In May, we are reading [Eurotrash by Christian Kracht](www.goodreads.com/book/show/209567298-eurotrash). **Synopsis** Realising he and she are the very worst kind of people, our unnamed middle-aged narrator embarks on a highly dubious road trip through Switzerland with his terminally ill and terminally drunken mother. They try unsuccessfully to give away or squander the fortune she has amassed from investing in armament industry shares. Along the journey they bicker endlessly over the past, throw handfuls of francs into a ravine and exasperate the living daylights out of their long-suffering taxi driver. The crimes of the twentieth century are never far behind, but neither is the need for more vodka. *Eurotrash* is a bitterly comic, vertiginous mirror-cabinet of familial and historical reckoning. Kracht's novel is a narrative tour-de-force of the tenderness and spite meted out between two people who cannot escape one another.

✨We’re excited to invite you to a new Barrel AI 🐒🐒 event — this one is shaping up to be one of our most epic yet ✨ We’ll be given a presentation and speach by an eminent AI expert and ambassador, **Dr. Michael Green**, alongside our recurring **AI Release Radar**, where we highlight the latest AI/ML releases and news. As always, there will be great opportunities for networking — plus pizza and drinks. This event will also be hosted at our new home for future events: **Fyrtornet / Drivbänken**, right in the heart of Hyllie, Malmö. **📅AGENDA** 17:30 – 17:45 Arrival & initial networking 17:45 – 18:00 Welcome by Barrel AI organizers 18:00 – 18:20 AI Release Radar 18:20 – 19:00 Dr. Michael Green – Talk & Q&A 19:00 – 19:30 Pizza & networking **🚀 THE WARM-UP: AI RELEASE RADAR** Before the demo, we will kick things off with our AI Release Radar and scan the latest happenings in the AI community — LLM drops, AI/ML white papers, and the news that actually matters to AI Engineers & Developers. **🎓 SPEAKER INTRODUCTION** Dr. Michael Green builds AI systems designed to make decisions under uncertainty, using Bayesian machine learning and probabilistic AI—because real-world environments rarely provide perfect information. Models that fail to account for uncertainty often become fragile when deployed in complex settings. He is the founder of two Copenhagen-based AI companies applying these principles where decision-making truly matters: *Alviss AI* and *AI Alpha Lab.* Alviss AI is a marketing science platform that helps organizations optimize advertising, media investments, and growth through a combination of probabilistic modeling and modern machine learning. AI Alpha Lab is a research-driven initiative focused on financial markets and systematic investing, leveraging probabilistic AI and quantitative methods. Their AI-driven fund, trading on Nasdaq, has achieved performance surpassing many index funds. Michael is also a strong advocate for digital and AI sovereignty, with a focus on strengthening EU-driven AI ecosystems—a topic he will also touch upon. 🗣️**TALK DESCRIPTION** At the upcoming Barrel AI event, Michael will take a deep dive into the technical architecture behind his systems, exploring how uncertainty-first and physics-inspired neural networks are applied in high-stakes environments. Financial markets are unforgiving—there are no second chances, no re-runs with a different random seed. In his talk he will tell the story of building the model that now runs AI Alpha Lab’s fund, and the hard lessons learned along the way. It starts, as these things often do, with 36 million going up in smoke 🔥💸.

The CPH AI Hub warmly invites you to join our upcoming workshop on AI in defense and security. On Thursday, 28 May 2026, from 18:00–20:00, we will gather in Copenhagen to explore how artificial intelligence is transforming modern defense, security, and society. The discussion will cover both the technological applications of AI in military settings and the wider societal, ethical, and governance challenges that accompany these developments. Topics of Discussion • The EU and the broader political landscape • Applications of AI in military and defense contexts • Societal and ethical implications of military AI • Opportunities for collaboration with CPH AI Hub This is not intended to be a formal conference with set speakers, but rather an open-ended and informal discussion among people in Copenhagen who share an interest in these topics. Together, we will exchange perspectives, discuss current developments in AI and governance, examine the evolving political context within the EU, and explore opportunities for meaningful collaboration that can positively impact our communities, workplaces, and society more broadly. If you would like to make a presentation during the workshop, feel free to reach out beforehand. **Location** Studiestræde 24 1455 Copenhagen K Upon arrival, please enter the courtyard and turn right.

