make new friends, and challenge your skills in a welcoming and laid-back atmosphere. Don't worry if you're new to the city or don't know anyone — this is the perfect opportunity to mingle and bond over a shared love of tabletop gaming.
Every Wednesday from 19 to... whenever they start preparing breakfast at the hostel.
Mark your calendars, gather your game crew, and get ready for an unforgettable night of board game bliss!
There is no entrance fee, but please support the hostel by ordering drinks.

Choose Your Movie: THE SHEEP DETECTIVES vs HOKUM at Cinemark Stoneridge!
Join us as we get together to see your choice of two VERY different movies – one sweet and wholesome – the other a terrifying folklore horror! Option 1 is the fun whodunnit-action-comedy-mystery led by Hugh Jackman, THE SHEEP DETECTIVES! Option 2 is the top-reviewed supernatural-horror-thriller starring Adam Scott, HOKUM! Here’s a description, trailer and plan for this event:
THE SHEEP DETECTIVES: Every night a shepherd reads aloud a murder mystery, pretending his sheep can understand. When he is found dead, the sheep realize at once that it was a murder and think they know everything about how to go about solving it. The film is directed by Kyle Balda and take a look at this ensemble cast: Hugh Jackman, Nicholas Braun, Molly Gordon, Hong Chau and Emma Thompson and the voices of Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Bryan Cranston, Chris O'Dowd, Regina Hall, Patrick Stewart, Bella Ramsey, Brett Goldstein and Rhys Darby. TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pyZI5oM6hWk
HOKUM: In this film, a horror writer visits an Irish inn to scatter his parents' ashes, unaware the property is said to be haunted by a witch. It is written/directed by Damian McCarthy stars Adam Scott, Peter Coonan, David Wilmot, Florence Ordesh and Austin Amelio. Hokum premiered to rave reviews at this year’s SXSW Festival and is being release by Neon. It is earning a stellar 97% positive rating on Rotten Tomatoes, which calls it, “A classic haunted house story enriched with atmospheric folklore and perfectly-timed shocks!” TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EVCIK_MPyhc
PLAN: We’ll plan for a 7pm-ish showing of both films and will meet inside the theater lobby about 20 minutes before showtime. If the showtimes work out, we’ll try to get both groups together for a bite before the shows! Complete details and showtime will be confirmed/announced as the date gets closer.
Look forward to seeing you there, Dan
