Machine Learning

With AI dominating every conversation, it’s becoming harder to separate real business value from hype. In this roundtable, we’ll explore how AI is actually used in modern analytics (beyond chatbots and flashy demos). Our special guest, Dr. Pawel Kampczyk, Head of AI & Data Science at Aktiia, will uncover where large language models and machine learning make a real impact, where their limits are, and how companies can use them with confidence. You’ll leave with a clearer mental model of how AI is used in marketing and analytics today. What to trust, what to double-check, and where it can drive measurable value for your business. The Analytics Roundtable will as always take place at the Advance Metrics office at the On Labs Tower in Zurich at Förrlibuckstrasse 190.

Web Zurich presents inspiring talks all about the web. Join us for the March 2026 meetup! We will have three talks as well as chit-chat and drinks. Whatapp: [https://chat.whatsapp.com/FxOfVTK9nf431xHtVl3eGK](https://chat.whatsapp.com/FxOfVTK9nf431xHtVl3eGK) Website: [https://webzurich.ch](https://webzurich.ch) 18:30 \~ 19:00 Arrival time with drinks, chat and introduction 19:00 \~ 19:40 *Christian Heitzmann* **Why Documentation Won’t Write Itself—and AI Won’t Save You** For the last 15+ years, I’ve joined and consulted software teams that all struggled with the same problem: nobody likes writing documentation, and everybody pays the price for it. New developers spend weeks reverse-engineering codebases, architecture lives in people’s heads, and wikis quietly decay into noise. With AI now entering the picture, many hope it will fill the gaps. It won’t. I’ll show the simple ideas that change everything: how to think about documentation in the right levels, how to keep it close to the code, and how to avoid the decay we all know too well. These are the decisions that have to be made before any tool or process can work. The documentation won’t write itself. But there are ways to make it far easier and far more reliable. 19:40 \~ 19:50 **Short Break** 19:50 \~ 20:10 *Marco Gähler* **How to write good code** There is an infinite amount of solutions how you can solve a programming problem. Some are better, others are worse. The best solutions are easy to understand, maintain and errors are not able to hide. I wrote a book "Software Engineering Made Easy" about this topic and I'm more than happy to explain some principles that make your code better. Most of them are quite simple to understand, once you understand the mechanics, why your code always breaks. 20:10 \~ 20:30 *Marius Ishida* **AI: The Lightsaber Problem** My talk will challenge the popular narrative that AI fundamentally democratizes power by showing that, which I believe is not true at all. While generative AI lowers entry barriers for basic tasks, it disproportionately amplifies the productivity and leverage of already computer literate users. Empirical research shows that AI acts as a skill multiplier rather than a true equalizer, with outcomes strongly dependent on users’ ability to frame problems, verify outputs, and integrate tools into complex workflows. As a result, AI risks reinforcing a new AI driven digital divide, where technical literacy—not access alone—determines who truly benefits. 20:30 onward More drinks & chat We look forward to see you there!

**\>\>\> Please use [this registration link](https://events.xebia.com/intelligent-automation/outsystems-ai-ambition-vs-enterprise-reality) <<<<<** The speed of AI evolution is outpacing most organizations' ability to adopt it, especially when it comes to integrating agentic AI into business processes. This session explores **why platform-based approaches are helping organizations bridge the gap between AI ambition and real business value.** We'll address the most common adoption challenges and what's actually slowing organisations down. Most attempt to build their own AI-powered custom software solutions, but achieving the speed and scale required takes more than technology, it requires a different operating model. [Xebia](https://xebia.com) invites [OutSystems](https://www.outsystems.com) to share their real-world perspective on intelligent automation and closing the enterprise adoption gap. **Speakers** * [Aysegul Kaya](https://www.linkedin.com/in/aysegul-kaya-121a70108/).

## (Lesson 2) ## What to expect Project Equilibrium is an in-person introduction to disciplined, rule-based trading automation. This first event is designed to be clear, practical, and approachable no hype, no pressure, and no prior technical background required. ### Why we meet (two-session structure) This meetup is structured as **two lessons**: **Lesson 1 — The “Why” (mindset + framework)** * What Project Equilibrium is (and what it is not) * Why we focus on process, rules, and execution discipline * What “24/7 execution” means in practice * Q&A and open discussion **Lesson 2 — The “How” (step-by-step setup)** * A simple walkthrough of the basic tools you need * Step-by-step guidance to install and prepare the required exchange apps/accounts * A clear checklist to be ready for future sessions (You won’t be left alone—everything is explained calmly and in order.) ### What to bring To make the second lesson smooth, please bring: * **A smartphone** (for authentication and exchange app setup) * **A laptop** (for the setup steps and configuration) If you only have one device, you can still join Lesson 1. The setup lesson is simply easier with both. ### Who this is for * People curious about algorithmic execution and portfolio discipline * Beginners who want a structured approach * Experienced traders who want more consistency and less stress ### Agenda * Welcome + introductions * Lesson focus of the day (Why / How) * Guided walkthrough (where applicable) * Q&A + next steps ### How to find the group * Arrive a few minutes early and look for the **Project Equilibrium** group. * I will be there to welcome attendees if you’re unsure, simply ask the venue staff for the Meetup group name.

**First meetup of the Columbus AI Engineering group.** We’ll kick things off with a practical, beginner-friendly discussion on: **How LLMs like ChatGPT actually work — and how to build real applications with them.** We’ll cover: * what’s actually happening under the hood (at a high level) * why LLMs behave the way they do (hallucinations, prompt sensitivity, etc.) * how people are building real systems with them today * where things break in practice This will be a **short, informal talk (\~15–20 min)** followed by open discussion and Q&A. Whether you’re an engineer, builder, or just curious about how modern AI systems work, you’re welcome to join. No slides, no fluff — just real conversation about real systems. We’ll hang out afterward and get to know each other.

**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 **Abstract** Web Forms gave .NET developers a powerful abstraction for building reusable UI controls long before design systems were a thing. Web Components finally bring that same idea to the browser natively. This session explores how the Web Forms mindset translates into Custom Elements, Shadow DOM, and HTML templates. We’ll examine how Web Components enable design systems that work across frameworks, how they differ from server‑driven controls, and why they’re becoming a foundational layer for modern UI. Whether you’re maintaining legacy apps or building greenfield projects, you’ll leave with a practical understanding of how to apply familiar patterns in a modern, standards‑based way. **YouTube Link** TBA
