AI Crew Talk | From AI experiments to everyday value
Trying AI tools is easy. Making them actually useful inside a company is where things get complicated. This Crew Talk focuses on the stage where AI stops being an experiment and moves into real-world use: with real data, real users, and real business limits.
Join us on Tuesday, February 24, for an evening focused on how AI works in practice, not just in theory. Five speakers from data science, engineering, education, and business roles will share their experience with building AI systems, training people to use them, and turning AI into something that truly works in real organizations. Let's meet in the Applifting meetup space, both in person and online. We’ll start at 18:00.
Who’s speaking?
Jakub Marian, senior data science & AI architect at Colours of Data, will open by explaining the limits of AI agents and what it takes to build systems that work reliably in real companies.
David Omrai, full-stack developer at DX Heroes, will follow with insights on why generic AI workshops often fail and how tailored training helps teams actually use AI in their daily work.
The panel discussion will bring together three perspectives on making AI work beyond prototypes. Barbora Malinovská, AI and digital solutions consultant at Applifting, will share the client view on building AI that’s clear and usable within organizations. Tomáš Herman, AI engineering lead at Applifting, will add an engineering perspective on reliable agentic systems for real-world use. The panel will be rounded out by Tomáš Mátl, CEO of Colours of Data, who will connect AI initiatives with business impact and value.
