> Talk 1: Dennis Palmer - Live Coding a Nerves Robot with Livebook
Several years ago, Dennis started reading the book “Arduino Robot Bonanza” by Gordon McComb. He had assumed that an Arduino was required to build robots like those described in the book, but has since discovered that a Raspberry Pi running Elixir via Nerves, along with Hex packages like Circuits.I2C could do much, if not all, the same things. Inspired by the Teachbot platform described by McComb, he designed and 3D printed Wobbles, a self-balancing 2-wheel robot powered by Nerves and programmed via Livebook.In this session, we will see a hands-on demo of using binary pattern matching in a GenServer to read the gyro/accelerometer data via I2C and control the motors to make Wobbles a little less wobbly.
> Talk 2: Raimo Niskanen - Do the List Shuffle
A deep dive into the list shuffling function `rand:shuffle/1`introduced in OTP 29, performance of investigated algorithms, hardship to find functional algorithms online, which algorithm that was chosen and why.
> Any allergies or special requirements?
We plan to serve some food and soft drinks during the event. Let us know if you have any allergies or any other special requirements.

Lean coffee evening at Agical. Please note the location, Agical
Västerlånggatan 79, 2tr ·T-bana Gamla stan, Stockholm.

Lean Coffee connects people with a passion for improving the ways they work and deliver value, such as agile experts, scrum masters, business leaders, students, nurses, programmers, consultants, or startup people - everyone is welcome. It's also a good occasion to get to know people in Stockholm.

Bring an issue you have in your professional life, a topic you want to discuss, or a methodology you want to understand better. Use the experience of others, share your own, or just talk something out.

The group sets the agenda by voting on topics proposed by the participants, and discussions are time-boxed.

(p.s. There will be drinks and snacks)

Some example topics: Agile, Lean, Scrum, Quality Assurance, Communication, Teamwork, Team dynamics, Software Practices, DevOps, Product management.
Some example questions:
What is this "agile" thing?
Why is my team always lagging behind on work?
Is my boss micromanaging me?
How do I introduce retrospectives to my team?

Our motto:
Come when you can, leave when you need to.

Hope to see you there!

👋 Hej AI Club Nordic members!

It's been a while since our last meetup. We took some time out partly to support fellow AI organizers, and partly because the AI landscape has been moving so fast it's been genuinely difficult to cut through the noise and deliver sessions worth your time.

But the underlying infrastructure is finally stabilizing. Over the past few years, the core building blocks — MCP, Agentic AI, Reasoning Models, Multimodal Integration, and RAG — have matured from emerging ideas into a real foundation. The plumbing is in place, and the actual building can begin.

That said, keeping up with AI is a challenge for most professionals right now. The Stockholm tech calendar is busy, with events ranging from deeply academic to heavily commercial. At AI Club Nordics, we want to be something different: a genuine club. No sales pitches, no corporate agenda — just honest conversations, freedom to explore whatever tools and models interest you, and good company.

⚡ Introducing: The Irreplaceable Series

We welcome you back to a 7-part summer masterclass series designed to give you the actual skills that make you invaluable in an automated world. Less slide deck fluff, more real-world execution.

To co-pilot this journey, we've brought on a stellar resident expert: John Tan, founder of nativefirst.ai. John is a seasoned operator who embeds inside scaling companies to take them past basic text generation and into the world of shipped, production-grade autonomous systems.

🎯 Session 1: Can AI Replace Experts at Work Today?

The question on everyone's mind isn’t if AI is changing things, but whether it can actually replace human expertise right now. We’re drawing the line in the sand.

• The Trend: The 3 Waves of AI. We will break down how AI has evolved—from Wave 1 (basic text generation and ChatGPT tabs) to Wave 2 (workflows and tool assistance) and finally Wave 3 (fully autonomous agent systems). The reality? Most companies are still completely trapped in Wave 1. They bought subscriptions, but changed exactly zero workflows. We'll show you what happens when you cross over.
• The Action: How to 100x your personal output with agents. This isn't about working harder or typing faster prompts. We will show you how to move past the chat box!

🗓️ Event Details

• When: Tuesday, June 23th | 17:30 - 19:30
• Where: Embassy House, Södermalm, Stockholm
• The Vibe: Relaxed - all humans (and agents) are welcome to cool discussions on all things AI.

We'll be keeping the series going throughout the summer — no slowdown, even while half of Sweden is out recharging somewhere on an island. Like the technology we follow, we don't really have an off switch.

Whether you're a developer building products, a professional navigating what AI means for your role, or simply someone trying to make sense of where things stand right now — there's a seat at our table for you. Come grab a coffee or soda, hear how AI-native teams are actually working, and have real conversations with people who are figuring it out alongside you.

Spaces at Embassy House are limited.
Hit RSVP, bring your workflow bottlenecks, and let's launch with intent! 🚀

Stockholm Biggest Business, Tech & Entrepreneur Networking Soiree

What does a product manager actually do in 2026? The role is changing fast. AI is no longer a side project or a future plan. It's part of the daily workflow at more and more companies. Join us for a hands-on ProductTank where we dig into how real PMs are using AI and AI agents in their day to day, from the small tricks that save time to the bigger shifts in how products get built.
This one is all about the practical stuff. No buzzwords, no hype. Just real workflows, real tools, and real lessons from people doing the work. Whether you're already an AI first PM or just getting started, you'll walk away with ideas you can try the very next morning.

Speakers:

1. Walter Jooste - Product Manager at Velory
