Hast du Angst, vor Publikum zu sprechen? Verlangt dein Beruf Präsentationen, Pitches oder Vorträge? Wirst du nervös, sobald alle Augen auf dich gerichtet sind? Verlierst du manchmal den roten Faden oder merkst, wie deine Zuhörer gedanklich auf Wanderschaft gehen? Dann bist du bei uns genau richtig. Bei Toastmasters trainierst du deine Redekunst in einem sicheren, wertschätzenden Umfeld. Schritt für Schritt. Rede für Rede. Mit klarem Feedback und echter Unterstützung. Hier wächst nicht nur deine Technik, sondern auch deine Präsenz. ## So läuft ein typischer Abend ab 🎤 Der Abend wird von **Alexandra, unserer Präsidentin**, eröffnet. Sie führt durch das Programm und sorgt dafür, dass sich Gäste wie Mitglieder gleichermaßen willkommen fühlen. ### 🗣 Vorbereitete Reden (meist 4 Reden à 5–7 Minuten) In der Regel erwarten dich vier vorbereitete Reden. Persönlich, inspirierend, humorvoll oder nachdenklich. Jede Rede dauert zwischen 5 und 7 Minuten und ist Teil eines individuellen Lernwegs. ### ☕ Pause Zeit zum Austausch, Durchatmen und Kennenlernen. ### ⚡ Stegreifreden (1–2 Minuten) Hier wird es spontan. Ein Impuls, eine Frage, ein Gedanke. Auch **mutige Gäste** dürfen sich ausprobieren und ganz ungezwungen Bühnenluft schnuppern. ### 📝 Feedbackteil Nun kommt der vielleicht wichtigste Teil des Abends. * **Bewertungsreden** zu den vorbereiteten Reden (je 2–3 Minuten) * Feedback weiterer Rollen wie Zeitnehmer oder Sprachstilbewerter * Ein **Gesamtbewerter**, der den Abend als Ganzes reflektiert Das Feedback ist konstruktiv, konkret und immer wertschätzend. Es zeigt Stärken auf und gibt klare Impulse zur Weiterentwicklung. ### 👋 Verabschiedung Zum Abschluss rundet Alexandra den Abend ab und gibt einen Ausblick auf kommende Treffen. ### 🍽 Danach: Restaurant & Socializing Wer mag, kommt mit ins Restaurant. Dort wird weitergeredet, gelacht, diskutiert und vernetzt. Wenn du lernen willst, klarer zu sprechen, souveräner aufzutreten und deine Botschaften wirkungsvoll zu platzieren, dann komm einfach zum nächsten Clubtreffen. Die Bühne wartet nicht auf Perfektion. Sie belohnt Mut. ✨

​Artificial intelligence is evolving at an extraordinary pace and is already reshaping how we work, learn, create, and make decisions. Some see AI as a powerful tool that will enhance human potential and solve global problems. Others warn about risks: bias, automation, loss of control, and long-term societal impact. ​In this meeting, we will explore AI from both perspectives — techno-optimism and techno-pessimism. What can AI actually do today? How does it work under the hood? Where are its real strengths, and where are its limitations? And how should we think about its future development? ​We invite both professionals and non-professionals to join the discussion. Whether you work with AI, study it, are simply curious about it, or approach it from philosophy, psychology, sociology, or everyday experience — your perspective is welcome. ## **​Preparation & Suggested Materials** ​To help you prepare, we’ve put together a curated reading list that includes books, research papers, articles, interviews, and practical guides. The world of AI moves fast, so alongside well-known books you will also find recent articles and research projects. ​You don’t need to read everything. Choosing one book, article, or even a short explainer is enough to take part in the discussion. You’re also welcome to bring your own material, as long as it relates to artificial intelligence and its societal impact. ​The full list of suggested readings (with links) is available here: ​[https://docs.google.com/document/d/17PoZmqzxQ5EJsET292lTI193ms_MZNvgv5XAnbVmRBY/edit?usp=sharing](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Hu_dLOgnzvrfgE3CZQVBz6CqyPIgAMWxYE24o4yx3fQ/edit?usp=sharing&utm_source=luma) ***​Popular-Science Books*** ​Accessible but substantial books that explain how AI works and how it affects society. For example: * ​*Co-Intelligence* by Ethan Mollick * ​*Hello World* by Hannah Fry * ​*Artificial Intelligence: A Guide for Thinking Humans* by Melanie Mitchell * ​*Homo Deus* by Yuval Noah Harari ​***Scientific & Popular Articles*** ​Shorter texts for those with limited preparation time. These include: * ​A brief history of AI (Haenlein & Kaplan) * ​“On the Dangers of Stochastic Parrots” (Bender et al.) * ​Stephen Wolfram’s explainer on how ChatGPT works * ​Andrew Ng’s “AI is the New Electricity” ​***Real-World Applications & Practical Guides*** ​Materials for those interested in applied AI: * ​KDnuggets blog (case studies and practical use) * ​*Deep Learning Illustrated* * ​Google’s Prompt Engineering Guide ***​Research Projects*** ​For a forward-looking perspective: * ​Epoch AI * ​AI 2027 scenario ## **Important Information** ​​We aim to create a safe, inclusive space for sharing ideas and learning from different perspectives. Respectful dialogue is encouraged, and participants are asked to follow our **[Code of Conduct](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1zhC3yhSvmAoO4wx5TlEmW-oyxs5FhCXN7MD0f0I_SAc/edit?tab=t.0&utm_source=luma)**. * ​​**Age 16+** * ​​The discussion will be held **in English.** * ​​**Registration is required** to attend the event. * ​​Participation is free. Donations are optional and help support our meetings.

