Assembly #1 – AI + Hardware engineering
The AI + Hardware engineering community
AI is still early in hardware development, but it is already changing how products get designed and built. This is a group for the people doing that work: engineers and team leads who build hardware and are trying to make AI useful in practice. We meet to compare notes on what is working, what is not, and what everyone is still figuring out on their own.
Assembly #1: The hurdles of adopting AI in hardware development
Our first event, part of Nordic Tech Week, takes on the hurdles of bringing AI into hardware development. We will be hearing stories from interesting voices in the industry, the real challenges in utilising AI. They will share how they actually work: what they have tried, what broke, what stuck, and the concrete things that helped them move.
How it works
A handful of short talks in storytelling style, roughly 20 to 30 minutes each, followed by open discussion with questions from the room. Mingle, food and drinks after. The evening is built around learning from each other, so bring your hardest questions.
Who it is for
Hardware engineers, engineering managers and team leads who develop and manufacture physical products, and who are hands on with AI or want to be.
Where
The Encube office in Hammarby Sjöstad. Food and drinks are on us.
Speakers
Filip Vitéz, CEO & Co-founder & Douglas Persson, COO & Co-founder, Veyra
