*This is an in-person event. Successful Registration is subject to approval.*
**ABOUT**
**In association with [Women's Dev Singapore](https://www.meetup.com/women-devs-sg/), [Zenika](https://www.linkedin.com/company/zenikasingapore/) presents -** An engaging session exploring what it means to lead, build and adapt when AI becomes part of everyday work.
AI is transforming how teams operate, make decisions and build products.
**Yet the biggest challenges remain deeply human:**
* Creating conditions where **people can do their best work** — with high support and high challenge in equal measure
* **Building products that solve real problems**, not just ship solutions
* **Engaging with AI** and change with curiosity rather than fear
This session explores the convergence of three forces reshaping how value gets created today: **leadership, product thinking, and AI**. Through the lens of modern product teams and real-world experience, **[Jolyn](https://www.linkedin.com/in/jolyn-c/)** will make the case that these are no longer separate conversations.
Participants will walk away with three honest questions every leader and builder should keep asking themselves:
* **Lead** — *Am I creating conditions where people can do their best work?*
* **Build** — *Am I solving real problems or just shipping solutions?*
* **Adapt** — *Am I engaging with change with curiosity or with fear?*
The future belongs not to those with the most information, nor to those who fear disruption — but to those who stay human at the centre of it all.
Join us for an evening of honest insights, practical frameworks and real-world stories for navigating the future of leadership and product in an AI-enabled world.
📍 **Venue:**
This meetup is brought to you by Zenika Singapore, 20 Bendemeer Rd, #03-10 BS Bendemeer Centre, Singapore 339914.

Human at the Core: Leading, Building and Thriving in the Age of AI
**Register here:** https://luma.com/fongxt81
🚀 What does it mean to lead, build, and adapt in an AI-enabled world?
Women Devs Singapore is excited to collaborate with Zenika for an insightful evening exploring the intersection of leadership, product thinking, and AI with our guest speaker, Jolyn Chuah.
As AI becomes part of everyday work, the questions that matter most are still deeply human:
✨ Are we creating environments where people can do their best work?
✨ Are we solving real problems or simply shipping solutions?
✨ Are we approaching change with curiosity rather than fear?
In this session, Jolyn will share practical frameworks and real-world experiences from product management, systems thinking, and data analytics to help leaders and builders navigate an increasingly AI-driven landscape while keeping people at the centre.
You'll leave with three powerful questions to reflect on:
🔹 Lead — Am I creating conditions where people can do their best work?
🔹 Build — Am I solving real problems or just shipping solutions?
🔹 Adapt — Am I engaging with change with curiosity or with fear?
Whether you're a developer, product professional, team lead, or simply curious about the future of work, this conversation is for you.
📅 Join us for an evening of honest insights, practical takeaways, and meaningful discussions.

**ABSTRACT**
**From Curiosity to Capability: Build Your First Home Lab**
A home lab is a personal computing environment you build and run yourself — a sandbox to experiment, break things, and learn. In this workshop, we explore why building one at home is one of the most practical ways to develop real cybersecurity skills, bridging the gap between textbook knowledge and hands-on capability. We will walk through how home lab concepts map directly to professional cybersecurity environments, and demystify the core terminologies you will encounter along the way — SSH, NAT, VLANs, IP and DNS, virtualisation, Docker, and remote access. Whether you are a student, a career switcher, or an IT professional looking to go deeper, this workshop gives you the foundation to start building with confidence.
**LEARNING OBJECTIVES**
* Homelab foundations + Quick Threat Modeling
* Lets build a simple DNS lab
* Monitoring logs
* What's next?
**SET UP REQUIREMENTS**
Bring your own laptops (and laptop chargers)
* Install VMware
* Download Proxmox Virtual Environment (VE) iso file and install in VMware
* Make sure to use NAT Network Mode when installing Proxmox as a guest VM on VMWare

Introducing The Best Group 🎾
What if a tennis class became the easiest way to meet new people?
**The Best Group** combines structured, level-based tennis group classes with an optional social matching experience.
Here's how it works:
🎾 Join a tennis group class with players of a similar level
🤝 Having joined a class, you can choose to be matched with **three other people you've never met before** for dinner.
The difference? **Everyone at the table will already have completed a tennis group class with The Best Group.**
Instead of meeting complete strangers with nothing in common, everyone shares the same experience, making conversations feel far more natural from the very beginning.
Think of it as a Timeleft-style social experience—but with a built-in shared connection before you ever sit down for dinner.

