Tuoreita tositarinoita tekoälyavusteisesta kehittämisestä
Tuoreita tositarinoita tekoälyavusteisesta kehittämisestä
Tule Vallilaan kuulemaan kaksi tositarinaa tekoälyavusteisesta softakehityksestä ja vaihtamaan ajatuksia softakehityksen tulevaisuudesta. I puheenvuoro **Lenni Ojala,** *Relex Solutions* **Uudistumista kaaosvoimin – mitä tapahtuu, kun AI-kokeilu päätetään tehdä isosti?** AI-työkalut kehittyvät kuukausissa. Organisaatiot muuttuvat yleensä hitaammin. Mitä jos ei lähdetä pieniin piloteihin — vaan päätetään tietoisesti avata kokeilu laajasti? RELEXillä tehtiin valinta: tuotepuolen ihmisille annettiin mahdollisuus kokeilla AI:ta featureiden tekemisessä kunnolla. Ei varovasti sivussa, vaan osana oikeaa tekemistä, end-to-end. Lenni Ojala kertoo, miten tällainen kokeilu johdetaan määrätietoisesti: * Miten päätös laajasta kokeilusta tehtiin? * Miten luotiin rakenteet, jotka mahdollistavat nopean - oppimisen? * Miten varmistettiin, ettei tiimin aikaansaaminen hajoa? * Missä kohtaa kokeilu muuttuu toimintatavaksi? Taustalla kulkee myös näkökulma luovuuteen ja ongelmanratkaisuun: Lenni on opiskellut systeemistä luovuutta ja tuo mukaan ajatuksen siitä, että luovuus ei ole sattumaa — se on rakennettavissa oleva kyvykkyys. AI voi toimia katalyyttina, mutta vain jos ympäristö tukee oppimista ja psykologista turvallisuutta. II puheenvuoro **Janne Oksanen**, *Museokortti &* **Tommi Sinivuo**\*, Wonna\* **Case Museokortti: Uusi ominaisuus Salesforce-ratkaisuun viidessä päivässä?** Voiko täysin uuden ominaisuuden rakentaa viidessä päivässä tekoälyavusteisesti ympäristössä ja koodipohjassa, joita devaajat eivät entuudestaan tunne? Museokortin järjestelmäpäällikkö Janne Oksanen päätti lähteä testaamaan tätä yhdessä Wonnan kanssa: mitä tapahtuu, kun vahva tuoteomistajuus ja syvä domain-osaaminen yhdistetään tekoälyavusteiseen kehitykseen. Kyse ei siis ollut pienestä kokeilusta, vaan oikeasta ominaisuudesta useamman käyttöliittymän palveluun. Salesforce on keskeinen osa Museokortin järjestelmäkokonaisuutta. Museokortin kehitystiimillä on vahva domain-osaaminen sekä syvä ymmärrys omasta ympäristöstään. Wonnan kehittäjillä taas ei ollut aiempaa kokemusta Salesforcesta. Uskottiin silti, että on mahdollisuus onnistua - ainakin oppimaan. Nopeuttaako tekoäly riittävästi teknologia-alustan haltuunottoa? Kuinka pitkälle vahva domain-ymmärrys kantaa? Case-esittelyssä avataan: * Mitä tekoälyltä odotettiin etukäteen * Mitä oikeasti tehtiin * Mitä opittiin * Mitkä odotukset toteutuivat ja mitkä eivät * Mitä kysymysmerkkejä jäi * Mitä seuraavaksi **Kenelle ja miksi?** Meetup tarjoaa ajatuksenruokaa devaajille ja heitä johtaville ihmisille siitä, mikä jo nyt on mahdollista, ja kuinka näihin mahdollisuuksiin kannattaisi softakehitystiimien tarttua. Tarjolla on pitsaa ja virvokkeita. Tämä sessio vedetään suomeksi. Meetupia ei nauhoiteta. *Wonna-meetupien tavoite on tuoda ohjelmistoalan ihmiset yhteen oppimaan ja inspiroimaan toisiaan, jotta softatiimit pystyisivät tehokkaammin vastaamaan asiakkaiden ja markkinoiden muuttuviin tarpeisiin – tinkimättä ammattiylpeydestä, työnilosta ja hyvästä elämästä.*

Board Games at Arkade (Thursday)
Board Games at Arkade (Thursday)
Pay the **5 € board gaming fee** to the bar at the counter when you arrive. You must be at least 18 years old to enter [Arkade](https://www.arkade.fi/). We play in English and the game rules are taught before starting play, unless everyone is already familiar with the game. No previous experience with board gaming required. Despite our RSVP numbers here on Meetup, we almost always have at least 20 people participating weekly. The venue has a great board game library, the host and other players usually bring their own games too: our selection varies weekly. We're a very casual group so you're welcome to arrive early or late and join whatever game is starting up, there is no attendance tracking, or welcoming process. The bar has alcoholic drinks, mocktails, and soft drinks available as well as some snack foods. They've been okay with people ordering food to the bar with meal delivery services. If you are feeling sick, please stay home.

