Berlin. Designing the Next Generation of AI Experiences
**Designing the Next Generation of AI Experiences**
AI products are evolving faster than ever. But while interfaces become smarter, trust, clarity, and usability often lag behind.
Join us for an evening exploring how designers shape AI experiences people can actually understand, trust, and use with confidence. Together with leading voices from the design industry, weâll discuss the challenges of designing for AI-driven products, emerging UX patterns, and what it takes to build meaningful human-centered experiences in an increasingly automated world.
The evening will feature several keynotes, followed by a panel discussion and networking with Berlinâs design community.
**Speakers & Talks**
## Speakers & Talks
â**[Rafaela Stamboroski](https://www.linkedin.com/in/rstamboroski/?utm_source=luma)**
Model Behavior Designer for Joule at SAP
â**Talk: Guarding the Guardrails: The Designerâs Role as Behavior Becomes the Product**
Designers have always created shared context: aligning people, decisions, workflows, and business goals around user needs. In AI-native products, this skill becomes even more critical. Strategy and systems thinking turn into behavior alignment: shaping how AI acts, responds, and collaborates with humans.
âThis talk explores why the designerâs role is not shrinking in the AI paradigm. Instead, designers are moving upstream: defining guardrails, influencing product strategy, and helping businesses deliver AI value safely and meaningfully.
â**[Abanoub Awny](https://www.linkedin.com/in/abanoubawny/?utm_source=luma)**
Sr. UX Designer & AI Innovator @ SAP Signavio, Founder of [Unblind UX](https://www.linkedin.com/company/unblindux/?utm_source=luma)
â
**Talk: Your Next User Isnât Human**
AI is no longer just a feature inside digital products. It is becoming an active participant in how products are used, interpreted, and operated. As agents begin to navigate workflows, consume system structures, interpret content, make recommendations, and collaborate with humans, design must evolve beyond screens and interactions.
This talk challenges designers, product teams, and developers to rethink what âuser experienceâ means when the next user of your system may not be human.
â**[Anna Herasymenko](https://www.linkedin.com/in/annaisdesigner/?utm_source=luma)**
Staff Product Designer at Meta, working at the intersection of AI, systems thinking, and product craft.
â**Talk: Vibe Coding for Craft**
AI products can't be designed in static tools. The behavior is the experience â and behavior only shows up when real APIs and real data are in the loop. Designing in Figma is like planning a meal with pre-chopped ingredients. Vibe coding is actually cooking it: discovering the oven runs slow, the recipe has a typo, a spice is missing. That gap between planning and cooking is where craft lives.
âThis talk reframes AI-assisted coding as a repeatable workflow for designing AI experiences: stress-testing edge cases, surfacing the failure modes static design tools hide, and closing the gap between looks right and feels right.
**[Kate Hofmann](https://www.linkedin.com/in/kate-hofmann-ux/?utm_source=luma)**
UX design leader with an enterprise focus and experience building and managing large design teams and multimillion-dollar design portfolios. Worked closely with organisations like SAP, Boeing, Microsoft, UBS, DHL, Flexera.
**Talk: The Last Dashboard. What enterprise software looks like when AI becomes the primary interface.**
For decades we designed enterprise software around the same assumption that users must navigate dashboards, analyse data, interpret reports, and decide what to do next. For ±20 years weâve been obsessed with reducing clicks, then reducing forms, reducing friction.
But as software takes over more of the analysis and decision-support tasks - do users still need interface at all? What is left for UX to design, and what becomes the role of UX?

