Zurich Language AI meetup #21
Zurich Language AI meetup #21
**Update: We’re fully booked and running a waitlist.** Get ready for the 21st edition of our community event for language AI and NLP experts and enthusiasts – with a **NEW LOCATION** at [Riffraff Kino/Bar](https://maps.app.goo.gl/g61d4Zmmjj7iCcu59)! 🧠 **3 straight-to-the-point talks** by experienced experts 🥂 **Casual networking** over drinks and snacks 📍 **NEW location:** [Riffraff Kino/Bar](https://maps.app.goo.gl/g61d4Zmmjj7iCcu59), Neugasse 57, 8005 Zurich 🎟 **Capacity:** 100 seats **Schedule** 6:30 pm – Doors open and registration 7:00 pm – Presentations 🔹 **Overcorrection: Why LLMs Can't *Just* Proofread – and How to Fix It** *[Heejin Do](https://www.linkedin.com/in/heejin-do-969bb3231/), Postdoctoral Fellow at ETH AI Center* LLMs often over-edit text, sacrificing original meaning for fluency. This talk introduces PoCO, a two-stage method that harnesses 'intentional overcorrection' to catch more errors while using smaller models to restore accuracy and precision. **🔹 Why Translation AI Fails (Even Though It Works)** *[Christian Weih-Sum](https://www.linkedin.com/in/christianweihsum/), Managing Director at foryouandyourcustomers* The quality of modern translation AI is no longer the main issue. In practice, deployments fall short not because of models, but because of processes, roles, and decision-making. This impulse explores the non-technical challenges that decide whether translation AI becomes a competitive advantage—or another missed opportunity. **🔹 Privacy vs Utility: The Anonymisation Tradeoff in Language AI Workflows** *[Michael Anthony Mazourik](https://www.linkedin.com/in/mazourik/), Founder and CEO at AI4Privacy* Every AI workflow leaks data it shouldn't. But most anonymisation tools either destroy context or miss entities entirely. To tackle this, AI4privacy built p5y, an open-source privacy framework modelled on i18n, that treats privacy as a language-level translation task. The talk covers reversible masking, synthetic identity generation, and policy-driven access control in production translation pipelines. No theory, just live examples of what actually works. 8:00 pm – Drinks reception -- 📸 Please note: Photos will be taken at the meetup and may be used on Supertext’s communication channels.

Ergänzende Infos: Salsa! Kein anderer Tanz hat in den letzten Jahren eine derart steile Erfolgskurve aufs Parkett gelegt. Die Salsa weckt Sehnsüchte nach der Karibik und versprüht wahre Lebensfreude. Salsa wird paarweise getanzt. Ein Partner führt, der andere wird geführt. Bei uns werden hauptsächlich Kurse im kubanischen Stil unterrichtet, der Salsa Cubana, welcher seinen Ursprung in Kuba hat. Die kubanische Salsa wirkt eher spielerisch, rhythmisch und lebendig und setzt sich aus unterschiedlichen lateinamerikanischen Rhythmen und Tänzen zusammen. Das wesentliche Merkmal des kubanischen Stils sind die Drehungen des Tanzpaares um einen gemeinsamen Mittelpunkt und das Kernstück des Salsa Cubana, die Rueda de Casino. Der Name Rueda rührt daher, dass alle beteiligten Paare einen Kreis bilden, wobei sie jeweils synchron die gleichen Figuren tanzen. Bedingt durch Partnerwechsel, die jeweils zu den getanzten Figuren gehören, dreht sich die Rueda bzw. das Rad. Der Kurs für blutige Anfänger oder für Leute, die sich mit den Basic-Elementen noch unsicher fühlen.

Was kommt nach der Arbeit? KI, Sinn und die Zukunft unserer Gesellschaft
Was kommt nach der Arbeit? KI, Sinn und die Zukunft unserer Gesellschaft
Künstliche Intelligenz und Robotik stehen erst am Anfang – und doch ist absehbar, dass sie nicht nur einzelne Berufe, sondern ganze Vorstellungen von Arbeit, Leistung und gesellschaftlichem Wert verändern werden. Wenn Maschinen sowohl geistige als auch körperliche Tätigkeiten übernehmen können, stellt sich eine grundlegende Frage: **Was bedeutet es dann noch, Mensch zu sein – und wie organisieren wir Gesellschaft und Wirtschaft?** In dieser Diskussionsrunde wollen wir weniger über Technik sprechen, sondern über **gesellschaftliche Folgen**: * Welche Werte würden in einer Post-AI-Welt zählen? * Ist eine Gesellschaft ohne ökonomischen Zwang wünschenswert? * Wie sieht eine mögliche **Post-Work- oder Post-AI-Gesellschaft** aus * Wie verhält es sich mit Macht, Verteilung von Eigentum und Sinn Geht uns die Arbeit aus – oder gewinnen wir Freiheit? Stehen wir vor sozialem Zerfall oder vor einer neuen Form von Wohlstand? Und sind wir kulturell überhaupt darauf vorbereitet? Diese Diskussion richtet sich an alle, die sich für **Gesellschaft, Politik, Ethik und Zukunftsfragen** interessieren – ganz ohne technisches Vorwissen.

What If Your AI Could Be a Team? - Chad Green
**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 You will need to scan your ID at the door to get a visitor badge. **Abstract** GitHub Copilot is powerful, but what if you could scale from a solo AI assistant to an entire team of specialized agents working in parallel? This session introduces Squad: an open-source framework for multi-agent orchestration that lets you define teams of AI agents with specific roles, responsibilities, and expertise. We'll progress from Copilot basics to the Copilot CLI, explore how Agents add autonomy, and see how Instructions and Skills let you customize agent behavior. Then, the climax: a live demo where a Squad team of 3 agents (Lead, Developer, Tester) stands up and builds a working application in real-time, showcasing true multi-agent collaboration. Whether you're new to AI or exploring how to scale your use of Copilot, this session will show you what's possible when agents work as a team. **YouTube Link** TBD

Connected Westerville Night of Networking!
Connected Westerville Night of Networking!
**Connected Westerville Night of Networking** *April Edition: The Introduction Economy* You've been to the networking events. You've done the small talk. Collected the cards. Forgotten the names. And walked out feeling like you just wasted two hours of your life. The problem isn't you. It's the format. Most networking events put you in a room and tell you to figure it out. So everyone defaults to elevator pitches and business talk, and nothing real gets built. Here's the truth about networking that most people miss: Your network isn't just who you know. It's who thinks of you when they're talking to someone else. *That's* The Introduction Economy. And it only works when relationships are real. There's a reason people who come once keep coming back. It starts with seven minutes that feel nothing like networking. Then we open it up. Free networking. More conversations. More momentum. This is a room full of corporate professionals, entrepreneurs, business owners, creatives, and career builders in the Westerville and Columbus area. The mix is the magic. You might never do business with everyone you meet tonight. But someone in this room will think of *you.* **By name**. So, the next time someone needs exactly what you do, you get the recommendation. **April 14th. RSVP now.** **When:** Tuesday\, April 14th \| 6:15 PM \-\- 8:00 PM **Where:** Vineyard Community Center \| 6000 Cooper Rd\, Westerville\, OH 43081