Shipping AI Agents in the Enterprise ft. Prudential & AWS Speakers
Everyone is building agents. Far fewer have gotten them past the pilot and into the hands of real users inside a large organisation, where the constraints are different and the room for error is smaller. This edition of The Agentic AI Club brings together speakers who have done that, sharing first-hand what it took to move agentic AI from a working prototype into the enterprise.
## **What You'll Take Away**
* What it takes to move an agent past the pilot and into everyday use across a large organisation
* Where enterprise realities reshape the build: security reviews, legacy systems, procurement, and sign-off
* Which design choices survived production, and which ones fell over
* A sharper sense of where enterprise agentic AI is paying off right now
## **Agenda**
4:00 PM — Doors open · Registration
4:10 PM — Welcome by The Agentic AI Club
4:15 PM — Speaker sessions

What does the Church-Turing thesis actually mean?
**ANNOUNCEMENT: [Venue change] SQ Collective has generously offered to host the venue for this session for free. It is only appropriate that we allocate some capacity to them (via a Luma event). This is a chance for folks in the AI builder community to participate in our group’s philosophy practice, and for us to broaden our audience within that community. If you have already signed up via Meetup, there is no need to double-register through Luma, should the Luma event be made public.**
“You insist that there is something that a machine can't do. If you will tell me precisely what it is that a machine cannot do, then I can always make a machine which will do just that.”
—John von Neumann, in a talk at the Institute for Advanced Study at Princeton, 1948
“Everything is computer!”
– Donald J. Trump, sometime in 2025
What is computation? These days, it seems more provocative to stipulate what *isn’t* computation. For instance, to suggest that the brain can be functionally anything other than a kind of computer is suspect in the current technological zeitgeist. It seems self-evident that any system of information processing to achieve some output can be explicated in terms of computation. At the foundation of this conviction is the Church-Turing thesis, which both gave a logical definition to and circumscribed the bounds of computation in the form of the Universal Turing Machine, “a most general formulation of machine” (Alan Newell 1980). The idea that the Universal Turing Machine is an abstract design template that can encompass any kind of information-processing system has led some to extend the scope of the thesis to physics itself: “any finite physical system can be simulated by Universal Turing Machines” (David Deutsch 1985).
What do we make of such ideas? Instead of fumbling in the accreted fog of the present, a quiet philosophical dialectic was already underway at the time Alan Turing demonstrated Universal Turing Machines in his seminal paper *On Computable Numbers* in 1936. Ludwig Wittgenstein was a contemporary of Turing’s, and made a number of keen observations in the years that followed\*. In particular, Wittgenstein anticipated readings of the Church-Turing thesis such as the above as resulting from an uncritical acceptance of some inferences within Turing’s demonstration. In this session, we will recount the Church-Turing thesis, its various interpretations, the Wittgensteinian response, and what it all means. Join us to discuss and re-examine the notion of computation, in the hopes of coming to a clearer understanding of it.
The format of this session will be a presentation followed by an open-ended discussion.
*Compiled in Remarks on the Foundations of Mathematics. By L. Wittgenstein

Stop Guessing: How to Measure and Improve LLM Outputs
Most people use LLMs by feel: ask a question, read the answer, decide whether it “seems good,” and move on.
That works for casual use. It does not work when you are building software, automating workflows, writing important documents, or relying on AI for anything that needs to be repeatable.
In this talk, we’ll look at how to improve and evaluate the inputs and outputs of LLMs using practical measurement techniques. We’ll cover how prompt changes affect results, how to compare outputs, how to build simple evaluation sets, and how math-based methods like similarity scoring can help you move beyond guesswork.
This will be beginner-friendly, so even if you don't know anything about AI, you should get something out of it. However, this will be a little more technical than our intro talks. You do not need to be an AI researcher, but programmers and technically curious attendees will get a lot out of it.
We’ll cover:
* Why “it looks good” is not enough
* How to improve prompts by changing the input, context, and constraints
* How to compare LLM outputs more systematically
* Basic evaluation techniques for accuracy, consistency, and usefulness
* How embeddings, cosine similarity, and scoring can help evaluate results
* Where automated evaluation works — and where humans still need to stay in the loop
By the end, you’ll have a practical mental model for treating LLMs less like magic and more like systems you can test, measure, and improve.
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.
