Does your LLM speak the same language as you? (DDD Vienna Meshup)
**Does your LLM speak the same language as you?**
*Context, Language & AI in Domain‑Driven Design*
Zutaten allein reichen nicht.
In Domain‑Driven Design (DDD) entscheiden Kontext, gemeinsame Sprache und Abgrenzung über gute Software – und über sinnvolle Nutzung von LLMs im Unternehmen.
In diesem Meetup verbinden wir strategisches DDD, Ubiquitous Language und AI:
* Warum Kontext wichtiger ist als Zutaten (erklärt am italienischen Dinner)
* Warum gemeinsame Sprache kein Glossar, sondern ein Arbeitsinstrument ist
* Wie viel Kontext ein LLM wirklich braucht – und warum unser Team denselben braucht
Wir diskutieren LLMs nicht als Ersatz für Zusammenarbeit, sondern als **Verstärker von gutem Domain‑Wissen**.
**Agenda**
* Quick Intro: Kontext als roter Faden
* Strategisches DDD: Zutaten ≠ Lösung
* Ubiquitous Language: Sprache als Entscheidungsgrundlage
* LLMs im Business: impliziter vs. expliziter Kontext
* Diskussion & Q&A

Does your LLM speak the same language as you? Context, Language & AI in Domain‑Driven Design
Ingredients alone aren't enough.
In Domain‑Driven Design (DDD), context, shared language, and clear boundaries determine good software – and the meaningful use of LLMs in an organization.
In this meetup, we connect strategic DDD, Ubiquitous Language, and AI:
Why context matters more than ingredients (explained through an Italian dinner)
Why shared language isn't a glossary, but a working instrument.
How much context an LLM really needs – and why our team needs the same
We discuss LLMs not as a replacement for collaboration, but as an amplifier of good domain knowledge.

"Direct-Style Concurrency & Resiliency" + "Deterministic, AI-driven dev-flows"
Agenda (preliminary)
18:00 doors open
18:20 welcome
18:30 **A Tour of Ox 1.0: Direct-Style Concurrency and Resiliency**
19:30 break
20:00 **Maybe(!): "Orca: Deterministic, AI-driven development flows"**
20:00 **Maybe(!): "Sandcat: Docker & dev container setup for securely running AI agents"**
21:00 Networking
**A Tour of Ox 1.0: Direct-Style Concurrency and Resiliency**
Ox provides a toolkit for safe concurrency and resiliency for Scala on the JVM. After two years of prototyping, we’re delighted to showcase the final product. With Ox, you can build and deliver direct-style Scala applications today.
In the code-first presentation, we’ll begin with concurrency (including lower-level structured concurrency scopes and higher-level concurrency operators). Next, we’ll proceed to Ox’s approach to error management and type safety in that area. We’ll then explore Ox’s direct-but-reactive streaming library before concluding with its built-in resiliency toolkit.
Software is never finished, so we’ll also share what lies ahead for Ox specifically and our plans for direct-style Scala generally.
**About Adam Warski**
Adam Warski is the co-founder of SoftwareMill and head of R&D at VirtusLab, where he primarily generates code using Java, Scala, Rust and other interesting technologies. He is actively involved in open-source projects, such as Ox, Jox, Tapir, sttp, and others. He has also been a speaker at major conferences, including JavaOne, Devoxx, GeeCON and ScalaDays. In addition to writing closed- and open-source software, he spends his free time exploring various programming-related subjects. Any ideas or insights he gains usually end up on his blog ([https://warski.org/articles](https://warski.org/articles)).
**Maybe(!): "Orca: Deterministic, AI-driven development flows"**
Orca Flow scripts orchestrate coding agents. No need to try to convince the LLM that reviewing code until all review comments are fixed is a good idea - the script will ensure that's the way it will be done. No need to spend tokens on calling a code formatter, switch branches or creating PRs. Orca Flow scripts are written in Scala, and executable using scala-cli. That's the only component you'll need to install - everything else will be downloaded on-the-fly. Orca Flow scripts read like Python, but are type-safe, so you can know that your script will execute just fine. Orca works with Claude & Codex (now), but the plans are much wider than that!
**Maybe(1): "Sandcat: a Docker & dev container setup for securely running AI agents**
Sandcat is a Docker & [dev container](https://containers.dev) setup for securely running AI agents. The environment is sandboxed, with controlled network access and transparent secret substitution. All of this is done while retaining the convenience of working in an IDE like VS Code.
All container traffic is routed through a transparent [mitmproxy](https://mitmproxy.org/) via WireGuard, capturing HTTP/S, DNS, and all other TCP/UDP traffic without per-tool proxy configuration. A straightforward allow/deny list-based engine controls which network requests go through, and a secret substitution system injects credentials at the proxy level so the container never sees real values.

