đ HFH Book Club â First Meeting "Empire of AI" by Karen Hao
**Fellow Humans, we're starting a book club!**
We focus on understanding what's actually happening on the crowded stage of AI: the companies driving the AI race, the decisions being made on our behalf, and what it all means for the rest of us.
Every few weeks, we'll choose and read one book together and talk about it. Bring your **thoughts**, your **questions**, your **highlighted passages**, and your **honest reactions**.
**Our first pick: *Empire of AI* by Karen Hao**, who has worked for The Wall Street Journal and contributes to The Atlantic. *She argues that the pursuit of an artificial superintelligence has become its own figurative paper clip factory, devouring too much energy, minerals and human labour. She portrays OpenAI and other companies that make up the fastâgrowing A.I. sector as a âmodern-day colonial world order.â* (excerpt from the NYT review)
**What to expect:**
A relaxed, semi-structured conversation (around 2 hours).
We'll dig into the themes together, share what stood out, and connect the ideas to what we're actually experiencing.
**No expertise required, just read the book and show up curious.**
**Why a book club?** Because some things can't be captured in a headline or a 60-second video. The questions AI raises for our work, our relationships, and our futures deserve more than a scroll. They deserve a real conversation with real people, and a book gives us common ground to start from.
**After this first Meetup, you help define what's next!** Suggest books that have changed how you think about AI, technology, or what it means to be Human. This is your club.
**No tech background needed. Just curiosity and willingness to think out loud with fellow critical thinkers.**
**Join our [LinkedIn Group](https://www.linkedin.com/groups/10088542/) and [Substack](https://humanfuturehub.substack.com/)** for articles, perspectives, and resources between events.
See you there, Your HFH Team!
**Humans, together. Nobody is left behind.** â¤ď¸

Mavericks Bouldering â A Casual Climb & Hangout in Berlin
A small NEXUS gathering built around movement rather than discussion alone.
This is for high-bandwidth Mavericks who spend most of their time in conceptual thought and need some physical counterweight. Why bouldering? Because itâs deliberate: short problems, full focus, and immediate feedback. Youâre on the wall, solving something tangible. The mental noise drops instantly!
Conversations happen naturally in between climbs. No pressure, you move at your own pace. Some exchanges stay light. Others go deep. Both are fine. This is not about athletic achievement. Itâs about presence, recalibration, and being around people who donât require you to shrink or translate yourself.
Come as you are. Try some bouldering problems. Rest when needed, and engage where it makes sense.
**Bring comfortable clothes and climbing shoes if you have them (rentals are available at the gym).**
*Registration equals commitment. If you sign up, you show up. Read the group description first and decide consciously. For context about NEXUS, visit our* ***[website](https://thenexusformula.com)*** *and* ***[newsletter](https://news.thenexusformula.com)****.*

Productive Sunday Morning - Co-Working Session (Deep Work, all work welcome)
Hey everyone!
Iâm organising a co-working + socialising session for all of us who like to work on something (e.g. our own project, freelance or remote work) but don't feel like sitting alone at home. đ
To ensure that we have both **socialising** AND **working**, we will be using the so called âPomodoroâ technique:
**50min of deep work** (silent), followed by **10min of break** to socialise. Then repeat! If you get into flow, you're also welcome to skip the breaks.
Itâs an effective way to stay focused - you can read more about it [here](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pomodoro_Technique).
Anyone from any background is welcome, whatever project you are working on or whatever is your personal background.
I (the host) speak English and German, so either is fine :-)
ââââââââââââââââââ-
AGENDA:
* **15min Intro**
* Get to know everyone, talk about what you will work on today
* **Pomodoro Session** (3x) - *Each Pomodoro session consists* *of...*
* ...**50min** of uninterrupted âdeep workâ (no talking, no interruptions, no phones)
* ...**10min** of break: share your progress with others, talk about what you are stuck on etc.
* Repeat
* Conclude and celebrate your progress
Share your progress, socialise and get to know others đ
ââââ
We'll be at the Social Hub Berlin (they have a food menu in case you get hungry). The structured part will end at 2:30pm, but you're welcome to stay longer, go for lunch together, or leave earlier. See you there đŠľ
**\*\*We'll reserve the long table. Please update your RSVP in advance if you can't attend!\*\***

Screenwriting Focus Group | Filmmakers & Movie Nerds
**đŹ Screenwriters' Meetup Invitation đŹ**
This meetup is for anyone passionate about storytellingâwhether youâre a screenwriter, filmmaker, producer, or someone with a great idea looking for the right collaborators. Whether youâre just starting out or deep into your screenplay, this is the perfect space to create, collaborate, and refine your work.
Weâre trying a new format for this session. The theme will be âLoneliness in a Connected World.â
The session is structured in two parts. During the first hour, weâll collectively explore the topic and gather as many perspectives, experiences, observations, and ideas as possible. In the second hour, weâll use this material to shape a story framework, focusing on a basic three-act structure and clarifying the core elements of a potential narrative.
What I ask from you is simple: before coming, take some time to reflect on the theme.
What is your personal relationship to loneliness in a highly connected, digital world? How does it feel? What experiencesâyour own or those of people you knowâcome to mind? You donât need to write anything down in advance. Just come with a clear point of view and a few thoughts youâve already considered.
The goal is shared thinking, not preparation or finished concepts.

Data & Analytics Wednesday - Google Analytics Alternatives
**Google Analytics Alternatives**
Is it finally time to make the switch away from Google Analytics? Two-and-a-half years ago Jason Packer asked this question at Columbus Web Analytics Wednesday.
Since then: Googleâs Universal Analytics has been sunset, weâve changed our name to Columbus Data & Analytics Wednesday, and Jason has released two editions of his book âGoogle Analytics Alternativesâ.
Fresh off the release of the 2nd edition of his book, we thought it was time to re-open this conversation. While people love to complain about it, GAâs market share has remained relatively constant (at least in the United States). Why is that? You wonât find any complaints about GA4 in this talk, but rather an overview of whatâs currently available in the market and how to frame your decision-making process.
Weâll also be giving out some free copies of Jasonâs book! So even if youâve got a âGA4Lyfeâ tattoo (no judgement), thereâs free books to go with the free pizza and beer.
Thanks to our 2026 sponsors:
