📅 Week 6: Monitor and evaluate your LLM application

This event is part of our seven-week AI Engineering program, where we build an end-to-end AI application step by step and present our finished projects during Demo Day in Week 7.

This week, we’ll focus on understanding how our LLM application behaves after deployment and how to measure whether its outputs are actually useful.

• Monitor and debug LLM calls with Langfuse tracing.
• Manage and version prompts with Langfuse Prompt Management.
• Introduce the main concepts behind LLM evaluation.
• Write focused unit tests for predictable application behavior.
• Build evaluation datasets from representative examples.
• Add human annotations and feedback using Langfuse scores.
• Build an LLM-as-a-judge evaluator

By the end of the 7 week cycle, you should have a working AI application in your own GitHub repository and practical experience with AI pipelines, APIs, databases, retrieval, evaluation and deployment.
You are welcome to follow the shared project or apply the weekly concepts to your own project.

✨ Who is this for?
Anyone interested in transitioning towards AI engineering.
No previous LLM or AI engineering experience is required. However, I recommend some basic programming experiences or be to help with your first build session.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) conference in Berlin, Germany

3-month art & tech winter residency in Berlin-Mitte or online. Makerspace, mentorship, showcases. No experience needed. 9 Nov–31 Jan

For more information, check your website : https://www.schoolofma.org/programs/p/fall2026-creating-community-solidarity-thru-art-tech

We are inviting thoughtful, creative humans (like you!) in Berlin and beyond to come together for the next three months both on- and off- line to learn, play, think, and create together. Come explore art, tech, design, political inquiry and human connection on zoom, or in our makerspace, and studio on the top floor of the historic ACUD Kunsthaus, the last surviving independent art and culture space from the 1990 reunification era in Berlin-Mitte.

This is the program we’ve been dreaming of for years! We’re opening our doors and inviting creative emerging artists, humans with innovative and intelligent minds, and anyone who is curious to come explore new topics, develop and expand your practice, and learn and teach things you’ve only dreamed of learning and teaching, as you wrestle out the courage to begin something new.

We’ll support you in these endeavors while encouraging introspection, curiosity, hands-on exploration, and the enthusiasm and confidence to say something with your work. No prior tech experience necessary.

This is an open-ended program, more of an indoor winter camp for adults interested in exploration and creative life changes. Some afternoons there'll be a handful of people quietly (or not so quietly) working on projects; on potluck nights and some eves, the space may be fully alive. Come as often as you can!

• Our studio and makerspace located at ACUD in Berlin, Mitte, will be open on weekdays from 13:00 to 20:00 and on weekends from 10:00 to 20:00. On special event nights, we'll stay open until 23:00 (all times are Berlin time)
• Opportunities to run a talk, workshop or mini-class on something you know
• Weekly community potlucks
• Classrooms you can reserve for knowledge exchange
• Onsite materials and tools: 3D printers, electronics, hand tools, a sewing machine, cameras, recorders and more
• Mentorship and support

• The ability to schedule talks, workshops and other events on Zoom
• An online forum for exchanging ideas, sharing knowledge, and group discussions
• A mentor, assigned once the program begins, available for one-on-one check-ins if you feel stuck
• If you're able to come to Berlin at some point during the three months, you can join in person at no extra cost

• Opportunities to exhibit your work IRL (see details below)
• Weekly prompts to inspire your creative output and lead you towards self-reflection and discovery, plus regular interactions with others doing the same
• Guest speakers on topics relating to art, technology, and society, with questions, interaction and discussion following, open to everyone in the program
• A dedicated online forum to share work and connect with the whole group

During this three-month program, participants will have the opportunity to showcase work in two key moments:

• 6. December: A visual showcase in collaboration with Berlin School of Sound taking place at Studio dB Berlin.
• January 2027: A group exhibition in our Make-Believe Studio during transmediale Vorspiel (end of month, date tbd)

We are offering a limited number of reduced fee solidarity tickets for this program for those facing financial hardships. These allow participants to pay a reduced fee and are reserved for women, BIPOC, and LGBTQ+ who otherwise would be unable to attend.

All the information is here. You can also buy tickets directly from our website, and apply for a solidarity ticket there. https://www.schoolofma.org/programs/p/fall2026-creating-community-solidarity-thru-art-tech

Topic: Get Better, Bill Less: The AI Paradox of Software Consultancies
Many software companies make their money by selling developer and consultant hours. AI is squeezing that model from two sides.

First, clients need fewer hours. Some build things themselves now, and others turn to competitors who deliver faster and cheaper.

Second: if you improve and ship the same software in half the time, you also bill half the hours. In the short term, your revenue drops as a reward for getting better. In the long term, a company that refuses to improve gets eaten by its competitors.

So how does a company that sells software development survive when software development gets cheaper? Do we change how we price, what we sell, or who we sell to? Or is the hourly model simply finished?

What to Expect:

• A concise, 5-10 minute expert presentation introducing us to the nuances of the topic.
• Engage in insightful discussions with fellow participants in breakout groups, exploring diverse experiences and practices.
• Dive into prepared questions designed to challenge and expand your perspective on the topic.
• A fantastic opportunity to network with like-minded professionals and enthusiasts passionate about software development and team building.

