74th Deep Learning Meetup: Agentic AI & Causal Inference
Hi Deep Learners,
We are happy to announce one more Vienna Deep Learning Meetup before the summer break: on **June 10** at ÖBB. We will again have two talks: Agentic AI in Production and Exploratory Causal Inference.
\*\*\*
**Agenda:**
* 18:15 Arrival
* 18:30 **Introduction** by the meetup organizers
* **Welcome** by the host: ÖBB
* 18:45 **Talk 1: Agentic AI Systems in Production: Best Practices, Challenges & Lessons Learned** by Hilda Kosorus (*Onefold AI*)
* 19:30 **Announcements**
* **Networking Break**
* 20:00 **Talk 2:** **Scaling Empiricism in Artificial Causal Inference** by Riccardo Cadei *(ISTA)*
* 20:30 **Networking**
* \~21:30 **Wrap up & End**
\*\*\*
**Talk Details:**
\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-
**Talk 1:** **Agentic AI Systems in Production: Best Practices, Challenges & Lessons Learned**
Building agentic AI systems that work in production is harder than the demos suggest. Real users, real data, and real edge cases surface challenges that don't show up in most tutorials. We must consider orchestration trade-offs, observability gaps, evaluation strategy, latency and cost realities. There's constant tension between giving agents autonomy and keeping them under control.
In this talk, we share what we've learned shipping agentic systems end-to-end. We'll walk through how our architectures evolved and the trade-offs behind each shift, and we'll be honest about which frameworks — such as LangGraph, LangChain, Langfuse — earned their place in our stack. Expect architecture diagrams and the patterns we now apply to lead our custom projects to success.
**About the speaker:**
We are Onefold AI — Tobi, Csenge, and Hilda. We combine deep LLM engineering with a research foundation, years of data science work, and multiple agentic systems shipped end-to-end into production. Our recent projects span compliance and audit automation, multi-agent workspaces for food scientists, and our own product development — all building on the hard-won lessons we'll share in this session.
**Talk 2:** **Scaling Empiricism in Artificial Causal Inference**
Randomized trials are the gold standard of empirical science, yet their analysis still hinges on hand-crafted hypotheses: the investigator has to decide upfront what to measure and whom to compare, often anchoring on familiar narratives. A paradigm shift is now within reach: modern trials measure more, and representation learning gives us the tools to scale the reading accordingly. In this talk, I will present two algorithms I developed to bridge this richer measurement to causal claims, e.g., scientific discoveries or policy guidelines. Neural Effect Search (NES) identifies the latent effects of a treatment from unstructured outcomes. Neural EXposure Interaction Search (NEXIS) identifies an interpretable and prescriptive characterization of effect heterogeneity. I will illustrate both through real-world deployments in experimental ecology and development economics.
**About the speaker:**
Riccardo Cadei is an ELLIS PhD student at ISTA with a growing record of foundational, methodological, and applied contributions to Causal Inference and AI for Science. He actively collaborates with biologists, neuroscientists, economists, and public-health researchers, translating his vision of Artificial Causal Inference into concrete scientific workflows.
We are looking forward to welcoming you at our last meetup before summer!

HePriceR: An R Package for Health Insurance
We are pleased to welcome **Eva Flonner** from UNIQA Insurance Group to present an R package for health insurance. Join us to explore how R can be put to work in actuarial practice, from data to modeling to simulation. As we promote gender diversity and inclusion in the R community, all genders and skill levels in R are welcome!
**ℹ️ Abstract**
**HePriceR** is an R package for health insurance pricing that provides a framework for modeling expected claims and their uncertainty. The package consolidates classical actuarial approaches with modern statistical modeling, enabling transparent, reproducible, and extensible actuarial workflows.
The core focus of HePriceR lies in the estimation of expected claims and their uncertainty. It implements multiple methodological approaches, including the Rusam method for expected claims, as well as comprehensive frequency–severity modeling. The package further provides technical implementations for common product design features, such as deductibles, sublimits, and benefit caps, ensuring that modeled claim distributions align with contractual reality. From a software design perspective, HePriceR relies on a structured system of S3 classes and methods, including dedicated hpr_pricing_data objects and corresponding fit objects. This design enables consistent handling of data, fitted models, diagnostics, and downstream simulation. On top of the fitted models, the package offers Monte Carlo simulation capabilities. Overall, HePriceR provides a cohesive actuarial toolkit that bridges actuarial methodology and statistical modeling, supporting both daily operations and advanced analytical use cases. This package is based on joint work with Herr Kompott.

