Runic Readings
Runic Readings
Sessions of **individual runic readings** are available for beginners all along summer, both online (75 CHF) and offline in Zurich (100 CHF). These sessions are **NOT** esoteric or divinatory. We're approaching runes as **a symbolic system of archetypes** to examine any situation or question that is currently relevant to you. *If you feel stuck in a situation and cannot see a way forward, are facing a difficult decision, navigating a period of uncertainty, or trying to understand a recurring pattern in your life, a runic reading may offer a different perspective.* **You will receive:** • a clearer and systemic understanding of what is actually happening; • insight into hidden influences affecting the situation; • a better understanding of why certain difficulties keep repeating; • greater clarity around available options and their likely consequences; • practical ideas for what to do next. For registration and payment details, send me a direct message or fill in this form [The Alchemist Lab - Contact](https://alchemistlab.ch/Contact)

Zürich Poolside Chats : UX · Product · Research
Zürich Poolside Chats : UX · Product · Research
### **Poolside Chats: Design, Research, Engineering & UX** Join us for a relaxed summer gathering at one of Zurich’s local Badis. This is a casual community meetup for designers, researchers developers, product managers, and other curious builders who enjoy thoughtful conversations, sharing ideas, and spending time outdoors. We’ll gather by the pool to discuss topics such as: * Passion projects * Design, technology, and product thinking * Ethical and responsible uses of AI * Creativity, learning, and experimentation * Personal philosophies and ways of working * Interesting questions about the future The format is intentionally informal. Feel free to join a conversation, listen, ask questions, or share something you’ve been exploring. Need a break? Take a swim, cool off, and come back with a fresh perspective or a new idea to discuss. This is not a recruiting event, job fair, or transactional networking meetup. While meaningful professional relationships may naturally develop over time, the purpose of the gathering is not to find clients, hire employees, or look for your next job. Instead, the goal is to create a welcoming space for genuine conversation, intellectual curiosity, and human connection. Bring your curiosity, a towel, and whatever ideas have been occupying your mind lately. \*Come to exchange ideas, not business cards.\*

pan.talk – Wie die KI jassen lernt
pan.talk – Wie die KI jassen lernt
**Und was Unternehmen daraus über Sichtbarkeit, Kontrolle und Vertrauen in der KI-Welt lernen.** «Stöck, Wyys, Stich.» In der Schweiz weiss jeder sofort, was gespielt wird. Die grossen KI-Modelle kennen unser Kulturgut jedoch nur oberflächlich. Wo das Trainingsmaterial dünn ist, erfinden sie die Regeln mit voller Überzeugung. Dasselbe Problem hat fast jede Firma mit ihrem internen Fach- und Produktwissen. Remo Prinz zeigt, wie man durch strukturierte Daten Teil des KI-Training Korpus wird, verlässlich zitiert wird und dieses Fundament über ein autorisiertes Model Context Protocol (MCP) zu einer kontrollierten, vertrauenswürdigen Live-Quelle ausbaut. Ist es ausserdem möglich, ein Modell zu trainieren, das nicht nur perfekt jasst, sondern als geduldiger Mentor jeden Zug erklären kann? Ein Abend über Tradition, strukturierte Daten – und die Frage, wie Organisationen in der KI-Welt zur Quelle werden, der die Maschinen vertrauen.
FREE Retreat + Healthy Brunch🌺
FREE Retreat + Healthy Brunch🌺
Gönn dir eine bewusste Auszeit vom schnelllebigen Alltag und schenke dir ein paar Stunden nur für dich. Wir starten mit sanften Yoga- und Bewegungsübungen, um im Körper anzukommen, Spannungen loszulassen und den Kopf etwas leiser werden zu lassen. Die Bewegung hilft uns, aus dem Denken ins Spüren zu kommen und bereitet uns auf die anschliessende Meditation vor. Danach tauchen wir gemeinsam in eine geführte Meditation ein und nehmen uns Zeit für Reflexion, Journaling und wertvolle Erkenntnisse. Zum Abschluss geniessen wir einen gesunden Brunch und lassen den Vormittag in entspannter Atmosphäre ausklingen. Es bleibt genügend Raum für inspirierende Gespräche, echte Verbindungen und das Kennenlernen von Menschen, die ähnliche Werte teilen. Mein Wunsch ist, dass du mit neuer Energie, mehr Klarheit, wertvollen Erkenntnissen und einem Gefühl von Verbundenheit nach Hause gehst. 🫂✨ 🌿 Bitte mitbringen: • Yogamatte • Trinkflasche • Journal & Stift • Tuch • Sonnencreme 🥗 Healthy Brunch inklusive 📍 Eulachpark Oberwinterthur 🕙 Start: 10:00 Uhr 🌿 Open End Kostenlos.

