**Anything Goes SHOW! Special Festival** **Opening: "Bon Temps, Improvised Vampire Story"** IMPROV CRAZY JAM SHOW. Friday 22 May 2026 - 19:30 TICKETS: CHF 10 **Dress up if you dare - Nosferatu "The 20's"** **Anything Goes** is an improv night jam with a simple concept: invite all the Zurich improvisers to perform together, lovingly sabotage their comfort zones, and see what happens. **We host, we create the chaos, and the performers bravely jump into it without knowing who they’ll play with, what they’ll be given, or why they agreed to this in the first place.** Come watch brilliant improvisers make bold choices, terrible choices, and somehow turn both into comedy. Afterwards, we all have a drink together, because the night continues. Improv is better when shared, and chaos is best enjoyed together! ***It's an event with an audience. Please, understand that if you register, you are expected to commit. If you need to cancel, you will inform us at least one week in advance.

In this session we'll explore strategies to protect our codebases through unit and integration testing, documentation, and code review along with additional ways of providing context and guard rails to our AI agents as they carry out the work we've assigned them to do. By the time we're done, you'll have a firm grasp of the problem and understand some helpful options for protecting your codebase from vibe coding mishaps getting YOLOed into prod. **YouTube Link** TBD

Most people use AI like a search box: they type one sentence, hope for the best, and get frustrated when the answer is generic, wrong, or useless. But getting better results from tools like ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and other AI systems is not about memorizing magic prompts. It is about learning how to give the AI better context. In this beginner-friendly session, we’ll break down how to make AI dramatically more useful by improving the way you communicate with it. You’ll learn how to give clearer instructions, provide examples, set constraints, ask for better output formats, and use follow-up questions to turn a mediocre answer into a genuinely useful one. We’ll cover practical techniques you can use immediately for work, learning, writing, coding, planning, research, and everyday problem solving. We’ll also touch on why these same ideas show up in more advanced AI systems, including RAG, agents, evaluations, and AI workflows. No technical background required. Bring your curiosity, your questions, and maybe one real task you wish AI was better at helping you with. **What you’ll learn:** * Why “better prompting” is really about better context * How to structure requests so AI gives more useful answers * How to use examples, constraints, and output formats * How to iterate when the first answer is not good enough * How these skills connect to more advanced AI workflows This meetup is for anyone who wants to move beyond basic ChatGPT usage and start getting more practical value out of AI. 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.