*Speaker:* **[Gunnar Grosch](https://www.linkedin.com/in/gunnargrosch/)**\, Developer Advocate at Sinch \| ex\-AWS \| AWS Serverless Hero
*About the talk:*
Building agentic AI workflows typically requires Step Functions or complex database state machines to handle human delays. AWS Lambda Durable Functions change that. You write sequential code in a single Lambda function that can suspend for days and resume instantly, and you only pay for active compute time. In this session, we will orchestrate Amazon Bedrock conversational agents using the Sinch Conversation API to handle inbound interactions. You will learn how to dispatch AI specialists, use simple callbacks to wait for asynchronous human input, and replace heavy infrastructure boilerplate with native durable execution.
**"How RBI is automating its cloud foundation with AWS Step Functions"**
*Speaker:* **[Roman Jokel](https://www.linkedin.com/in/roman-jokel/),** Cloud Architect (Raiffeisen Informatik)
**/ [Florian Ettinger](https://www.linkedin.com/in/florian-ettinger/),** Solution Architect (AWS)
*About the talk:*
How can AWS Step Functions transform daily cloud operations? Join us to explore how RBI is using workflow orchestration to automate its cloud foundation. We’ll share practical insights from our Cloud Center of Excellence, demonstrating how Step Functions power landing zone operations, simplify automation, speed up deployments and enable scalable cloud governance across the organization.

Travel Paths: Animal movement algorithms
We are pleased to welcome Katrina Brock from Max Planck Society to present an R package for analyzing animal movement data. Join us to explore how R can be put to work in animal behaviour research.
**Travel Paths: Bridging the usability gap in open source animal movement algorithms**
The behavior ecology literature offers a rich library of approaches for finding patterns in animal movement data. While many of the biologists developing these algorithms publish their code, it is rarely optimized for reuse. Even well-designed packages with similar workflows have different interfaces that potential users need to learn one by one. By wrapping these algorithms in a standardized interface, the “Travel Paths” framework reduces researcher toil. Instead of digging through scripts and learning disparate conventions, they can run many methods with just a few functions. The framework is composed of two packages: the trackframe package provides a flexible and interoperable format for input data while the travelpaths package, taking inspiration from parsnip, offers the interface for movement models. In this talk, we’ll discuss how we designed this framework and how it can be leveraged to enable even novice R users to apply a variety of methods to their animal movement data.

Wenn intelligente Agenten außer Kontrolle
**Agentic AI trifft Cybersecurity – Wenn intelligente Agenten außer Kontrolle geraten**
**Die nächste Evolutionsstufe der künstlichen Intelligenz ist bereits da:**
Agentic AI Systeme, die eigenständig planen, Entscheidungen treffen und handeln – oft ohne menschliche Kontrolle. Doch was passiert, wenn genau diese Autonomie zur Gefahr wird?
KI-Agenten, die täuschend echte Phishing-Angriffe erstellen, Sicherheitsmechanismen in Echtzeit umgehen oder Netzwerke wie digitale Schläfer infiltrieren – das ist keine Zukunftsmusik mehr. Es passiert bereits heute.
Bei diesem exklusiven Abend-Event diskutieren zwei Experten an der Schnittstelle von AI und Cybersecurity über die Risiken, Chancen und die Realität autonomer KI-Systeme.
**Dr. Jeannette Gorzala**, Gründerin und CEO von ACT AI NOW sowie Vice Chair des AI Boards der österreichischen Bundesregierung, engagiert sich aktiv für AI Literacy, den European AI Act und die verantwortungsvolle Gestaltung von Künstlicher Intelligenz in Europa. Darüber hinaus bringt sie ihre Expertise als Mitglied der GPAIM Working Groups des EU AI Office der Europäischen Kommission in die europäische KI-Strategie und Regulierung ein.
NEOB Technology GmbH Gründer und CEO **Ed Prinz** gibt Einblicke in moderne Agentic-AI-Architekturen – von autonomen Tools und Multi-Step-Reasoning bis hin zu realen Anwendungen im Bereich Voice AI und Business Automation. Dabei geht es auch um die entscheidende Frage: Wo verschwimmt die Grenze zwischen hilfreichen und potenziell gefährlichen KI-Agenten?
CyberTrap CEO **Adi Reschenhofer** zeigt, wie moderne Deception-Technologien Angreifer in die Falle locken – mit Honeypots, Decoys und KI-gestützten Täuschungsmechanismen. Wenn KI gegen KI kämpft, verändert sich das Spielfeld der Cybersicherheit grundlegend.
Gemeinsam sprechen sie über Themen, die Unternehmen und CISOs zunehmend beschäftigen:
• Kann man einem KI-Agenten vertrauen, den man nicht selbst entwickelt hat?
• Wie verteidigt man sich gegen Angriffe, die lernen und sich weiterentwickeln?
• Ist die Cybersecurity-Branche schnell genug – oder sind Angreifer bereits voraus?

