What I built using AI
What I built using AI
Hello tech enthusiasts, builders, and innovators! Welcome to the next edition of LuxTechPulse & [GDG Luxembourg](https://gdg.community.dev/gdg-luxembourg/) meetup. This time, we are skipping boring theory and diving straight into the real stuff: **"What I built using AI."** No fluff—just real-world use cases, live showcases, lessons learned, and practical insights. 🎙️ **Meet the Speakers** * **PlayPrompt: a platform for kids to create games with AI** by ***[Anselmo Talotta](https://www.linkedin.com/in/anselmotalotta/)*** Anselmo will take us behind the scenes of his amazing project, PlayPrompt. You'll discover how modern AI helps the next generation turn their wild imaginations into playable games without writing a single line of code, and the technical challenges of building a platform tailored for young creators. * **Career Repo - an open-source job hunt copilot that runs entirely on your machine** by ***[Dmitrii Petukhov](https://www.linkedin.com/in/donmutti/)*** Career Repo is a local tool that scans your inbox and finds job opportunities that match your work experience and preferences. It scores each opportunity 0 to 10, and generates cover letters based on your writing style. Career Repo feels like a daily organiser – familiar, calm, always one click away, bookmarked in your browser as "Career". You return to it when something interesting in your professional life happens: a new career opportunity, an interview, a role change. All artifacts – cover letters, CV snapshots, case studies – are downloadable at any moment, ready to send to a recruiter or a partner. Over years, it becomes the single place that knows your entire professional story. 🕒 **Agenda** * **18:00 – 18:30** \| Meet\, grab a drink\, and casual networking * **18:30 – 19:40** \| Talks \+ Q&A sessions * **20:00 – 21:00** \| Open mic \(pitch your own AI project\!\) and networking > 📢 **Want to showcase your project?** If you have built something cool using AI lately—whether it's a minor automation script, a fun side project, or a full-scale startup—and want to share it during the open mic, reach out to the organizers! 📍 **Where:** We are meeting in the café on the upper floor at Independent Café. Please hit **[RSVP](https://gdg.community.dev/events/details/google-gdg-luxembourg-presents-what-i-built-using-ai/)** by the link so we can secure enough spots at the café! See you there to catch the tech pulse! ⚡️
Soirée Energie de l'été
Soirée Energie de l'été
Respecter nos besoins est essentiel pour maintenir notre énergie à un niveau suffisant pour rester en bonne santé et dans un état d'esprit joyeux. L'été est souvent ce moment où l'on fait le point : nos besoins sont-ils vraiment satisfaits ? On prend de bonnes résolutions… mais elles s'effacent vite. Venez explorer vos besoins, comment vous les ressentez énergétiquement en vous et comment vous percevez et respectez les besoins des autres. Vous repartirez avec une idée plus claire de ce dont vous avez besoin aujourd'hui pour bien fonctionner. **Infos pratiques :** * Luxembourg-Ville * Tarif : 40 € par personne * Places limitées Pour vous inscrire, écrivez-moi à **prezens.coaching@gmail.com !**

Lean Agentic AI: Optimising AI
Lean Agentic AI: Optimising AI
In dieser Session dreht sich alles um die **Optimierung agentischer KI** unter dem Gesichtspunkt der Ökologie. Mit der zunehmenden Verbreitung von KI in Unternehmen entwickeln sich Token-Verbrauch, Inferenzkosten, Orchestrierungsaufwand und Kontextmanagement zu entscheidenden betrieblichen Herausforderungen. Die nächste Phase der KI-Entwicklung wird nicht nur von der Intelligenz der Modelle abhängen, sondern auch davon, wie effizient diese Intelligenz orchestriert, gesteuert und skaliert werden kann. Lean Agentic AI stellt einen architektonischen Ansatz vor, der Lean-Engineering-Prinzipien auf agentische Systeme anwendet – wodurch unnötiger Token-Verbrauch reduziert, redundantes Schlussfolgern minimiert und die Recheneffizienz durch modulare Agenten, selektive Orchestrierung, adaptives Gedächtnis und abrufgesteuerte Intelligenz optimiert wird. Somit verringert sich automatisch auch die Umweltauswirkung von KI. Zu Gast haben wir Navveen Balani, Executive Director bei der Green Software Foundation und ausgewiesener Experte in der Anwendung und Optimierung von KI. Er zeigt und, wie tokenbewusste Architekturen Skalierbarkeit, Latenz, Governance und ROI verbessern können und es uns gleichzeitig ermöglichen, produktionsreife KI-Ökosysteme aufzubauen, die effizient, kontrollierbar und in großem Maßstab nachhaltig sind. Die Diskussion basiert auf den Konzepten aus dem Buch des Autors, „Lean Agentic AI“.

Customize the IDE: Building Extensions for Visual Studio Code - Alan Barber
**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 You will need to scan your ID at the door to get a visitor badge. **Abstract** *Customize the IDE: Building Extensions for Visual Studio Code* Visual Studio Code is one of the most widely used development environments today, and much of its flexibility comes from its extension ecosystem. Extensions allow developers to customize the editor with new features, integrations, and workflow improvements tailored to their needs. In this session, we’ll cover what extensions are and the different types available, including full extensions written in TypeScript or JavaScript, along with lighter-weight extensions such as color themes, language packs, language support, code snippets, and keymaps. We’ll also look at practical reasons a developer might create an extension, from automating repetitive tasks to adding custom tooling. The session includes a hands-on walkthrough of creating a new extension, testing it locally, and understanding the basic project structure. We’ll close with a brief overview of how extensions are packaged and published to the Visual Studio Marketplace and other distribution options. **YouTube Link** TBD