Full Circle
Full Circle
Full Circle is a community of practice where mental health and wellbeing professionals come together to learn, share, and grow. ​If you’re a mental health or wellbeing practitioner who thrives on shared wisdom and community, Full Circle offers a space where you can connect, grow, and bring fresh insights back into your client work. ​**Full Circle is for professionals who work with clients in mental health or wellbeing** (e.g. psychotherapists, counsellors, art therapists, coaches, and others integrating mind–body approaches) . ​A community of practice is a space where we come together as professionals to share our experiences, challenges, and insights, not to be taught, but to learn from each other. Full Circle is about connection, not workshops. It’s a circle of peers, not a classroom. ​**By registering for this event, you agree to stand by our shared principles:** * ​Confidentiality: What is shared in the circle stays in the circle. * ​Presence: We give our full attention to each other, listening deeply. * ​Respect: Every voice matters; we value different perspectives and approaches. * ​Curiosity: We come to explore, not to give definitive answers. * ​Contribution: Everyone is encouraged to share practices, cases, and reflections. * ​Commitment: We show up consistently, knowing the community grows through regular participation. ​**How our gatherings work**: ​We gather **once a month** in person, and every time we move through the same process: * ​*Check-in*: We begin by going around the circle, with each person sharing what’s present for them in the moment. * ​*Shared practice*: One member of the community leads the group through a method, exercise, or embodied practice from their own field. Everyone experiences it first-hand. * ​*Integration dialogue*: Together, we explore what the practice brought up and how it might be woven into our client work. * ​*Check-out*: Each person shares one insight they will carry with them.

Trails & Ales! Slate Run Metro Park / Loose Rail Brewing
Trails & Ales! Slate Run Metro Park / Loose Rail Brewing
**History** [Slate Run Metro Park](https://www.metroparks.net/parks-and-trails/slate-run/), located south of Canal Winchester in Pickaway County, has roots tracing back to the early planning efforts of the Columbus and Franklin County Metropolitan Park District. In 1963, Metro Parks officials identified the land along Slate Run as having strong potential for a large metropolitan park due to its expansive acreage, diverse habitats, and natural features like the stream that gave the area its name. The largest stream in the vicinity, Slate Run, flows south to northwest through a ridge, providing a logical basis for the park's designation. Between 1964 and 1968, Metro Parks acquired approximately 1,662 acres through multiple parcels, including a key 212-acre farmstead that had been continuously operated since 1805. This acquisition phase positioned Slate Run as a future major addition to the system, following the openings of other parks like Sharon Woods in 1968 and Highbanks in 1973. The park officially opened to the public in 1981, marking it as the sixth Metro Park in the district and, at the time, the largest with its substantial land holdings. From the outset, Metro Parks envisioned incorporating a living historical farm to educate visitors about 19th-century Ohio agriculture. The focal 212-acre parcel, purchased from the White family heirs in 1964, included historic structures that made it ideal for this purpose. The park's development preserved natural areas such as grasslands, wetlands, meadows, and forests while integrating interpretive elements. Upon opening, Slate Run quickly became a popular destination for nature enthusiasts and history buffs alike. Central to the park's identity is the Slate Run Living Historical Farm, which interprets life on a typical Ohio farm in the 1880s. The gothic revival farmhouse on the site was constructed in 1856 