When the Word Becomes Co-Creation: Replacing the work, not the worker
Join us on June 15th for the 10th Trustworthy AI Community Meetup in Luxembourg, hosted by the **SnT research center** in collaboration with **Cloud Security Alliance (CSA) Luxembourg Chapter**.
In addition to guided networking at the end, the event will feature a session dedicate to **When the Word Becomes Co-Creation: Replacing the work, not the worker.**
We are at a turning point where artificial intelligence is moving from a passive tool we chat with into an active participant we delegate tasks to. Today, our language is no longer just communication - it is the direct catalyst for action.
But as these systems become capable of generating outcomes much faster than we can manually review them, we face a profoundly human challenge: how do we maintain trust and control? If we rely on these tools blindly, we risk letting the algorithms subtly steer our judgment, as they are naturally inclined to be compliant and simply mirror our own flawed assumptions back to us.
In this session, we will explore the human side of Trustworthy AI. We will discuss why the true promise of these systems lies in elevating human potential, how to cultivate a dynamic of genuine co-creation where the AI acts as a collaborative partner that challenges our assumptions, and the ways to confidently shift our trust from overseeing daily actions to orchestrating broader, more impactful outcomes.
Whether you are a manager, developer, creator, or an everyday consumer, join us to discover how to actively cooperate with AI today. We will discuss how to secure your position as the orchestrator of this technology, ensuring it empowers your decisions rather than overriding them.
Our guest speaker for this talk is [Dr. Evgeny Zotov](https://www.linkedin.com/in/ezotov/). Evgeny is an Applied AI Architect and automation enthusiast with extensive experience in artificial intelligence, machine learning, large language models, and data-driven systems.
He is currently a Research Associate at the Interdisciplinary Centre for Security, Reliability and Trust at the University of Luxembourg, where he works on research projects with government and industrial partners. His work focuses on designing and implementing AI solutions across sectors such as finance, manufacturing, and healthcare.
Before joining the University of Luxembourg, Evgeny worked as a Postdoctoral Researcher at the University of Sheffield, where he applied statistical modelling, prediction techniques, and machine learning to manufacturing process optimization, and contributed to healthcare technology through the development of JointCalc, a patient decision-support tool. Prior to his research career, he spent nearly a decade at Accenture, progressing from intern to team lead and leading data warehouse, mobile banking, and enterprise application projects for major banking clients, building strong expertise in application architecture, data systems, automation, and software delivery.
His perspective bridges advanced AI research and real-world business applications, making him a valuable voice on the evolving role of AI across industries.

Circle by AI & Coffee - In-Person Meetup in Luxembourg
⚡ **Circle** by **AI & Coffee — Luxembourg's In-Person AI Community**
AI is moving faster than any of us can keep up with alone. The best way to make sense of it — and stay ahead of it — is by getting in the same room as people who are just as obsessed with it as you are.
That is exactly what AI & Coffee is about.
We are bringing together Luxembourg's most curious, creative and driven minds for an afternoon of open, honest and energising conversations about artificial intelligence — not in theory, but in practice. No slides. No pitches. No pressure. Just real people, real ideas and real connections over great coffee. ☕🤖

Bertrange Autopedestre extended (13km)
Hello Friends!
This time, we're going to explore a forest I've seen many times from the balcony of a dear friend during his legendary house parties, and I've always wondered whether there's a good hiking trail.
Today I looked that place up, and indeed, there's one:
Bertrange Autopedestre. No idea whether it's a new AP or whether I just did not see it before, but let's check it out, hiking boots on the ground! 🥾🥾
I've added an experimental part, to get to an adequate distance.
After around 8km, there is a spot that looks suitable for our lunch break.
8km, Beatrice, not before!
**Meeting Point:**
We will meet near the bus stop "City Concorde", in Bertrange/Helfent, and we will start right after the bus arrives.
https://maps.app.goo.gl/Lug56zn6Ywy8zEYc9
**Public Transport:**
You can take Bus 6 from "Hamilius", leaving at 10:36, towards "Bertrange Gemeng".
**Carpool:**
If you can offer a seat or look for one, here's the link to the carpool:
https://groupcarpool.com/t/sy9f4d
There should be plenty of parking available on the City Concorde parking lot.
**Please note:**
It's tick season. Be careful, use some repellent product, and check yourself after the hike.
As usual, the hike is at your own risk, and please take enough water for yourself.
Looking forward to hiking with you!

