#39 Prague: 5 Levels of AI Adoption. Which One Are You On? Prove it.
We give you a full **explanation of the KPI Framework.**
> Do You **Measure** the Most Valuable KPIs? Red/Amber/Green Thresholds for Each of Your Levels Explained.
## Situation
You burn $$$ on AI tokens. You run hackatons. Git repo full of AI pilots.
You're spending more on AI than last year.
Yet, you can't shake the feeling that you're paying faster than you're shipping.
> 📣 We give you the manual to pick the top KPIs that demonstrate the value, based on the context of how far you are in AI adoption.
3 CTOs share where they actually are on the AI adoption ladder, what worked, what they'd undo, and what comes next.
✅ The 3 KPIs you should actually be tracking at each level. And the ones to stop tracking.
The 5 levels of AI adoption, mapped from engineering orgs.
**1️⃣ L1: Nothing in production.** How to leave it without burning two quarters on pilots.
**2️⃣ L2: Talent:** upskilling, reskilling and firing.
**3️⃣ L3: Proof:** When the cost curve overtakes the delivery curve, and how to calculate AI efficiency proof?
**4️⃣ L4: Going AI-native:** What concretely changes when AI moves from IDEs into production.
**5️⃣ L5: You've won** the AI race. Where's the new edge in 2027?
Bring your situation. By the end you'll know which level you're on, what is your KPI, what your next move is, and what to stop doing this quarter.
No hype, no AI gospel. Two practitioners, real experience, with answers.
***
20-minute lightning talks + Q&A followed by legendary networking!
***

## What makes our meetups different:
* **Action-oriented:** Every talk includes takeaway guides/frameworks you can photograph or access via QR code
* **Case study focused:** Real implementations, real results, real failures
* **Interactive:** Audience Q&A with people who've actually done this
* **Practical:** Skip the vendor pitches—hear from practitioners

AKCE JEN PRO ZVANÉ
🤖 Ahoj, v rámci setkávání Research Tuesday jsme naplánovaly Friday special. Cítíme už nějakou dobu, že naše researchová komunita má potřebu sdílet, co nového nám do práce přinesla umělá inteligence, jak nám mění výzkum pod rukama. Chceme si povídat, chceme si navzájem sdílet, chceme vytvořit mapu, kam si zaneseme, v jakých fázích výzkumu a jakým způsobem používáme AI a co nám funguje dobře a co až tolik ne.
Pracovat a sdílet se bude převážně v menších skupinkách a výstup se na konci odprezentuje ostatním. Mapu pak pravděpodobně dáme k dispozici komunitě.
Pátek 19. června 9 - 12 do Slevomatu v pražském Karlíně. Setkání se koná pouze offline, a kapacita je omezená na 30 pozvaných.
Žádná velká příprava netřeba, jen teď dávej víc pozor, kdy a jak v rámci výzkumného workflow používáš AI a jak ti to funguje, ať se o to můžeš podělit s ostatními.
**🕒 Agenda:**
* **08:30 AM** – Otevření dveří & ranní networking