# 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.

**Hi everyone!** I’m David, and I’d love to start a social bouldering club for anyone who wants to climb, hang out, and meet new people! I will arrange a meetup climbing event every 2nd week or once a month, at different climbing gyms around the city. The focus is on: • Climbing and challenging ourselves • Being social and building a fun community • Training together – all levels welcome I’ve been climbing for about 1.5 years, so I’m still in my learning phase, but I’m more than happy to help beginners get started and share the basics with anyone who’s new. **We will climb at Blocs and Walls @ 14.00 o’clock.** If people want, we might go for a drink or a bit of food afterwards. There will be a short warm up, focusing on climbing and mobility. If you want to join in on that, otherwise drop in when ever.¨ This time, since it is at Blocs and Walls, I can help people doing robe climb. But we figure that out when we get there :D **What Is Bouldering?** Bouldering is a type of climbing done at low heights — usually up to around 4–5 meters — **without ropes or harnesses**. Instead, there are thick mats on the floor for safety. There is an entrance fee and renting of climbing shoes, which you can rent at the location, and so cloth where you can be flexible. Bouldering is very social — people often help each other, share tips, cheer each other on, and have fun together. It’s perfect for meeting new people while getting a good workout.

Escape the winter chill and immerse yourself in an evening of creativity, conversation, and coziness. Join us for a **Cocktails & Collage** a seasonal gathering that celebrates Danish *hygge* through drinks and imaginative art-making. Set in a contemporary art gallery turned into a creative studio for the night, you’ll begin with a delicious cocktail or a glass of wine and even alcohol-free option will be available. Once you test our cocktails you can settle into a candlelit workspace stocked with vintage magazines, colorful papers, fabrics, and other tactile treasures. A collage artist will guide the group through a meditative cut-and-paste flow where you’ll create a visual piece rooted in seasonal themes like winter coziness, Copenhagen memories, or dream landscapes. Whether you come with friends or on your own, this cozy and creative evening will leave you inspired, relaxed, and ready for winter. The bar will keep open for those who want to explore more of our cocktail menu Note: The event is free but does not include the drinks

If no one brings anything, there will be nothing. **Code of Conduct**: Though mostly understood, it’s still worth mentioning. We don’t have rules per se, but we highly discourage the following topics of discussion because they are likely to incite anti-social responses - Sex, Politics, Religion. Please don’t mistake this as an attempt to limit your free speech rights but rather a guide to a place and time for appropriate discussions.

Join us as we get together to see Paul Rudd in the latest comedy-drama-musical from John Carney, POWER BALLAD! The film follows a washed-up wedding singer, a fading boy band singer and a stolen hit song. Here’s a description, trailer and plan for this event: DESCRIPTION: Rick, a washed-up wedding singer, and Danny, a fading boy band star, bond over music and a late-night jam session. When Danny turns Rick's song into a hit, Rick sets out to reclaim the recognition he believes he deserves. Power Ballad is written/directed by John Carney, the master of the modern musical and creative mind behind Once, Begin Again and Sing Street! It stars Paul Rudd, Nick Jonas, Peter McDonald, Marcella Plunkett, Havana Rose Liu and Jack Reynor. BUZZ & ACCLAIM: The film premiered to rave reviews at this year’s Dublin International Film Festival where critics call it “a sure-fired crowd-pleaser” that “just might be the feel-good hit of the year!” Others say, “Paul Rudd delivers a career-best performance in this charmer” that’s both “hilarious and deeply moving." The film continues John Carney’s “long run of success with yet another charmer” and “a sharp, hopeful crowd-pleaser that strikes the right notes!” SUMMER OF ICE CREAM, VOL 2: SHAKE NO. 8!