by owner Isaac Fridley and later restored by Metro Parks for historical accuracy. Visitors can explore interiors like the living room, parlor, and kitchen, where interpreters demonstrate period activities. The multi-bay barn, built in 1881 by Samuel Oman (the fourth owner), was meticulously restored with help from Amish carpenters. Heirloom animals such as Percheron horses, pigs, geese, and turkeys inhabit the farm, enhancing the immersive experience. The historical farmstead reflects a long lineage of ownership and agricultural use dating back to the early 19th century. Continuous farming on the land since 1805 made the site authentic for recreating late-19th-century practices, including grain harvesting and animal husbandry. Metro Parks focused on authenticity by restoring original buildings and introducing period-appropriate methods, such as horse-powered threshing machines from the late 1880s. The farm operates with volunteers and staff in period attire to portray daily rural life. This educational component has drawn school groups and families for decades. Today, Slate Run Metro Park spans about 1,705 acres and attracts roughly 250,000 visitors annually for its blend of natural preservation and historical interpretation. The park maintains diverse habitats supporting wildlife like nesting sandhill cranes and reintroduced northern bobwhite quail. Trails and open spaces offer opportunities for hiking and observation amid the preserved landscapes. The Living Historical Farm remains a crown jewel, continuing to teach about Ohio's agricultural heritage. Ongoing programs and restorations ensure the site's relevance for future generations. **Map of the Park** Here is a [map of Slate Run](https://www.metroparks.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/SLR-parkmap@2x.gif). **Summary** For this event, we will hike the Five Oaks, Sugar Maple, Covered Bridge, Shagbark, and Lake Trails. This will be around 4.5 to 5 miles. While Slate Run is moderately strenuous in a few places, it's generally a good place to hike and doesn't seem to wear people out. Some spots on the hike are unshaded, though, so be prepared for the possibility of some sun. I find Slate Run to be very underappreciated for the quality of its hiking. **Where We'll Meet** We'll meet at the [Shady Grove Picnic Area](https://www.google.com/maps/place/39%C2%B045'30.1%22N+82%C2%B050'13.2%22W/@39.758347,-82.83701,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m4!3m3!8m2!3d39.758347!4d-82.83701?entry=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI2MDIxMS4wIKXMDSoASAFQAw%3D%3D). You can use the map pin I've provided here; it's accurate. There's a latrine at Shady Grove, but there is no running water (no water fountains). We will pass a water fountain when we get to the Buzzard's Roost Picnic Area, although I can't guarantee this fountain won't be off for the winter. I'd recommend bringing some water just in case, at least for after the hike. I'd also recommend [hiking shoes](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D972KN3W) for this park. **After the Hike** Once we're finished at Slate Run, we'll head over to [Loose Rail Brewing](https://looserailbrewing.com/) for [drinks](https://looserailbrewing.com/canal-winchester-canal-winchester-loose-rail-brewing-drink-menu) and [food](https://looserailbrewing.com/canal-winchester-canal-winchester-loose-rail-brewing-food-menu). The brewery's actual address is [37 W Waterloo St, Canal Winchester, OH 43110](https://www.google.com/maps/place/37+W+Waterloo+St,+Canal+Winchester,+OH+43110/@39.8432511,-82.8071032,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m6!3m5!1s0x88387be3ac496d83:0x23e8ee9d9391dd6b!8m2!3d39.8432511!4d-82.8071032!16s%2Fg%2F11cp8n8x1j?entry=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI2MDIxMS4wIKXMDSoASAFQAw%3D%3D), and it's about 10-12 minutes from Slate Run. We should be there by 5 if you can't make the hike and just want to join us for drinks.
