**Join Us for an Exciting Israel LLVM Meetup at QM!** We are thrilled to invite you to a special visit to the **Quantum Machines** offices, where we’ll dive deep into the latest compiler technologies and development tools. This meetup brings together the Israel LLVM community for a night of insightful technical talks, tour in QM labs, networking, and discussions on the future of compilation—from classical optimizations to the cutting edge of quantum computing. Whether you are a hardware architect, a compiler developer, or a performance engineer, this event is a great opportunity to explore diverse topics covering **MLIR, Quantum Compilation, and Hardware-Driven Optimization.** *** **📅 Date & Time: June 10th, 2026** * **17:30** – Arrival & Networking * **18:00** – Technical Talks Begin * **19:00** – Tour in QM Labs * **19:30** – Wrap-up & Further Networking 📍 **Venue:** [QM Offices](https://maps.google.com) (Quantum Machines) *** **🎙️ Speakers & Topics** **Yotam Ishay – Senior Compiler Engineer, QM** **Title:** *"Quantum Compilation in MLIR"* **Abstract:** In this talk, Yotam will demonstrate how hybrid quantum-classical control is modeled within QM’s compiler stack. From the **QUA** language to the **Pulse Processing Unit (PPU)**, we will examine the unique requirements of the fast-growing quantum computing field and how MLIR is utilized to address these challenges. **Alexey Kreshchuk – Senior Compiler Engineer, Mobileye** **Title:** *"Supercharging Compiler Optimization Remarks with Hardware Metrics"* **Abstract:** Alexey will showcase how **Compiler Explorer** can be extended to help developers optimize their code more effectively. The session will focus on how to run your own compilers while utilizing the **Opt Pipeline Viewer** and hardware metrics to gain deeper insights into optimization remarks.

**AI OR DIE** **Product Design Meetup @Torq** 📅 June 10, 2026 📍 Torq Offices - 10th Floor (HaMelacha St 3, Tel Aviv-Yafo) 🌐 [https://torq.io/](https://torq.io/) We’re very excited to invite you to our meetup on June 10 at the Torq offices. Of course we’ll talk about AI - but the real focus is on you: how product designers continue to lead in the age of AI. We’ll talk about how to create agents that work like teammates and help us move faster, without compromising on quality, depth, or craft. We’ll share real examples of scalable ways of working with AI, and practical tools we’ve built and integrated into our day-to-day design process. And of course, we’ll dive into user experience in the age of AI: how intentional friction creates better outcomes as AI experiences become more seamless and invisible, how overconfidence in AI outputs changes user behavior, and how design interventions help users make better decisions. 20–30 minutes per talk. Practical, short, no fluff. **Agenda:** **18:00 - Mingling** Beers & Pizza 🍕 **18:30 - Opening** Torq intro **18:55 - Session #1** **Moishy Neulander (Torq)** Turning AI prototypes into reusable design assets: Changing the way product teams collaborate, prototype, and build with AI. **19:15 - Session #2** **Hanni Buskila (UXTRA)** How agents became my research team: How AI agents can turn research into real design foundations - from research insights to final UI - and what separates real force multipliers from hype. **19:35 - Break ️☕️** **19:50 - Session #3** **Noa Sabar Dvoskin (Ex-Amazon)** Friction by design: What happens when systems optimize without understanding user intent, and how intentional friction gives users back control at the moments that count. **20:10 - Session #4** **Adi Livne ([monday.com](http://monday.com))** Designing for AI: Practical design principles for building clear, useful, and responsible AI experiences. **20:30 - Q&A + Closing** Come for the AI, stay for the people ✨ **Important:** RSVP does not guarantee entry. Due to limited office capacity, attendance is curated and subject to organizer approval. Approved attendees will receive a confirmation message before the event. Please make sure your Meetup profile includes your full name, role, and company.

