30th Belgium NLP Meetup
About this event
Thirty meetups! It feels surreal to think back to the very first Belgium NLP Meetup in 2016, when our opening talk posed the question: is there a market for NLP? Safe to say, almost ten years later we have our answer.
Our thirtieth event will take place on Thursday June 4th in the offices of Ravical in Ghent, an AI company that discovers revenue opportunities in documents and helps full-service firms act on them.
As usual, doors open at 7pm for pizza, talks are planned between 7.30pm and 9pm, and after that there's more time for networking and drinks.
The first talk of the evening is already confirmed, with two more presentations to be announced in the coming weeks. Stay tuned!
Safe natural-language-to-code execution to level up your AI product
Nico Gelders (Ravical)
Generative AI tools struggle when users ask data-heavy questions, and function calling alone doesn't offer a reliable solution. Nico will show how compiling natural language into sandboxed TypeScript instead (using typed tool schemas as grammar) enables parallel API chaining and produces high-quality, reproducible artefacts. Expect practical lessons from running NL-to-code pipelines in production, including where this pattern works and where it breaks down.
