🚀 **Industry Talks Through AI \| AI Through Her Lens** 🤝 In collaboration with **AI Hub Albania** **R-Ladies Tirana** is excited to host a special edition dedicated to **Women in Technology and AI**, bringing together a dynamic community of professionals, researchers, and future innovators. 🎤 **Open Lectures** • *AI Literacy in Modern STEM* \- Joana Bala • *The Mirror and The Machine* \- Alba Halilaj This edition highlights how women are actively shaping AI and driving real-world impact across industries. 👥 **Who should attend?** • Women in tech, data, and AI • Students and early-career professionals • Anyone interested in AI, innovation, and impact 📍 AI Hub Albania, Tirana / Online

**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you. The building address is 4450 Bridge Park The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400 **Abstract** Web Forms gave .NET developers a powerful abstraction for building reusable UI controls long before design systems were a thing. Web Components finally bring that same idea to the browser natively. This session explores how the Web Forms mindset translates into Custom Elements, Shadow DOM, and HTML templates. We’ll examine how Web Components enable design systems that work across frameworks, how they differ from server‑driven controls, and why they’re becoming a foundational layer for modern UI. Whether you’re maintaining legacy apps or building greenfield projects, you’ll leave with a practical understanding of how to apply familiar patterns in a modern, standards‑based way. **YouTube Link** [https://youtube.com/live/fD2cYeKp_UU?feature=share](https://youtube.com/live/fD2cYeKp_UU?feature=share)

**First meetup of the Columbus AI Engineering group.** We’ll kick things off with a practical, beginner-friendly discussion on: **How LLMs like ChatGPT actually work — and how to build real applications with them.** We’ll cover: * what’s actually happening under the hood (at a high level) * why LLMs behave the way they do (hallucinations, prompt sensitivity, etc.) * how people are building real systems with them today * where things break in practice This will be a **short, informal talk (\~15–20 min)** followed by open discussion and Q&A. Whether you’re an engineer, builder, or just curious about how modern AI systems work, you’re welcome to join. No slides, no fluff — just real conversation about real systems. We’ll hang out afterward and get to know each other.