**Join Us for PyData Meetup @ Melio!** Get ready for insightful sessions, networking with the PyData community, and, of course, pizza and beer! A big thanks to **Melio** for hosting us and supporting the community. **📅 Details** Date: Sunday, June 14th, 2026 Time: 18:00 - 21:00 Location: Melio Office, Hagag Towers, North Tower, Floor 32, HaArba’a St 28, Tel Aviv Language: This meetup will be held in Hebrew **🕒 Agenda** 18:00: Gathering, snacks, and drinks 🍕🍻 18:30: Welcome words 18:45: **A Match Made in Heaven: LLM Judgment at Vector-Search Speed,** Shon Mendelson, Staff AI Scientist @ Intuit 19:15: **Dr. Data: How We Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the AI Bomb**, Dr. Adi Sarid, CEO @ Sarid Research 19:45: **Cost-Efficient AI Systems in Practice,** Michael Levinger, Senior AI Engineer @ Melio **🎤 Featured Sessions** **A Match Made in Heaven: LLM Judgment at Vector-Search Speed** **Speaker: Shon Mendelson, Staff AI Scientist @ Intuit** Last year, I spent far too long chasing a stubborn data quirk: why our system couldn't see that “The Law Offices of John Miller” and “Miller, John S. PLLC” were the same entity. It led to a bigger question: can you achieve LLM-level judgment at vector-search speeds? Traditional vector search is fast, but often misses subtle context like this, while relying entirely on LLMs is too slow and costly for production at scale. In this talk, I’ll share how we bridged that gap at Intuit with a hybrid system that combines fast vector search, efficient small transformer-based models, and fine-tuned SLMs. The result is a system capable of handling millions of weekly entity comparisons, significantly boosting recall while maintaining precision levels comparable to traditional methods. **Dr. Data: How We Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the AI Bomb** **Speaker: Dr. Adi Sarid, CEO @ Sarid Research** When GenAI dropped, our quant market research agency had a beautifully naive thought: "We can finally replace all our human labelers with a simple API call!" Spoiler alert: Scaling AI without hallucinations isn't quite that simple. Join us for a brutally honest, technical look at our data science team's journey from prompt-panic to AI-powered productivity. We’ll share our biggest wins and hardest lessons regarding evaluation frameworks, the rapid obsolescence of custom packages, and the newfound "full-stack audacity" of modern data scientists. **Cost-Efficient AI Systems in Practice** **Speaker: Michael Levinger, Senior AI Engineer @ Melio** Deploying large language models and AI agents in real-world systems requires a constant trade-off between cost, latency, and performance. This talk explores how to optimize LLM- and agent-based systems using techniques such as caching, model routing/cascades, tuning, RAG, and distillation—significantly reducing costs without sacrificing quality. Through a case study of an ATO-agent system, we’ll also cover practical approaches to cost estimation, monitoring, and budgeting. In addition, we’ll compare leading industry models—such as Gemini, Claude, and GPT—focusing on differences in response speed, cost efficiency, and real-world performance, and how to choose the right model for each use case within broader agentic workflows. **🚀 RSVP** Space is limited – RSVP now to secure your spot! We look forward to seeing you there! **📍 How to find us:** Enter the North Tower in Hagag Towers (Ha'Arbaa 28), go up to floor 32, and find us there. **We highly recommend using public transport, but if you’re coming by car, [here is a list of nearby parking lots](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/15GIvUZWui78k4b0EyikjvzNMnDede4lY/edit?gid=751370004#gid=751370004).**

Based on the novel Roadside Picnic, it is NO picnic, but rather one of the masterpieces of world cinema. Andrei Tarkovsky's 1979 Soviet sci-fi classic, recounts the expedition of a writer and professor led by a mysterious guide called "The Stalker." to a futuristic wasteland called "The Zone." Dripping with existential dread, it continually presents strange occurrences that will have us debating the meaning of what we've just viewed right through the ending. *Stalker* (1979) can be streamed for free on HBOMax, the Criterion Channel or Kanopy. It's also available for rent on Amazon Prime and AppleTV. The Columbus Library has two copies on disc.

If you are interested in selecting investment choices for your 401(k) or other workplace savings plan, minimizing your income tax liability, or identifying the most effective investments for your brokerage account, we are the group for you.
