Την Κυριακή 21 Ιουνίου 2026, στις 18:30, συναντιόμαστε στο Gazi College Piraeus για ένα meetup αφιερωμένο στο Best Practices For AI Content Creators και στις νέες δεξιότητες που χρειάζονται οι content creators, copywriters, bloggers, marketers και digital professionals στην εποχή της Τεχνητής Νοημοσύνης. Όλες και όλοι μιλούν για AI content. Όμως το μεγάλο ερώτημα παραμένει: πώς δημιουργούμε περιεχόμενο με τη βοήθεια της Τεχνητής Νοημοσύνης χωρίς να χάνεται η ποιότητα, η αυθεντικότητα, η στρατηγική σκέψη και η ανθρώπινη φωνή μας; Ήρθε η ώρα να δούμε μαζί τι σημαίνει πραγματικά premium AI content. Όχι βιαστικά prompts. Όχι γενικά κείμενα που μοιάζουν μεταξύ τους. Όχι περιεχόμενο που απλώς γεμίζει σελίδες και feeds. Αλλά περιεχόμενο που έχει σκοπό, δομή, ακρίβεια, προσωπικότητα, SEO αξία, AI visibility και πραγματική χρησιμότητα για τον άνθρωπο που το διαβάζει. Στο meetup θα εξερευνήσουμε μαζί: * Πώς χρησιμοποιούμε το AI ως συνεργάτη σκέψης και όχι ως αυτόματο αντικαταστάτη. * Ποια είναι τα βασικά best practices για να δημιουργούμε premium AI-assisted content. * Πώς προστατεύουμε τη δική μας φωνή, εμπειρία και επαγγελματική ταυτότητα μέσα σε AI-generated περιεχόμενο. * Πώς συνδέονται το AI, το SEO, το AEO, το GEO και τα LLMs με τη νέα πραγματικότητα της ψηφιακής ορατότητας. * Πώς μπορούμε να κάνουμε ένα AI κείμενο πιο καθαρό, πιο αξιόπιστο, πιο ανθρώπινο και πιο χρήσιμο. * Ποια λάθη κάνουν συχνά οι creators όταν χρησιμοποιούν AI εργαλεία για blogs, newsletters, social media και websites. * Πώς χτίζουμε περιεχόμενο που μπορεί να διαβαστεί, να κατανοηθεί και να προταθεί τόσο από ανθρώπους όσο και από AI συστήματα. * Αν χρησιμοποιείς ήδη AI εργαλεία αλλά νιώθεις ότι το αποτέλεσμα χρειάζεται περισσότερη ποιότητα, προσωπικότητα και στρατηγική, αυτό το meetup είναι για σένα. * Αν θέλεις να καταλάβεις τι σημαίνουν στην πράξη όροι όπως AEO, GEO, LLM Optimization, AI Visibility και AI Agents για τη δουλειά σου, αυτό το meetup είναι για σένα. **Αν θέλεις να δημιουργείς περιεχόμενο που δεν ακούγεται πρόχειρο, γενικό ή άψυχο, αλλά έχει επαγγελματική αξία και ανθρώπινη παρουσία, τότε έλα στην παρέα μας.** * Ημερομηνία: Κυριακή 21 Ιουνίου 2026 * Ώρα: 18:30 * Τοποθεσία: Gazi College Piraeus * Θεματική: Best Practices For Premium AI Content * Γλώσσα: Ελληνικά * Δωρεάν συμμετοχή – κράτηση απαραίτητη! * Οι θέσεις είναι περιορισμένες – κράτησε τη δική σου εγκαίρως. Την συζήτηση θα συντονίσει η **Αρετή Βάσσου**, ιδρύτρια του **[IDEADECO SEO Copywriting Agency.](https://ideadeco.co/)** **Λίγα λόγια για εμάς:** Στον κύκλο των **Female Copywriters & Content Creators** δίνουμε χώρο και φωνή σε επαγγελματίες γυναίκες που δραστηριοποιούνται στους τομείς του digital marketing, SEO, AI, AEO, GEO, copywriting, blogging, content writing, web design, development, photography, podcasting και digital content creation. Έχουμε ήδη εκπαιδεύσει πάνω από **3.150 γυναίκες** σε όλα τα σύγχρονα εργαλεία του digital κόσμου, και συνεχίζουμε με έμπνευση, φροντίδα και ομαδικότητα. Σε περιμένουμε να μοιραστούμε εμπειρίες, απορίες και έμπνευση, πάντα με καφέ, φιλική διάθεση και ουσιαστικό επαγγελματικό networking! ***Όροι Χρήσης & Πολιτική Απορρήτου:*** *Με τη συμμετοχή σας αποδέχεστε τη χρήση, διατήρηση και επεξεργασία των απαραίτητων προσωπικών δεδομένων για την ομαλή λειτουργία του meetup (όνομα, επίθετο, email, τηλέφωνο, ιστοσελίδα, blog, social media). Επιπλέον, αποδέχεστε τη δημοσίευση των φωτογραφιών & βίντεο που σας συμπεριλαμβάνουν, στα ψηφιακά κανάλια του [ideadeco.co](https://ideadeco.co/) και των επιλεγμένων χορηγών.* * Οι συμμετέχουσες δεν μπορούν να χρησιμοποιήσουν κανένα τύπο εγγραφής ήχου, βίντεο, εικόνας και αναπαραγωγής κειμένου χωρίς την έγγραφη άδεια μας. * Σε περίπτωση ακύρωσης, το meetup θα μεταφερθεί σε νέα ημερομηνία. * Ακολουθούμε τις τρέχουσες υγειονομικές οδηγίες προστασίας. * Δεν επιτρέπεται η συμμετοχή σε παιδιά.