Why We Scroll: A Workshop on Attention, Energy & Habits
**[>Ticket needed<](https://link.social-circle.ch/x0RD)** Using your phone more intentionally starts with understanding why we reach out for our phones in the first place (*hint: it has nothing to do with your lack of discipline*). One moment you unlocked your phone to text a friend, and the next time you looked up, an hour has gone by. This workshop will be led by **Michelle**, a neuroscientist with **a PhD in the study of human emotions**. She's spent years researching why we feel what we feel, and strives to bring science into the room in a way that's warm, accessible, and useful. Join us to understand why you scroll, and what you can actually do about it. Grounded in neuroscience, this is a hands-on afternoon of self-reflection, group discussions, and practical tools you can use starting immediately.

Data & Analytics Wednesday - Learning from Everyday Data
Data & Analytics Wednesday - Learning from Everyday Data
**Practical Curiosity: Learning from Everyday Data** How do we actually get better at utilizing our day-to-day data? Fancy dashboards and complex models might look nice and draw attention, but that’s not where most of us spend our time. In fact those shiny outputs frequently sit unused, while the real insights are drawn from the analyst’s daily practice. Sometimes it’s as simple and as powerful as noticing that a segment is shrinking, a channel is underused, or certain links keep getting all the clicks. There’s many different places that the spark of insight can come from, but you have to keep your head in the data and know where to look. In this session, we’ll explore real-world examples of how segmentation, testing, and click behavior can uncover practical digital marketing opportunities. You’ll leave with inspiration for your own use cases, along with a few simple ways to ask better questions, spot meaningful patterns, and make smarter decisions without overcomplicating it. **About Our Speaker:** [Elaine Armbruster](https://www.linkedin.com/in/elainearmbruster/) is a Director of Digital Experience at the [American Diabetes Association](https://diabetes.org/), where she focuses on using data and insights to create smarter, more effective digital experiences. A lifelong Columbus resident, she has built her career in email marketing and the broader digital user journey, and is finding she most enjoys working in the messy middle where systems, data, and big ideas don’t quite line up yet. Thanks to our 2026 sponsors: [Clarivoy](https://www.clarivoy.com), [What Box Consulting Group](https://www.whatboxconsultinggroup.com), [Conductrics](https://www.conductrics.com), and [Piwik PRO](https://piwik.pro) More info at [cbusdaw.com](https://cbusdaw.com)

Stop Guessing: How to Measure and Improve LLM Outputs
Stop Guessing: How to Measure and Improve LLM Outputs
Most people use LLMs by feel: ask a question, read the answer, decide whether it “seems good,” and move on. That works for casual use. It does not work when you are building software, automating workflows, writing important documents, or relying on AI for anything that needs to be repeatable. In this talk, we’ll look at how to improve and evaluate the inputs and outputs of LLMs using practical measurement techniques. We’ll cover how prompt changes affect results, how to compare outputs, how to build simple evaluation sets, and how math-based methods like similarity scoring can help you move beyond guesswork. This will be beginner-friendly, so even if you don't know anything about AI, you should get something out of it. However, this will be a little more technical than our intro talks. You do not need to be an AI researcher, but programmers and technically curious attendees will get a lot out of it. We’ll cover: * Why “it looks good” is not enough * How to improve prompts by changing the input, context, and constraints * How to compare LLM outputs more systematically * Basic evaluation techniques for accuracy, consistency, and usefulness * How embeddings, cosine similarity, and scoring can help evaluate results * Where automated evaluation works — and where humans still need to stay in the loop By the end, you’ll have a practical mental model for treating LLMs less like magic and more like systems you can test, measure, and improve. 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.
