​Weekly AI community gathering!

​This week’s presentations:

​AI Walks Into a Care Home... What Could Go Wrong?

​What happens when you try to build an AI voice companion for vulnerable people? Mihail will share the real story of bringing such a system to life. Expect lessons about what actually goes wrong when AI meets one of its more humane use cases - along with the solutions found, and the problems that still remain.

​About the speaker: Mihail is a contractor with a broad engineering background - spanning PCB assembly, embedded systems, backend development, and AI. His latest project focuses on building an AI companion for elderly homes and people with mild intellectual disabilities.

​Why Elixir is Best for AI Agentic Systems

​Learn how Elixir's fault-tolerant design ensures agents can fail and recover without affecting your whole system. Elixir's lightweight processes and supervision model make it ideal for running many independent, resilient agents. It's a powerful choice for scalable, real-time systems.

​About the speaker: For over 2 years, Alex Gyurov has been at the frontier of building intelligent AI systems that scale. He has worked with several companies to push their systems from MVP to production-ready platforms capable of handling real-world concurrent usage.

​Come hang out with people who love building and talking about AI.

​Great space for networking, sharing projects, getting feedback, and learning about what others are building.

​🍻 Join us for a beer!

​Between meet-ups, you'll find us chatting away on Discord.

​​​​Location: Work&Share Synergy (м. Къро, Boulevard "Tsarigradsko shose" 111, 1784 Sofia); (Photo instructions)

​​​​Participating in the community and future events will be always completely FREE.

​​​Here's how it all started, told by our co-founder Yavor Belakov:

I just came back from a business trip to San Francisco and I'm mind blown!

​​​Not by the state of tech but by the people. People in SF are participating in AI communities like crazy - meeting up all the time, and exchanging knowledge and experience. No wonder they are a few years ahead of everyone else. There are between 2 and 6 AI events you can choose from DAILY. The average week in Bulgaria has 0 AI events.

​​​After coming back, I received this message:

​​​Wanna be our first Chapter lead for AI Engineer Foundation's Bulgaria?

​​​Sasha Sheng, Founder of AI Engineer Foundation (San Francisco)

​​​I guess you see where this is going.

​​​Yesssss - let's build a strong Bulgarian AI community.

​​​Let's be up to date with the dynamically changing AI landscape.

​​​And let's do it together - Bulgarian AI engineers, entrepreneurs, and enthusiasts. Not alone but with the support of one of the most important communities in San Francisco - AI Engineer Foundation (endorsed by LangChain, Llama Index, AutoGPT, E2B, Postman).

​​​We host our After Hours every week and Community Talks with keynotes, food and networking once a month.

​​​See you there :)