Queer Men Connect: Going Deeper
Do you ever feel like being gay or queer has seemingly been reduced to hook-up apps, partying and superficiality? Does spending time at gay clubs, bars and saunas leave you feeling unfulfilled or even empty? Does your inner voice tell you that there must be a more meaningful way to connect with your queer brothers?
Well, there is, now.
𝙌𝙪𝙚𝙚𝙧 𝙈𝙚𝙣 𝘾𝙤𝙣𝙣𝙚𝙘𝙩: 𝙂𝙤𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝘿𝙚𝙚𝙥𝙚𝙧 is an event for men seeking to connect and build community through yoga, mindfulness, and deep & honest conversations.
A phone-free, alcohol & substance-free space where you can be your authentic self, connect with like-minded men and learn tools for rebalancing your body, mind & spirit.
𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙨𝙩 𝙤𝙣𝙚….
We invite you to a Two-hour evening of:
✨𝙔𝙤𝙜𝙖
✨𝙃𝙚𝙖𝙧𝙩 𝘾𝙞𝙧𝙘𝙡𝙚
✨𝙈𝙞𝙣𝙙𝙛𝙪𝙡𝙡𝙣𝙚𝙨𝙨
✨𝘿𝙚𝙚𝙥 𝘾𝙤𝙣𝙫𝙚𝙧𝙨𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣𝙨
How did we arrive here? The idea was born from a simple conversation between two strangers. Two Czech guys, Martin & Pavel, who tried to find a similar space in the Czech Republic after returning from overseas.
After experiencing gay retreats focused on yoga, meditation, tantric practice, Reiki, sweat lodges, and embodiment work in Spain, Belgium, Australia, and New Zealand, it was time for the Czech Republic to shine.
About your hosts:
Martin is a Yoga Alliance-Certified Yoga Teacher with 200-hour training received in Belgium. He is passionate about yoga, mindfulness, and his vision is to create a healthy gay community and help reverse the ‘gay men loneliness’ epidemic. Martin pioneers DEI initiatives as Partnership Manager in his corporate role.
“The inspiration came from communities I experienced during a retreat in Spain and while living in Belgium, where I saw how powerful it can be to have spaces centred around openness, authenticity, connection, and well-being. I also know similar communities exist in cities like Berlin, and I would love to help create something like that here in Prague.”
Pavel has been an avid meditator for years, with experience in mindfulness, tantric meditation, Reiki, and shamanic ceremonies from his life in New Zealand and Australia.
Living more consciously, connected with universal energy, while honouring the elements, the ancestors, and Pacha Mama, has been instrumental in Pavel’s growth. He continued his learning by completing Level 1 & Level 2 Reiki training earlier this year. The call to return home was answered, and now it’s time to open a space for queer men in the Czech Republic.
“I received my first ‘activation’ from a Meditation Master in Vietnam in 2007, but corporate life & chasing ‘status’ got in the way. I returned to regular practice in 2021, and slowly incorporated different practices into my daily life. I credit conscious living to healing my traumas and to the success of my ongoing sobriety.”
WHEN: 18 June at 8pm
WHERE: Zen Den Yoga, Vinohrady, Prague
320 CZK / person
Secure your spot by filling out this form: https://forms.gle/SwNW4pwHB4HLhApy6
Our first event is limited to 15 men only.
No prior experience in yoga, mindfulness, or conscious living is required.
June 2026 DevOps Meetup
Talk 1
**Title: The Platform Is the People: SLAs, DORA and Trust at Billions of Requests a Month**
By: Harry Bouras
Role / LinkedIn: AI & Cloud Engineering leader, formerly heading the API organisation of a leading, extremely global and multicultural corporation. LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/harry-bouras/
Abstract:
Most "platform" talks are about tools. This one isn't. Heading the API organisation of a leading, extremely global and multicultural corporation, interconnecting decades of legacy systems while serving billions of requests a month and scaling across both Azure and Google Cloud, taught me a contrarian lesson the hard way: at that volume, platforms don't fail on technology, and cloud bills don't explode because of bad Terraform. They fail, or succeed, on how the organisation is set up to own, deliver and grow the thing. The org chart is the real architecture.
I'll walk through the levers that actually moved the needle, each anchored in real moments from that scale. How SLAs, framed as clarity rather than punishment, change engineer behaviour more than any dashboard. Why extending trust and time to a team up front - the most uncomfortable thing a leader can do, is precisely what raises build quality and cuts the rework you can't afford at billions of requests. What genuinely changed when we dragged a waterfall-shaped organisation toward iterative, Scrum-based delivery, and why that was about shortening feedback loops, not adding ceremonies. And how DORA metrics became our objective answer to a question every team argues about: what actually makes a successful Senior Software Engineer and what a DevOps engineer?
Then the human core, told honestly, which means told as comedy. What makes a good manager in this world, narrated through the things I was certain about and was completely wrong about. The running joke is also the real point: nearly every instinct that made me a good engineer made me a mediocre manager until I unlearned it.
Finally, a look at what we're all about to get wrong together: AI is forcing DevOps to grow up into DevSecOps - and the teams that handle it well will be the ones that already have the ownership, trust and growth culture this talk is really about.
Talk 2
**Postmortem Culture: Turning Failures into Learning, Not Blame**
By: Dani Yelovitch
Most engineering teams treat incidents as embarrassments to bury — a quick fix, a vague Slack message, and everyone moves on. This talk argues for a different approach: treating every failure as a gift.
The core idea is blameless postmortems — a practice pioneered at Google and Netflix where the goal isn't to find a scapegoat, but to understand how the system (people, tools, processes) allowed a failure to happen in the first place. If a human made a mistake, the real question is: why did the system make that mistake easy to make?
The talk would cover:
What a good postmortem looks like (and the common ways they go wrong)
How to run a blameless review without it becoming a blame-by-committee session
Turning action items into actual change, not a graveyard doc nobody reads
Building psychological safety so engineers report problems early instead of hiding them
The key takeaway: teams that learn from failure faster than their competitors ship better software with fewer catastrophic incidents — not because they have better engineers, but because they've built better feedback loops.
**Talk 3:**
Title: From Service Organization to Self-Service: Platform Engineering in Action
By Pavel Bureš from Sky
Modern engineering organisations accumulate platform silos faster than they can pay them down — each team picking its own way to provision workloads, databases, queues and caches, each with subtly different security, observability and cost profiles. In this talk we share how we are tackling that problem at scale through a Platform Engineering practice built on the principle of a unified, abstracted interface for application-centric configuration — an approach that shifts platform teams from "ticket-driven plumbing" to product thinking: stable contracts, golden paths, and self-service by default.
In the second half we zoom in on PEaaS (Persistence Engineering as a Service), our concrete implementation of these principles for stateful workloads. We will walk through the architecture — Crossplane 2.0 composition functions on EKS, application-centric Kubernetes claims (XRs), and a tenant-onboarding model that automates IAM, VPC endpoints, OIDC and S3 provisioning — and how it abstracts heterogeneous backends (Keyspaces, Aurora DSQL, Redis Cloud, and Kafka on EKS) behind one consistent interface.
Attendees will leave with: A practical pattern for designing engineering platforms in their own organisations.
A reference architecture for persistence-as-a-service on Crossplane.
Honest lessons on standardisation, tenant onboarding and platform adoption.

