Own Your AI - Event #5
"Own Your AI" is a community event for practitioners who want to run their own AI. We explore the sovereignty of infrastructure, models, and data, and what that means for controlling security, risk, and costs. Our focus is independence from the cloud foundation services and large hyperscalers that dominate the scene.
We are an active community of people who are building AI systems and want to exchange notes with peers who do the same.
Our Mission:
Sovereignty • Optimization • Knowledge
Who is this for?
LLM- and Agentic-Engineers, Data Scientists, AI-Platform-Engineers, Hands-on Tech-Leaders