Humming Traditions: SODAI - Straw, Form & Wind
Step into a slow, mindful morning and discover Sodai, traditional Lithuanian straw mobiles that once filled homes with balance, harmony, and quiet beauty. In this workshop, we will explore the geometry of air, learning how to prepare and string straw into delicate symmetrical forms that sway softly with every breeze. Piece by piece, your hands will follow the same patterns that generations before us used to invite order and peace into their homes.
🌿Limited spots. The group is limited to 8 people. You can secure your place by purchasing a ticket through the link:
https://doobeedoo-goodies.sumupstore.com/produkt/humming-traditions-sodai-straw-form-and-wind
🌿Date: 3rd of June
🌿Time: 09:30—12:00 (it might take longer, depending on group tempo)
🌿Location: DooBeeDoo Goodies Atelier (Märzstraße 86, 1150 Vienna)
An immersive workshop for quiet hands, patient minds, and those who enjoy the slow rhythm of creation.
You’ll learn the basic techniques of straw preparation, stringing, and construction, and experience how a simple natural material can transform into something light, precise, and full of meaning. Together, we’ll move through a calm, meditative process, each gesture connecting thought, breath, and creation in quiet balance.
By the end, you’ll leave not only with your own handmade Sodas, a timeless ornament carrying both heritage and your creative touch, but also with the knowledge, focus, and stillness that this ancient craft awakens. It feels less like finishing an object and more like completing a gentle ritual of patience and peace.
To keep the experience personal and attentive, the group will be small and intimate, space is limited, so that every participant can receive individual guidance and care.
This workshop invites you to slow down, focus, and reconnect — with your hands, your thoughts, and the quiet poetry of simple materials. No previous experience is needed, only patient hands, a calm mind, and an eye for quiet detail.
🌿🌿🌿
Humming Traditions is a series of creative workshops that explore the living, breathing essence of cultural practices. Each event invites participants to connect with ancient techniques, natural materials, and artistic expression in a hands-on, immersive experience.
The series celebrates the quiet resonance of tradition, the subtle vibrations, textures, and forms that have carried meaning through centuries. Whether through sound, movement, or craft, Humming Traditions is about experiencing culture as a living, dynamic, and tactile art form.
Each workshop stands on its own yet shares a common thread: creativity, mindfulness, and a connection to nature and heritage. Participants leave with newly learned skills, a calm mind, and a deeper appreciation for cultural artistry.

Stop Guessing: A Product Person's Guide to AI Adoption
## 🤝 Host Information
A co-hosted event by ProductTank Columbus & Women in Product Columbus
💡 About the Workshop
AI adoption is stalling across organizations — not because of a lack of motivation or tools, but because it's fundamentally a behavior design challenge.
This hands-on workshop applies proven Behavior Design models and methods to help you move from a vague organizational wish to boost AI adoption to 3-5 concrete, testable interventions you can act on starting tomorrow.
Whether you're a product manager, on a product team, or just someone trying to get AI to actually stick at work, you'll leave with a clear picture of what's worth focusing on, what to ignore, and how to drive real, sustained adoption — no guesswork required.
🛠️ What to Bring
Laptop: Fully charged and ready to go.
AI Assistant: Have your favorite AI assistant pulled up. (Dom will be using Claude, but feel free to use whichever assistant you prefer!)
🍕 Logistics & Perks
Food & Drink: Pizza and drinks provided!