Broadening Our Discussions:
We explore a wide range of topics, including Extreme Programming (XP), agile management methods, lean theory, career management, programming katas, and other areas related to software development. Whether you're new to software, a seasoned practitioner, or an expert, your insights and experiences are valued here!

Event Details:
We'll gather from 7:00 PM, officially start the session at 7:15 PM, and take a break at 8:30 PM to decide the topic for our next session. Don't miss this chance to learn, share, and connect!

Visual retrieval is moving beyond text. Join us for two technical talks: teaching models to search documents by treating pages as images, including the problem of imperfect labels in training, and using intent detection to build image discovery in a fashion AI assistant. Pizza and drinks on us — stick around after for networking.
✍️ RSVP soon — capacity is limited!

📅 Date and Time
Wednesday, November 11, 2026 from 18:00-20:45

📍 Location: Hedwig-Wachenheim-Straße 7, 10243 Berlin
BHW Auditorium (1st floor), Zalando SE
📝 Agenda
18:00 – Doors open, arrivals and check-in
18:15 – Welcoming and open session
18:30 – Teaching Models to Search Documents: What If the “Wrong” Answer Is Right? by Saba Sturua, Senior AI Research Engineer @ Elastic
How do we teach models to search PDFs with tables, charts, and complex layouts? I’ll introduce visual document retrieval and explore how larger models can help train smaller search models, including why useful answers can be mistaken for wrong ones during training. This work is part of the research behind our next generation of Jina embedding models.
19:00 – Q&A and quick break
19:15 – From Conversation to Visual Search: Building Image Discovery for Zalando AI Assistant by Inanda Menezes, Principal Software Engineer @ Zalando
How can a fashion AI assistant understand a customer's intent from visual input? In this talk, we’ll explore how we built image discovery for Zalando’s Assistant, considering the intent detection to support different use cases, from finding similar products to getting fashion advice. We’ll dive into how we connect these intents to the right processing and retrieval strategies, and share the key challenges.
19:45 – Q&A, pizza, drinks & networking

Software architecture conference in Berlin, Germany

Artificial Intelligence (AI) conference in Berlin, Germany and Online

Artificial Intelligence (AI) conference in Berlin, Germany

Just before the iSAQB Software Architecture Gathering 2026 kicks off in Berlin, we're getting the community together for a special pre-SAG evening at the JetBrains office!
Whether you're attending SAG or simply interested in software architecture, Java and the impact of GenAI on software delivery, you're very welcome to join us.
🎤 Chris Richardson
Fast Outer and Inner Loops: Prerequisites for GenAI-Powered Software Delivery
GenAI coding agents have the potential to rapidly make changes. But an agent does more than edit files: it makes design decisions, runs tests, pushes changes through the deployment pipeline into production, and analyzes the results.
These steps form the same two loops that human developers use: the outer change-deploy-analyze loop and the inner edit-test-analyze loop. Agents fulfill their potential only when both loops are fast.
Chris will explain how architecture determines the speed of both loops and introduce six architecture and design techniques for making them faster. He'll also explore why organizations using coding agents can outgrow a monolith sooner, and the signals that indicate when it may be time to move toward microservices.
About Chris
Chris Richardson helps organizations modernize their application architectures to accelerate software delivery and enable fast, sustainable flow, a prerequisite for effectively using coding agents.
He is the creator of Microservices.io, author of Microservices Patterns and POJOs in Action, and founder of Eventuate. Earlier in his career, Chris founded the original CloudFoundry.com, an early Java PaaS for Amazon EC2. He speaks internationally about software architecture and architecting for fast flow.
🎤 JetBrains
Gleb Melnikov | Rethinking the IDE for Coding Agents
This session explores how JetBrains is evolving the IDE for agentic development through Air. Practical examples reveal the product decisions and tradeoffs behind new developer workflows, from delegating tasks to investigating results. Attendees will learn why the IDE still matters when agents write code, and how it helps developers stay in control of the software they ship.
Speaker info:
Gleb leads product strategy for JetBrains AI across IntelliJ-based IDEs, focusing on AI coding tools that developers can trust. His work covers agentic IDE experiences, agent workflows, in-IDE agent UX, and agent evaluation.

🎤 Community Speaker
Ricardo Romero
WARD AI: Quality Guardrails for AI Coding Agents
AI coding agents can write code faster than ever, but how do we ensure that code meets our quality, architectural, and security standards without constantly supervising every change?
WARD AI is an open-source CLI that automates quality gates for AI-assisted development. It integrates with coding agents such as Junie, GitHub Copilot, Claude Code, OpenCode, or Codex, enforcing project-specific rules through automated checks covering testing, code quality, architecture, and security.
In this talk, Ricardo Romero will demonstrate how WARD AI moves engineering standards out of prompts and into the development workflow, providing immediate feedback after edits and progressively stricter checks before commits, pushes, and CI. The goal is to let AI agents work more autonomously while keeping developers in control of the quality of the code they ship.

How to prepare:

• Only people who are on the "Going" ("Nehmen teil") list here can visit the jam.
• Bring any equipment (or craft supplies) you need. We will have chairs, tables, electricity and internet, but nothing else.

Berlin Mini Game Jam is a relaxed 7 hour prototyping jam: After we have chosen a theme together, we form teams or go solo to make game graphics, concepts and prototypes on computers, phones, cardboard or physical space. At the end, we present the results to each other.