##### [Kostenlos mit Anmeldung](https://wearevillage.org/shop/queer-bridges-monday/w25-2026/)
Dieser Workshop bietet queeren migrantischen freiberuflichen Personen Werkzeuge fĂŒr ihre professionelle Entwicklung. Unter der Leitung der multidisziplinĂ€ren KĂŒnstlerin Hassandra lernen die Teilnehmenden, LebenslĂ€ufe zu erstellen, Open-Call-Bewerbungen zu meistern, Portfolios aufzubauen und ihre Social-Media-PrĂ€senz zu stĂ€rken. Durch angeleitete Ăbungen entwickeln sie eine klare Sprache, um ihre Vision und Praxis zu artikulieren, Selbstvertrauen zu gewinnen und ihre eigene Stimme im Feld zu finden.
**Queer Bridges: Verbindungen schaffen und Ressourcen fĂŒr LGBTQIA+ Menschen mit Migrationserfahrung bereitstellen.**
Queere Menschen mit Migrationserfahrung in Berlin sehen sich in ihrem tĂ€glichen Leben oft mit besonderen Herausforderungen konfrontiert, die ihren Zugang zu unterstĂŒtzenden Gemeinschaften und integrativen Umgebungen einschrĂ€nken können.
Mit UnterstĂŒtzung der **Deutschen Fernsehlotterie Stiftung**, haben wir das Programm Queer Bridges entwickelt, um diese HĂŒrden zu ĂŒberwinden.

Unser Ziel ist es, ein GefĂŒhl der Zugehörigkeit zur lokalen LGBTQIA+ Community zu fördern und damit eine reibungslose Integration sowie eine verbesserte LebensqualitĂ€t fĂŒr queere Menschen mit Migrations- und/oder Fluchterfahrung zu ermöglichen.

Our martial art is Jutaijutsu, a traditional Japanese one focused on self-defence.

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 youâre running OpenClaw, Hermes, or a completely custom solution, bring your agent and show the community how it works.
Weâre interested in real-world implementations: the problems your agent solves, how you use it day-to-day, how itâs hosted and managed, how you built it, and why youâve 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 youâd like to present, please contact Chris Slee (via meetup) before the event so we can allocate enough time for everyoneâs demonstrations.
Come ready to show what youâve built, discover what others are doing, and maybe find a few ideas worth taking home.
Whether youâre deep in the field or just getting curious, come connect with others building and exploring AI in Columbus.

Claude Code with Unity
A session on using Claude Code, Anthropic's AI coding agent, in real Unity development. We'll cover what coding agents are, where Claude Code fits, and how to apply it to an actual game project.
The format is presentation-style, with live demos and time for questions throughout. After brief scene-setting on coding agents and what makes Claude Code distinct, we'll go problem-driven: demoing it live on a released Unity game and introducing each feature as a solution to a problem we hit.
What to Expect:
* An intro to coding agents and where Claude Code fits
* A live demo on a real Unity project
* Key features as solutions to real problems: đąđ«đ đŽđŁđ€.đđœ, context management, hooks, skills, subagents, and MCP
* Unity-specific pain points, including Domain Reload and MCP caveats
* Putting it together
All experience levels welcome. Food and drinks provided.
*Note: meetup topics may change â check back for the latest details.*
AWS Columbus: Smart Search + AI: An Outcome-Driven Journey
Title: Smart Search + AI: An Outcome-Driven Journey from IDP to a Suite of AI
Register at the Columbus AWS meetup: [https://www.meetup.com/columbus-aws-amazon-web-services-meetup/events/313426379/](https://www.meetup.com/columbus-aws-amazon-web-services-meetup/events/313426379/)
Over a billion documents processed. Millions of Veterans impacted. Hundreds of thousands of employee hours saved. Faster decisions. Greater accuracy. More benefits in the hands of our disabled Veterans.
We created Smart Search, the worldâs largest consumer of Amazon Textract, right when GenAI began reshaping whatâs possible. Since then, weâve built a suite of AIâdriven solutions that transform this data into real, measurable outcomesâaccelerating benefits decisions for our Nationâs Veterans.
Join us for a focused conversation on how an outcomeâdriven approach to AI is helping us boost accuracy, streamline workflows, and deliver faster results for those who have served.
This is a follow up to the AWS re:Invent 2023 "Intelligent Document Processing with Gen AI for Public Sector" presentation.