In our last sprint, we set up a shared baseline repository featuring a functional "Welcome Agent." We successfully used local shell scripts to build the Docker image, deploy it to GCP, and query the live endpoint. It's a solid foundation, but manually executing deployment scripts from a local machine is a bottleneck for rapid, collaborative development. **The Plan:** This session is about automating our existing cloud deployment. We will take the exact build and deploy steps we currently run locally and translate them into a GitHub Actions workflow. Once our agents are updating automatically on every push to `main`, we will shift focus back to agent behavior. We will build a simple Orchestrator Agent that uses the A2A protocol to dynamically delegate tasks to our cloud-hosted workers. **This is a "Lab" session. We will:** * **Automate the Pipeline:** Convert our local Docker and `gcloud` deployment scripts into a seamless GitHub Action workflow. * **Build the Orchestrator:** Develop a lightweight central agent designed to interpret a user prompt and route sub-tasks to our deployed workers. * **Live Multi-Agent Communication:** Establish an active dialogue over the A2A protocol between your Orchestrator and your worker agents. **The Format:** We run our sessions like an anthology series: **Every meetup is a standalone sprint.** While we often build on previous results, each session provides a complete experience and remains fully accessible to first-time attendees. This is a high-density micro-meetup limited to 6 seats. *(Newcomers: We will provide the fully prepped template repository so you can jump straight into the automation phase!)* **What you'll build** By the end of the session, you'll have: 1. **A Repeatable CI/CD Pipeline:** A set-and-forget GitHub Action that handles the GCP deployment automatically on every commit, replacing the need for local scripts. 2. **An Orchestrator Agent:** A coordinator capable of breaking down requests and utilizing external agent tools via A2A. 3. **A Live Multi-Agent Setup:** A functioning environment where your Orchestrator successfully communicates with and aggregates results from your automated cloud workers. **Schedule (Saturday, 10:00 - 13:00 CEST)** * **10:00:** Quick round of introductions. * **10:15:** Intro session: Migrating local scripts to GitHub Actions & Orchestrator routing patterns. * **10:30:** Build time: CI/CD automation & building the Orchestrator. * **12:00:** Live demos + technical teardown. * **12:45:** Wrap-up + takeaways. **Prerequisites** * **Accounts:** A Google Account (with GCP access\*) and a GitHub Account (for Actions). * **Laptop with dev setup:** Docker and Git installed and working. * **Access to an LLM API:** (Gemini, Claude, OpenAI, etc.). * **Mindset:** This is a lab for engineers, not a tutorial. We learn by building, breaking, and iterating. **Logistics** * **Location:** We meet at my office in the **Grunewald area** near Martin-Luther-Krankenhaus. The exact address will be shared privately with attendees to maintain privacy. * **Capacity:** Limited to 6 seats. \* You currently get $300 in free credits when you sign up with GCP, which is plenty for what we're trying to do. We can give some initial pointers for how to get started during the meeting, but won't have time to do a full GCP setup with you.

Everyone has access to AI. Everyone is creating more content. The real question is **How do you create content that actually performs when everyone is using the same tools?** At this DC Marketing Tech Talks session, we’re going beyond prompts and tools and getting into what actually matters now: * How to build a content strategy that doesn’t fall into the “AI slop” trap * How AI and search engines are actually evaluating and surfacing your content * How to distribute and structure your content so it reaches the right audience and drives results **What This Session Will Cover** This session is designed as a focused, three-part experience, with each speaker taking a different angle on what it really means to create content in an AI-driven world. We’ll start with **[Tara L. Finney](https://www.linkedin.com/in/tarafinney/)**, who brings a strategic lens shaped by over two decades of building content programs across B2B and B2C. Tara will walk through how to build a content strategy that aligns with your business goals, reflects your brand, and resonates with your audience. From there, **[Stephen Hart](https://www.linkedin.com/in/iamstephenahart/)** will shift the focus to what happens after the content is created. Because even strong content fails if it doesn’t reach the right people. He’ll walk through how to structure your content ecosystem so it can be distributed effectively, reused across channels, and scaled without requiring constant output or burnout. We’ll close with **[Alex Lindley](https://www.linkedin.com/in/alex-lindley-50823437/)**, who will take the conversation into how content is actually being evaluated today. As AI becomes a gatekeeper for discovery, it’s no longer just about what you publish, but how it’s interpreted. Alex will unpack how AI and search systems read, assess, and surface your content, giving you a clearer understanding of what drives visibility in an AI-influenced search landscape. This is a practical discussion about how to create content that shows up, gets read, and supports real business growth in a world shaped by AI. If you’re a marketer, founder, or content leader trying to figure out how to stay relevant in an AI-saturated world, this is the conversation you need to be in.
