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 🙂

On Thursday, 9th of July, we’re going to meet and discuss Friedrich Hayek’s essay *The Use of Knowledge in Society*. First published in 1945, it is widely regarded as one of the most influential essays in economics and political philosophy of the twentieth century. In the essay, Hayek explores a simple question: how can society make use of knowledge that is dispersed among millions of individuals? He argues that no single person, expert, corporation, or government possesses all the information needed to organize a complex economy. Instead, much of the knowledge relevant to social cooperation exists only in fragmented and local forms – in the experiences, circumstances, and decisions of ordinary people. According to Hayek, the price system acts as a remarkable mechanism for communicating and coordinating this knowledge without anyone needing to understand the whole picture. The essay raises broader questions that extend far beyond economics. How much can society be consciously designed? What are the limits of expertise? When should we trust centralized planning, and when should we rely on decentralized processes? Let’s discuss! Friedrich Hayek (1899–1992) was an Austrian-British economist, political philosopher, and one of the leading defenders of classical liberalism in the twentieth century. His work explored the nature of markets, knowledge, law, and social institutions. In 1974, he received the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences for his contributions to the understanding of economic and social order. ⸻ Anyone is welcome to join! No background in economics or philosophy is needed. Before the meeting, please read the essay (it’s only about 15 pages long), think about it, and note any passages you find especially interesting, challenging, or worth discussing. We’ll share our thoughts and interpretations during the meeting. Organizational notes: 📍 Attendance is free ⏳ Spots are limited 🔗 Please register via the app so we know how many people to expect and can reserve a table accordingly

## **What IdeaVerse is about** **We meet usually once a month to discuss some of the current challenges as well and perhaps come up with new ideas on how to overcome them. The format of the meeting includes an initial sharing of viewpoints by each participant without judgment, and in the second half we will discuss our ideas and try to find things to learn from each other.** **In this next meeting we'll be discussing a second time (focusing on discussing strategies and solutions to adapt or work around this issue this time)...** the future of work in the age of AI. I know, people are talking too much about this already in tech meetups where they just praise it to Kingdom Come. We're tired of it. But whether we like that it exists or not, we are confronted with a choice that I'd like us to discuss: **Do I lean into AI like I'm told I HAVE TO, or choose a different path, one more into physical labor or working with people? Or do I just say goodbye to work and start my own business?** We hear thhat AI is going to replace a large number of jobs, starting with call centers, Uber drivers, writers, graphic designers, translators, etc. That a senior expert will replace 4 others in his team using AI. That the only jobs that will remain are those which require human touch like holding meetings, talking face to face with customers, jobs that require empathy or jobs that require dexterity like plumbing. **But the path forward seems so unclear:** 1\. Who should learn AI: young people who want to compete with seniors\, or seniors because juniors don't know enough to spot errors? 2\. Should I double down on AI courses and certificates or jump a sinking ship and learn a craft or improve my social work skills? Or start my own business to escape irrelevance at work? 3\. Do we go with the flow and adapt to this rapid overwhelming change\, or demand from policy makers that they do not let companies do as they please if that means lower wages and unemployment at scale? **Some suggested reading/watching:** * [If AI Takes All Of Our Jobs... Who's Going To Buy Everything?](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MYB0SVTGRj4) (the answer may shock you! :) - a 12 minute video) - good summary of the most likely future scenarios for automation and economics. Does not answer our questions but sets the scene for it. * [AI Experts: These Are The Only 5 Jobs That Will Remain in 2030!](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GCjmK66x_Yk) (15 minute video) - a collage of various human and AI experts discussing options for work in the future (mostly from the famous DOAC). * [Why Companies Are Quietly Rehiring Software Engineers](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OFmxKgaLN80) (9 minute video) - some good news, at least for experienced developers; AI can be overhyped. **The meeting is free to attend, but please buy a drink or two at our patron's place, to make them happy. They also have food in case you find the meeting too early (see [menu](https://altangrebovka.choiceqr.com/section:kavarna---jidelni-listek)).**
