We cordially invite you to our upcoming gropu exhibition titled "Dear AI… Something Strange Happened To Me Today". This participatory exhibition investigating pseudo-intimacy with AI and the externalisation of vulnerability, trust, and emotional reflection into technological systems, in a context of diminishing human relational presence. Big cities like Berlin act as catalysts for loneliness. In the post-AI era, technology begins to substitute intimate relationships, with AI taking on the role of friends and partners. As a result, real, face-to-face human connection becomes a conscious and meaningful choice — one that requires effort and genuine vulnerability. Sharing something deeply personal, intimate, strange, or simply “too much” with another person is increasingly tied to risk — the possibility of rejection, ridicule, or having one’s most sensitive areas exposed, without any assurance that such openness will be met with care. AI, by contrast, seems to offer that guarantee — creating an illusion of closeness that does not require true exposure, reinforcing a growing dependence on AI not just as a tool, but within the realm of human relationships. In dialogue with AI, we can drop all filters and conventions, without concern for how the receiving side might feel. **But what happens when this raw stream of consciousness is seen by real people?** The project invited participants to anonymously submit personal diary entries originally addressed to AI: deeply personal questions, confessions, doubts, moments of crisis or reflection they have not felt ready to share with another person. All submissions are anonymous and treated as fragile material. Seven selected artists reimagined a curated selection of these diary entries through visual works, given complete creative freedom. Each of the artists reinterpreted the themes and anonymous materials through their own medium and manner, approaching them from their individual perspective, and they also came together to create one collective work, inviting us to reflect and search for our own answers to a set of questions: What is it, exactly, that stands behind the desire to receive AI feedback on how we are perceived by others? Is it possible to learn how to relate to other people through a kind of “training” dialogue with AI? Does engaging in conversation with AI help us come to know ourselves more deeply, or does it, on the contrary, lead us away from our own individuality? And most importantly: which functions, in the fabric of our everyday lives, can AI genuinely take on? Join us and explore these questions and the artists' interpretations on April 16, 6-10 p.m.!

**Rust Berlin on location 🏳️‍🌈** is a new, informal in-person Rust meetup group in Berlin. We are a interactive meetup format interested in mob coding, deep diving and problem solving together. We build toy projects, share experiences, discuss technology and learn new cool stuff. And you are welcome to join! No matter if you are writing Rust production code every day, if you already contribute to Open Source projects or want to start doing so, if you use Rust in hobby projects or if you are just curious what the hype and buzz is all about, you are very welcome! To coordinate and plan activities, please join our **[Rust Berlin on location 🏳️‍🌈](https://rust-berlin.zulipchat.com/join/gap4pdbz7xsquliiz7tgcyuk/)**[ Zulip chat](https://rust-berlin.zulipchat.com/join/gap4pdbz7xsquliiz7tgcyuk/)! **Planned programme** Being an informal meetup, we are open to anything between just meet and talk, explore nerd snipes and rabbit holes, mob code together, plan and build fun projects, tinker with electronics, and presentations with Q&A. With the [introduction](https://berline.rs/2026/04/01/berlin-talks.html) of the new [Rust Berlin Talks](https://berline.rs/about#rust-berlin-talks) meetup series, **[Rust Berlin on location 🏳️‍🌈](https://berline.rs/about#rust-berlin-on-location)** strengthens its focus on social community experience, the exchange of knowledge, ideas and perspectives, and the joy of spontaneity. This time, we have the following topics lined up: * Tobias has been working on a ***project wizard*** and would like to receive some feedback from the group. * Crop is going to introduce the topic of ***atomics***, then hold a discussion space for answering questions and sharing experiences. * Raf finally would like to introduce ***test-driven development*** with a small mob coding exercise. If someone brings other cool stuff, questions or problems, then let us dedicate the second half of the meetup time to that! Anyone is invited to bring their projects and questions, show something, ask something, or explore a topic together. The best conversations and deepest rabbit holes can emerge out of seemingly nowhere. **Projected upcoming meetups** We schedule regular meetups on Thursday evening every four weeks, using the slot between the Berlin Rust Hack and Learn online meetup (every two weeks), and the Rust Nuremberg online meetup (every four weeks). 