I've reserved a table for 10 of us. As always the PayPal money is a deposit only, to guarantee your seat and fight against no-shows! When you arrive at the restaurant, I will reimburse this amount to you and we will all pay our own way at the end as normal. If you ghost us, we reserve the right to buy Korean fried chicken with your money! Thanks for understanding and let me know if PayPal is an issue :)

Smart Search + AI: An Outcome-Driven Journey from IDP to a Suite of AI
Over a billion documents processed. Millions of Veterans impacted. Hundreds of thousands of employee hours saved. Faster decisions. Greater accuracy. More benefits in the hands of our disabled Veterans.
We created Smart Search, the world’s largest consumer of Amazon Textract, right when GenAI began reshaping what’s possible. Since then, we’ve built a suite of AI‑driven solutions that transform this data into real, measurable outcomes—accelerating benefits decisions for our Nation’s Veterans.
Join us for a focused conversation on how an outcome‑driven approach to AI is helping us boost accuracy, streamline workflows, and deliver faster results for those who have served.
This is a follow up to the AWS re:Invent 2023 "Intelligent Document Processing with Gen AI for Public Sector" presentation.

COUNT monthly event: Kitchen service at Van Buren Center's shelter
Come assist Van Buren Shelter (https://ymcacolumbus.org/locations/vanburen) staff in serving dinners and cleaning up on the 3rd Tuesday of each month. Dinner for the women is 5-6 pm and for the families is 6:15-7:15 pm. There is ample free parking available in the shelter's lot. The recommended area to park is in green in the image above.
There will be a new entrance for the time being. We are asking all volunteers to enter through the Donation Dock door, the orange mark on the image above. This door is located between the Single Adults and Family Shelter. You will see 2 large garage doors with a large green trash compactor in the center. Please head to the closest garage door to the building wall, with a ramp leading up. There, you will see a door with a sign stating instructions on how to enter the building. Please ring the doorbell, and a staff member will come and escort you into the building. If a staff member takes longer than 5 minutes, please call the front desk at 614-689-2020. This is a new process for us, and we do not want to keep you waiting! We appreciate your patience as we navigate this temporary change.
The shelter needs a volunteer count the day before the event so sign-up ends Monday at 4:50 PM. Afterwards some of us go to the Omnipresent Atheists Weekly Meetup in progress to have a bit to eat or drink (http://www.meetup.com/omnipresentatheists/).
Volunteers must be 14 or older. Since we will be working around families, the YMCA does not permit volunteering by individuals with convictions for violent or sexual crimes. The YMCA reserves the right to run background checks on volunteers.
For questions, comment on this page or contact: Andrew, awhit12@yahoo.com, (614)937-5802 (cell). Please let Andrew know if you volunteer anytime other than our COUNT events so that he can count your hours toward our service record.

"Metal Slinger" by Rachel Schneider
Join us as we discuss our June pick: Metal Slinger by Rachel Schneider!
Book description:
Even though she's not one of them, Brynn has spent her life among the Alaha, training to be a guard and waiting for the chance to attend the annual market hosted by the Kenta–the very same people who exiled her adopted community to a life at sea. Going to the market is a rite of passage eagerly anticipated by all young guards, but Brynn does not anticipate breaking a century-long peace treaty while there. Nor does she plan for the intense encounter with an enemy soldier that now threatens to unwind the fragile coexistence between their people–and everything Brynn once believed about herself to be true.
Brynn's loyalty to the Alaha is tested when the truth of her identity is brought to light by this soldier who's taken an oath to bring her back to where she belongs. Narrowly escaping death on the violent high seas, Brynn's connection to the Alaha is further tested when she learns about the world of magic she's been denied. She was once certain of her fate and where she belonged, but the dark, knowing eyes of this stranger have her questioning everything, including her heart.
Packed with knife fights and seafaring adventure, METAL SLINGER is the smash-hit start to the romantic fantasy duology, the Fire & Metal series
