**⚠️ IMPORTANT: REGISTRATION MANDATORY ⚠️** Registration on **Luma** is **REQUIRED** to attend this event. **Link: https://luma.com/1sre8dy7?utm_source=meetup** Your registration is subject to host approval. You must complete the registration process on lu.ma to receive the full event location details and confirmation of your attendance. **Please note: Without approved registration on Luma, you will NOT be able to access the event location or attend.** We are excited to host a **BLISS x dida workshop** featuring **Lazar Obradović (Lead Data Scientist @ cognee.ai)**, who will guide us through an interactive session on Agentic AI. ​Title: Explainable Scientific Discovery with AI Memory: Hypothesis Generation and Validation with Cognee and Bayer 📅 Date: 27.05.2026 🕕 Time: 18:00 📍 Location: TU Berlin Marchstrasse 23 [Room 0.011] ​The session will last around 2 hours, followed by a networking session with dida and fellow AI enthusiasts (and free pizza!🍕). Bring your laptop! **​Abstract: Building "AI scientist"** systems that can reliably generate and evaluate research ideas remains effectively an open problem. While LLMs make hypothesis generation cheap, current systems still struggle to connect evidence across papers, domains, and mechanisms in a structured and reusable way. Evaluation is equally difficult, often relying on opaque “LLM-as-a-judge” methods that are hard to interpret or reproduce. We use Cognee to ingest scientific literature and construct a graph-based representation of papers, claims, and entities with associated vector embeddings. We then use this structure to select and organize the context used for hypothesis generation. Candidate hypotheses are evaluated using explicit graph- and vector-based metrics grounded in the underlying corpus. Initial evaluations by Bayer across targeted biomedical domains demonstrated that graph-based AI memory can reliably support scientific hypothesis generation and validation. **⚡ FINAL REMINDER ⚡** **You MUST register and be approved on Luma to attend. The event location will only be visible after your registration is confirmed by the host.

🕢 Doors open at 18:30 and sessions start at 19:00. Freestyle vocal workout at and play session. €8-20 😌 Flow is a state of being… an experience when you allow yourself to be 100% fully engaged in the present moment in a feedback loop between clarity and satisfaction. It is an undeniable sensation where things seem to be more effortless, pleasurable, in sync, and you can easily sense a connection with something greater than yourself; this is what we will create…: • a connected and mindful meditation where it is possible to blissfully surf the cutting edge of the present moment together… • a game where it’s possible to feel excited and calm in the same moment, and everyone can win as much as they like… Scott Bolden, founder of Das Baumhaus Berlin will share some very easy, practical and effective methods developed during the last 12 years of facilitating the “Improvisational Groove Orchestra” (I.G.O.) improv vocal jam sessions. Within 20 minutes participants learn to use the common sound space to create resonance in the form of improvisational music where it is quite common to experience some real flow moments… It is very easy to participate, no musical talent or training is required so anyone is welcome to join. All of the session is done with eyes closed to avoid visual distractions and keep focus on the co-created sound space. During these sessions we will also have short breaks for feedback and refreshment. Important – Please be on time. It is very important to understand the methodology and warm up in the group before joining in! 🎤 @21:00 - Freestyle vocal workshop and practice session. €8-15 Have you ever wanted to learn how to do freestyle vocalizations? Maybe you are on your way and would like to just have a fun workout session with other vocal freestyle enthusiasts. All levels welcome.

Register: https://www.eventbrite.de/e/build-smarter-ai-graphrag-generative-ai-workshop-tickets-1985345958205 Join us for a hands-on introduction to Generative AI with Neo4j at 42 Berlin. **Large language models are powerful — but without structure, they lose context fast.** **As part of the mAI ist für AI series at 42 Berlin, this workshop explores how [Neo4j](https://neo4j.com/ "https://neo4j.com/") can improve GenAI applications and reduce common challenges such as hallucinations.** In this instructor-led workshop, participants will explore how graph databases can improve GenAI applications and reduce common challenges such as hallucinations. You’ll learn key concepts including Large Language Models (LLMs), Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), GraphRAG, vector search, knowledge graphs, and AI agents. The workshop follows a **mixed format, combining short theoretical inputs with practical exercises**. Participants will work through tasks while instructors are available to support and answer questions.

📅 May 28 \| 🕛 7:00 PM \| 💻 Berlin Mitte Let’s meet at @Pizzeria Marienkäfer and exchange ideas and hacks in a cozy evening about stress management and mental performance. We are happy to share the insights from your focus groups. To open the evening, our guests Matthi and Dascha will share a short input on Stress Relief through Breathing and Couple Bonding: simple, science-backed techniques to move from overload into focus, on your own or with your partner. They’ve been practicing daily breath rituals together for years, and they’re the builders behind TwoBreath, a free couples breathwork app launching this summer. You’ll get to try one of their routines on the spot. This meetup will be hosted in english, since many of you asked for it. Lets talk about - these moments... When wou’re technically ready — but your mind feels overloaded. You want to work with focus — but your energy is scattered. You know exactly what needs to be done — but you just can’t get into flow. And this is exactly where performance is decided. Because mental performance is not a coincidence. It’s either developed consciously — or left unused. Many people try to solve this with more discipline. But real mental performance works differently: through clarity, a conscious way of handling pressure, and the right everyday strategies. In this focus group, you’ll find exactly that: * honest exchange on eye level * practical impulses for more focus & energy * new perspectives on sustainable performance ### Agenda * Open discussions, Dinner & Networking We’re looking forward to seeing you! 📅 May 28 \| 🕛 7:00 PM \| 💻 Pizzeria Marienkäfer \(Berlin Mitte\)