LANGUAGE EXCHANGE & SOCIALIZING in vienna
Hello !
and welcome to our international family in Vienna!
[[[Click this Whatsapp Groupchat link to join]](https://chat.whatsapp.com/Jga77Y4PCAJF4byfaVtOeZ)
This isn’t just a language exchange — it’s a lively gathering of globally minded souls in their 20s and 30s who love new experiences.
We meet every Saturday at 7:30 PM in the heart of the city.
Whether you’re a backpacker passing through or a Viennese local curious about the world,
you'll find open minds and open hearts here.
Come practice new languages, share your culture, and make authentic connections.
Roots: Memory, Migration, Nature & Belonging
**Roots: Memory, Migration, Nature & Belonging**
This workshop explores how our memories, identities, and sense of belonging are shaped by the plants and climates we grow up with, and how these relationships change through experiences of migration, movement, and transformation.
Whether migration is across countries, cities, languages, or social environments, we carry traces of these places with us, often in ways we do not immediately recognise.
Grounded in queer ecology and theory, this workshop approaches nature as a space that challenges fixed categories and celebrates diverse ways of relating, adapting, and existing.
**Queer Ecology, Memory, and Migration**
Drawing from writers such as Sania Shah and Jessica J. Lee, alongside examples of queerness in flowers and plant life, participants will reflect on their own connections to place, memory, and movement.
Together, we will explore questions such as:
* What do we carry with us when we migrate?
* How do plants, landscapes, and climates shape identity?
* What traces of former homes remain with us?
* How do we create belonging in new environments?
* What can nature teach us about adaptation and transformation?
**Creative Reflection and Making**
Participants are invited to identify a transformational plant, flower, tree, or natural element that holds personal significance.
Through storytelling, group discussion, painting, and speculative making methods, we will explore how reconnecting with these plant memories can help us understand where we come from, how we identify ourselves, and how we root ourselves in the places we inhabit today.
Together, we will imagine and create small portable objects inspired by these plants and memories.
These creations may become:
* Personal holders
* Necklaces
* Keychains
* Magnets
* Pins
* Other everyday companions
These objects will serve as small reminders of memory, movement, belonging, and transformation.
**Community, Anti-Racism, and Collective Storytelling**
The workshop also engages with themes of anti-racism, the right to existence, community-building, and collective storytelling.
Through rounds of sharing and listening, participants contribute to a supportive environment where personal stories become a starting point for understanding broader experiences of belonging, migration, identity, and difference.
Sharing personal experiences is welcome but never required. Participants are encouraged to engage in whatever way feels comfortable for them.
**Who Is This Workshop For?**
This workshop welcomes:
* Migrants and refugees
* Diaspora communities
* LGBTQIA+ people
* Artists, writers, and creatives
* Nature lovers
* Community organisers
* People interested in identity, memory, and belonging
* Anyone curious about migration, ecology, and storytelling
No prior knowledge or artistic experience is required.

AI Agents 101: How to Make ChatGPT Do Actual Work
Most people still use AI like a search box: type one question, get one answer, repeat.
But the next step is AI agents: systems that can take a goal, break it into steps, use tools, remember context, and produce useful work for a human to review.
In this beginner-friendly session, we’ll demystify what AI agents actually are — without hype or jargon. We’ll walk through practical examples of how agents can help with research, planning, writing, coding, operations, and personal productivity.
We’ll cover:
* What makes an AI “agent” instead of just a chatbot
* How agents break tasks into steps
* Where agents are genuinely useful today
* Where they fail, hallucinate, or need human review
* How to design simple AI workflows for your own work
* A live demo of an AI agent-style workflow from start to finish
No coding experience required. This is for anyone who wants to understand where AI tools are going and how to use them more effectively right now.
LOGISTICS AND PARKING:
The talk starts at 7:00 PM. The first half hour is reserved for everyone to get set up and mingle. Free pizza and drinks!
The cheapest parking option is to find street parking, which will only cost you a few bucks. Otherwise, park in the nearby veteran's museum lot for $8. It's highly recommended you avoid the nearby $15 garage parking.
American Sign Language Beginners Meetup Group
We meet to learn and practice American Sign Language and to grow our familiarity with Deaf culture. Facilitated by hearing folks (with a connection to a professional interpreter) using Deaf-created content. People of all ASL skill levels are welcome! As we learn, we hope to connect more with the Deaf community in Central Ohio. Join us as you're able!
Come regularly or just once - whatever you're looking for! Each meetup will explore different topics related to ASL/Deaf culture, and will feature time to practice conversation with one another. Just bring yourself and a willingness to learn!
Battle of the personal agents
Join the Columbus AI community for a special event.
**Battle of the Personal Agents** is your chance to see what people are actually building with AI agents and personal automation systems. Whether you’re running OpenClaw, Hermes, or a completely custom solution, bring your agent and show the community how it works.
We’re interested in real-world implementations: the problems your agent solves, how you use it day-to-day, how it’s hosted and managed, how you built it, and why you’ve chosen to keep using it. Live demonstrations are encouraged, so be prepared to show your code, architecture, workflows, and your agent performing real tasks.
This is less about polished presentations and more about sharing practical experience, comparing approaches, and learning from one another. If you’d like to present, please contact Chris Slee (via meetup) before the event so we can allocate enough time for everyone’s demonstrations.
Come ready to show what you’ve built, discover what others are doing, and maybe find a few ideas worth taking home.
Whether you’re deep in the field or just getting curious, come connect with others building and exploring AI in Columbus.

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.