Tired of dating apps or surface-level social events? This is different. Relational Labs is a guided connection experience for singles who want more honest, playful, emotionally intelligent interaction — without performance, pressure, or endless small talk. This is not speed dating. Not networking. Not “pitch yourself to strangers.” It’s a facilitated relational container rooted in psychology, emotional intelligence, attachment work, social dynamics, nervous system awareness, and real-world human connection — made practical enough that you can actually live it instead of reading another 50 books about it. ## What happens • A 2-hour guided online relational experience • Real-time connection exercises designed to create authentic interaction • A format that adapts in real time to whoever is present • Optional participant-led in-person continuation afterward • WhatsApp connection thread after the session ## This may be for you if: • You’re tired of shallow or repetitive social spaces • You want deeper connection without forced intimacy • You enjoy personal growth, psychology, communication, or relational work • You’re open to meeting people in a more intentional way ## Important This experience runs with whoever is present and takes its own shape each time. Sometimes expansive. Sometimes intimate. Both are the real thing. Booking happens through our website. 👉 Reserve your spot: [https://consciousconnectionsclub.com/join](https://consciousconnectionsclub.com/join) Optional in-person continuation: same day or within 48 hours depending on the city Most people come alone. People often leave surprised by how quickly strangers can feel human, warm, honest, and real. Sometimes awkwardness turns into ease. Sometimes curiosity turns into chemistry. Sometimes people simply remember what it feels like to actually connect again.

Καλησπέρα σε όλους! Την **Τετάρτη 17 Ιουνίου στις 19.00** θα συναντηθούμε για ένα ακόμη Athens Python Meetup, στα γραφεία της Yodeck, στην Ομόνοια (Λυκούργου 2, 2ος όροφος). Θα μας μιλήσει ο **[Παναγιώτης Μουσταφέλλος](https://www.linkedin.com/in/pmoust/), Co-Founder & CTO στο [NOFire.ai](https://www.nofire.ai/)** με το θέμα της παρουσίασης να είναι: ***"Multi-agentic Patterns with LangGraph & How we Build Production Reliability*"** Όπως πάντα, στο τέλος της παρουσίασης, θα ακολουθήσει το καθιερωμένο networking! Τα λέμε εκεί, Άρτεμις

The topic for June is "Roadtrip" Speak Easy: true stories, told live. The idea is simple: an audience, an open microphone, and great stories. Hilarious, gripping, poignant- it's up to you. Audiences are invited to come to listen or come to tell as folks from all corners of Columbus offer their stories live on stage! Held at Wild Goose Creative's warm, intimate space, this night of tales occurs on the 3rd Thursday of every month. Doors open at 6:30 pm, show starts at 7:00 pm. Please arrive early if you want to tell, as we generally only have room for a limited number of tellers, and the sign-up sheet has a tendency to fill up fast. Formed around the idea that people need stories--they're what hold and draw us together--SpeakEasy celebrates the strangeness and commonness of being human. And in a world of smartphones, Facebook, Twitter, and more . . . it gives people a real, breathing, in-person way to connect. The night is geared for true stories of all kinds, taking the best tales told around kitchen tables, in darkened pubs, on the street corner, and at late-night parties and giving them an audience. Speak Easy is also a great outlet for performers, writers, and artists looking to share their favorite stories and perfect their skills. We strongly encourage tellers to please tell the story rather than read it so we keep within the spirit of good storytelling and stay engaged with the audience. All are welcome. Hang around after the show for a drink and build community!