Customize the IDE: Building Extensions for Visual Studio Code - Alan Barber
**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you.
The building address is 4450 Bridge Park
The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400
You will need to scan your ID at the door to get a visitor badge.
**Abstract**
*Customize the IDE: Building Extensions for Visual Studio Code*
Visual Studio Code is one of the most widely used development environments today, and much of its flexibility comes from its extension ecosystem. Extensions allow developers to customize the editor with new features, integrations, and workflow improvements tailored to their needs.
In this session, we’ll cover what extensions are and the different types available, including full extensions written in TypeScript or JavaScript, along with lighter-weight extensions such as color themes, language packs, language support, code snippets, and keymaps. We’ll also look at practical reasons a developer might create an extension, from automating repetitive tasks to adding custom tooling.
The session includes a hands-on walkthrough of creating a new extension, testing it locally, and understanding the basic project structure. We’ll close with a brief overview of how extensions are packaged and published to the Visual Studio Marketplace and other distribution options.

Free in-person event: Take Control of Your Mental Health
It’s time to take control of your mental health. How do you get rid of stress, anxiety and uncertainty? These emotions are buried deep in your reactive mind. Find out what the reactive mind is, and in the process find yourself.
Have you ever suffered from a traumatic experience, a deep loss or been through a painful breakup? Has your ability to communicate suffered as a result? And after that, even though you "moved on" did you find that things were never quite the same? Have you ever looked at childhood photos, or reminisced your early life and wondered where that happiness and spark went?
Are your emotions out of your own control? Have you ever felt, even if you aren’t aware of it, that possibly you are getting in your own way of your happiness and success? How does this affect your self-confidence?
Find out what is at the root of all stress, anxiety, depression and self-doubt. Find out how and why you hold yourself back from achieving your goals and having the life you have dreamed of. As soon as you learn what is at the root of these unwanted conditions, you’ll see it is something you can DO something about. You will not be labeled or categorized at this MeetUp.
Microsoft Build - Columbus Edition!
We are bringing Microsoft Build sessions to Columbus Ohio!

Take Control Of Your Life, Freedom From Negative Thoughts & Irrational Emotions
Feeling down? Sometimes depressed? Can't focus? Negativity & stress? Recent losses? Creativity in career and personal life hindered by mental blocks? Sometimes we never fully recover from traumatic experiences.
Whether it was yesterday, last week or a year ago, traumatic experiences - a loss of a loved one, losing a job, a breakup - can leave you scarred. You talk about it and feel a little better, but it never goes away. After you hang up the phone, it's still there; the sadness, the cloud, the over-thinking, the worry, the guilt. You try to focus, but you're blocked. You try to look forward into new experiences, new relationships but a cloud is hanging over you, casting a shadow on what you once considered a bright, cheerful future.
What happened to your courage? Your strength of character? You're 'why not' attitude? Whoever said 'time heals' must have had a special time machine, because after weeks, months, years, you're wondering - when exactly does that kick in? Sometimes it seems like drinking or drugs are the way to go. But they wear off, and now the problem is still there with added side effects from the drugs.
At this free local Meetup event we will talk about:
* What causes grief, anxiety and depression to become chronic.
* Is it possible to regain your joy and happiness even after traumatic experiences?
* How to break away from negativity and focus on the future
* What are the steps to take to get control of your mind and your emotions?
Learn about a safe, gentle, do-it-yourself counseling that can be done in the comfort of your own home.
Let's explore safe, effective solutions for healing from traumatic experiences.
Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to the event. We look forward to seeing you there.

Stop Guessing: A Product Person's Guide to AI Adoption
## 🤝 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.
