Professional Development

Join us on June 15th for the 10th Trustworthy AI Community Meetup in Luxembourg, hosted by the **SnT research center** in collaboration with **Cloud Security Alliance (CSA) Luxembourg Chapter**. In addition to guided networking at the end, the event will feature a session dedicate to **When the Word Becomes Co-Creation: Replacing the work, not the worker.** We are at a turning point where artificial intelligence is moving from a passive tool we chat with into an active participant we delegate tasks to. Today, our language is no longer just communication - it is the direct catalyst for action. But as these systems become capable of generating outcomes much faster than we can manually review them, we face a profoundly human challenge: how do we maintain trust and control? If we rely on these tools blindly, we risk letting the algorithms subtly steer our judgment, as they are naturally inclined to be compliant and simply mirror our own flawed assumptions back to us. In this session, we will explore the human side of Trustworthy AI. We will discuss why the true promise of these systems lies in elevating human potential, how to cultivate a dynamic of genuine co-creation where the AI acts as a collaborative partner that challenges our assumptions, and the ways to confidently shift our trust from overseeing daily actions to orchestrating broader, more impactful outcomes. Whether you are a manager, developer, creator, or an everyday consumer, join us to discover how to actively cooperate with AI today. We will discuss how to secure your position as the orchestrator of this technology, ensuring it empowers your decisions rather than overriding them. Our guest speaker for this talk is [Dr. Evgeny Zotov](https://www.linkedin.com/in/ezotov/). Evgeny is an Applied AI Architect and automation enthusiast with extensive experience in artificial intelligence, machine learning, large language models, and data-driven systems. He is currently a Research Associate at the Interdisciplinary Centre for Security, Reliability and Trust at the University of Luxembourg, where he works on research projects with government and industrial partners. His work focuses on designing and implementing AI solutions across sectors such as finance, manufacturing, and healthcare. Before joining the University of Luxembourg, Evgeny worked as a Postdoctoral Researcher at the University of Sheffield, where he applied statistical modelling, prediction techniques, and machine learning to manufacturing process optimization, and contributed to healthcare technology through the development of JointCalc, a patient decision-support tool. Prior to his research career, he spent nearly a decade at Accenture, progressing from intern to team lead and leading data warehouse, mobile banking, and enterprise application projects for major banking clients, building strong expertise in application architecture, data systems, automation, and software delivery. His perspective bridges advanced AI research and real-world business applications, making him a valuable voice on the evolving role of AI across industries.

In a country full of opportunities, many people still quietly ask themselves: · How do I move forward? · How do I create opportunities instead of waiting for them?

Join the Columbus AI community for a special event. **Battle of the Personal Agents** is your chance to see what people are actually building with AI agents and personal automation systems. Whether you’re running OpenClaw, Hermes, or a completely custom solution, bring your agent and show the community how it works. We’re interested in real-world implementations: the problems your agent solves, how you use it day-to-day, how it’s hosted and managed, how you built it, and why you’ve chosen to keep using it. Live demonstrations are encouraged, so be prepared to show your code, architecture, workflows, and your agent performing real tasks. This is less about polished presentations and more about sharing practical experience, comparing approaches, and learning from one another. If you’d like to present, please contact Chris Slee (via meetup) before the event so we can allocate enough time for everyone’s demonstrations. Come ready to show what you’ve built, discover what others are doing, and maybe find a few ideas worth taking home. Whether you’re deep in the field or just getting curious, come connect with others building and exploring AI in Columbus.