16 April 2026 is our thirteenth meeting. Our next projected meetings are going to occur on the following dates: * 14 May 2026 (tentative, public holiday) * 11 Jun 2026 * 9 Jul 2026 * 6 Aug 2026 * 3 Sep 2026 * 1 Oct 2026 **Location** Our meetup location is the new shared office community space of Ferrous Systems, Slint and KDAB in Berlin Mitte, for up to 25 people. We are expecting to use this space as our default location for the time being, with the IN-Berlin e.V. community space in Moabit as backup. Regardless, as our group might eventually outgrow the locations' size limit, we are low-key looking for bigger locations. If you know a fitting location, then please let us know in our Signal group! Another workable way might be to split the meetup into smaller, interest-specific sub-groups instead. As the no-show rate on Meetup.com is rather high, consider showing up even if you are on the waiting list. We can't promise that there is any space left, but usually there is. So give it a shot! **Accessibility** The location has an elevator and a wheelchair accessible bathroom. Please note that the bathroom is two floors down from the meetup space. On our quest for a bigger location, we are going to pay special attention to accessibility. **Community** We aim to create a safe place for everyone and adhere to the [Berlin Code of Conduct](https://berlincodeofconduct.org/). Inclusivity is very important to us. If you are curious about Rust, but unsure if you are welcome to join: Yes, yes you are. Please come to the meetup! If you have special needs, please get in contact, we will try to accommodate you as best we can. We are part of [https://berline.rs/](https://berline.rs/) and like to hang out in the **[Rust Berlin on location 🏳️‍🌈](https://rust-berlin.zulipchat.com/join/gap4pdbz7xsquliiz7tgcyuk/)**[ Zulip chat](https://rust-berlin.zulipchat.com/join/gap4pdbz7xsquliiz7tgcyuk/).

In our last sprint, we set up a shared baseline repository featuring a functional "Welcome Agent." We successfully used local shell scripts to build the Docker image, deploy it to GCP, and query the live endpoint. It's a solid foundation, but manually executing deployment scripts from a local machine is a bottleneck for rapid, collaborative development. **The Plan:** This session is about automating our existing cloud deployment. We will take the exact build and deploy steps we currently run locally and translate them into a GitHub Actions workflow. Once our agents are updating automatically on every push to `main`, we will shift focus back to agent behavior. We will build a simple Orchestrator Agent that uses the A2A protocol to dynamically delegate tasks to our cloud-hosted workers. **This is a "Lab" session. We will:** * **Automate the Pipeline:** Convert our local Docker and `gcloud` deployment scripts into a seamless GitHub Action workflow. * **Build the Orchestrator:** Develop a lightweight central agent designed to interpret a user prompt and route sub-tasks to our deployed workers. * **Live Multi-Agent Communication:** Establish an active dialogue over the A2A protocol between your Orchestrator and your worker agents. **The Format:** We run our sessions like an anthology series: **Every meetup is a standalone sprint.** While we often build on previous results, each session provides a complete experience and remains fully accessible to first-time attendees. This is a high-density micro-meetup limited to 6 seats. *(Newcomers: We will provide the fully prepped template repository so you can jump straight into the automation phase!)* **What you'll build** By the end of the session, you'll have: 1. **A Repeatable CI/CD Pipeline:** A set-and-forget GitHub Action that handles the GCP deployment automatically on every commit, replacing the need for local scripts. 2. **An Orchestrator Agent:** A coordinator capable of breaking down requests and utilizing external agent tools via A2A. 3. **A Live Multi-Agent Setup:** A functioning environment where your Orchestrator successfully communicates with and aggregates results from your automated cloud workers. **Schedule (Saturday, 10:00 - 13:00 CEST)** * **10:00:** Quick round of introductions. * **10:15:** Intro session: Migrating local scripts to GitHub Actions & Orchestrator routing patterns. * **10:30:** Build time: CI/CD automation & building the Orchestrator. * **12:00:** Live demos + technical teardown. * **12:45:** Wrap-up + takeaways. **Prerequisites** * **Accounts:** A Google Account (with GCP access\*) and a GitHub Account (for Actions). * **Laptop with dev setup:** Docker and Git installed and working. * **Access to an LLM API:** (Gemini, Claude, OpenAI, etc.). * **Mindset:** This is a lab for engineers, not a tutorial. We learn by building, breaking, and iterating. **Logistics** * **Location:** We meet at my office in the **Grunewald area** near Martin-Luther-Krankenhaus. The exact address will be shared privately with attendees to maintain privacy. * **Capacity:** Limited to 6 seats. \* You currently get $300 in free credits when you sign up with GCP, which is plenty for what we're trying to do. We can give some initial pointers for how to get started during the meeting, but won't have time to do a full GCP setup with you.
