Svět AI se hýbe rychleji, než stíháme psát dokumentaci. Každý týden přijde nový „killer model“ a vývojáři přebíhají od jednoho toolu k druhému. Výsledkem často není vyšší produktivita, ale: * workflow se rozpadá při každé změně modelu * roste bezpečnostní a procesní riziko * know-how zůstává v jednotlivcích místo v týmu A právě tady vzniká prostor pro náskok. V Unnits jsme postavili CODAGa jako střechu nad vaší AI. Je mu jedno, jestli zrovna vede Claude, GPT-4 nebo Llama. Vy držíte proces, kontext a know-how. Modely jen dodávají výkon. **Proč dorazit na Evennt #31:** * **Jednotný mozek týmu:** Jak zajistit, aby junior i senior pracovali se stejným kontextem a know-how nezůstávalo jen v hlavách jednotlivců. * **Pitva orchestrátoru:** Dan Charousek ukáže, proč je vlastní kontext a orchestrace důležitější než model, který zrovna vyhrává benchmarky. * **Konec rozpadu workflow:** Jak měnit modely podle ceny, výkonu nebo use-casu bez přepisování procesů a dokumentace. * **Know-how jako majetek firmy:** Jak uchovat kontext, rozhodnutí a znalost vašeho prostředí mimo konkrétní model nebo tool. **🗓️ Kdy:** Úterý 2. 6. 2026 od 18:00 📍 **Kde:** Unnits - Drtinova 8, Praha 5 Evennt #31 není o naleštěných prezentacích. Je to o živém demu (které se možná rozbije), o otevřené debatě s Danem Charouskem a o hledání cesty, jak z AI udělat předvídatelný proces, který firmě přináší stabilitu, kontrolu a konkurenční výhodu.

We will discuss two very short stories by Anton Chekhov: [The Student](https://www.ibiblio.org/eldritch/ac/student.html) and [Gooseberries](https://americanliterature.com/author/anton-chekhov/short-story/gooseberries). The first was apparently Chekhov's own favorite story of his, and is a reflection on the continuity of human suffering and joy across the ages, and asks in what way the past stays with us. The second is part of a trilogy and revolves around questions of how happy we can be when that happiness is based upon self-satisfaction. Together, the stories will help us discuss broader questions of happiness in our lives and how it can be achieved. We will meet at L'Objet Trouvé near the Veletržní Palác. I look forward to seeing you there! If you want to help support these literary reading events, you can make a donation of any amount here: https://pay.sumup.com/b2c/QIBGIY6Y

## 🤝 Host Information A co-hosted event by ProductTank Columbus & Women in Product Columbus 💡 About the Workshop AI adoption is stalling across organizations — not because of a lack of motivation or tools, but because it's fundamentally a behavior design challenge. This hands-on workshop applies proven Behavior Design models and methods to help you move from a vague organizational wish to boost AI adoption to 3-5 concrete, testable interventions you can act on starting tomorrow. Whether you're a product manager, on a product team, or just someone trying to get AI to actually stick at work, you'll leave with a clear picture of what's worth focusing on, what to ignore, and how to drive real, sustained adoption — no guesswork required. 🛠️ What to Bring Laptop: Fully charged and ready to go. AI Assistant: Have your favorite AI assistant pulled up. (Dom will be using Claude, but feel free to use whichever assistant you prefer!) 🍕 Logistics & Perks Food & Drink: Pizza and drinks provided! Parking: Plenty of free spaces available on-site. ###

This is a free, in person meeting. Burdened by a stressful relationship? Unhealthy relationships can trigger feelings of anger, despair or self-doubt. They can create dwindling spirals of fights and seeking to make-up, or trying to “pin the blame” on someone or something. If you don’t find the RIGHT reasons, or select the correct sources of the problem, the problem can just get worse and worse. Whether in love or personal ties, with friends or at work, our life really IS affected by the quality of our relationships. Good ones can promote pleasure and survival while less optimum ones can lead to annoyance, anger, self-doubt, stress, or even affect our health and ability to survive well. Whether you are suffering from a divorce, or a painful break-up, don’t know who to trust (or who to CHOOSE) as a partner, friend, boss or employee - the anxiety of relationship troubles can really make a mess of things. Maybe you’ve suffered a betrayal, or are dealing with hostility or criticalness or invalidation. Dwindling relationships can involve destructive behavior, where we hurt those we love, or start succumbing to self-destructive thoughts, attitudes or behaviors that spiral out of control and affect much more than our immediate relationship. Past losses in love or life can affect how we act or react to new people and situations and hold us back from even starting to create new, possibly great relationships! How can one get back onto a saner course of action? Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life: human relationships! Break free from self imposed limitations Here we will discuss: • How to “erase” the trauma of past hurts and betrayals so that one isn’t always repeating past mistakes. • Why and how do the negative emotions of others affect you? • Why is my partner withdrawing and what can I do about it? • Why do we sometimes feel compelled to hurt the ones we love? • Fights & arguments - what's really behind them? • What underlies “corrosive criticism” or the need to invalidate self or others? • How one can stably change one’s outlook on life so they can affect positive change? • Where do compulsive destructive behaviors come from and what can be done about them? • How to form closer bonds & keep growing the relationships with the people you care about? • How to enhance one’s own ability to survive and create positive healthy relationships whether in love, family & friendships or in work, business or one’s career? Relationships can be hard and life itself IS challenging. Why not arm yourself with the knowledge and breakthroughs that have been made about the mind, mental reactions & interpersonal relationships, so that one has better awareness and control over themselves and life in general. Learn where painful experiences are “stored” and how they can unknowingly affect us. You will also find out how one can “erase” those past painful experiences so that one is free to move forward without being tripped up by the past. Learn too, about what can lead some people to become “toxic” personalities and how to identify those traits in others so you won’t be tripped up trusting the wrong person. Our free Meet-ups occur in a safe environment where one can learn, without fear of judgment or criticism, and without the recommendation of harmful mental techniques or therapies, just how YOU can get yourself onto a happier & more successful path: in love & in life. We look forward to having you join us! This class is sponsored by the Dianetics & Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.
