Building AI Products When Nobody Knows the Answer

Building AI Products When Nobody Knows the Answer

Wed, Sep 16, 4:00 PM
From Grammarly Tech Talks
4.7

**What does** **building AI products actually look like before anyone knows what’s going to work?** Join us on September 16 to reveal the answer. ✅ **To attend the event**, please **register** **on Luma**: https://luma.com/rdzvmhud Please note that **only guests with a confirmed Luma registration will be admitted**. Due to limited capacity, we won’t be able to accommodate attendees who haven't registered. Most product stories are told backward. Once a feature succeeds, it’s easy to believe the path was obvious all along. ​In reality, product teams work with competing hypotheses, incomplete evidence, and no clear playbook. The challenge isn’t finding the "right" answer—it’s making good decisions before anyone knows what the right answer is. ​In this talk, we’ll share real stories from building AI features at Superhuman: how we designed experiments, navigated disagreements, interpreted ambiguous data, and made decisions despite uncertainty. ​This isn’t a framework or a polished success story. It’s an honest look at what product development actually feels like while it’s happening, and what we’ve learned about making progress before the story makes sense in hindsight. 🚀 **Who is this event for?** ​This meetup is designed for **experienced product managers, designers, engineers, and engineering leaders** interested in how modern AI products are built. Especially relevant for professionals navigating uncertainty, competing opinions, and incomplete information while making product decisions. ​✅ Due to limited event capacity, **confirmations will be prioritized for experienced professionals with relevant backgrounds in this topic.** 🔈 **About the Speakers** * **​[Luisa Gonçalves](https://www.linkedin.com/in/luisa-gon%C3%A7alves-02b90480/?utm_source=luma)** is a senior product manager working on Superhuman’s next generation of in-line experiences and agents. Her focus is bringing AI to everyone’s cursor. With a background spanning both B2B and B2C products, she works as a bridge across disciplines including PMM, engineering, and enablement and isn’t afraid to wear whatever hat the problem needs. * ​**[Sasha Marynych](https://www.linkedin.com/in/sasha-marynych/?utm_source=luma)** is an engineering manager at Superhuman, where he leads teams building AI-powered product experiences used by millions of people. Over the past decade, he’s helped ship consumer products across Grammarly and now Superhuman, working at the intersection of engineering, product strategy, and applied AI. ⏱️ ​**Agenda:** * ​18:00–18:30: Check-in and networking * ​18:30–19:30: Talks * ​19:30–20:30: Mingle with our team

A conversation with Bob Baxley on Apple’s enduring impact on product design

A conversation with Bob Baxley on Apple’s enduring impact on product design

Sat, Sep 19, 3:00 PM
From N26 Tech, Product & Design Events in Berlin
4.5

Please note: registrations are subject to host approval and space is limited 👉 **Register:** [here](https://luma.com/BobBaxley) This meetup will be divided into two main parts, designed to provide both deep industry insights and interactive discussion: **Part 1: Keynote Talk & Q&A** **Speaker:** Bob Baxley, Designer, Writer, & Advisor (ex-Apple, Pinterest, Yahoo!) **A Conversation on Apple’s Enduring Impact on Product Design:** Lately, industry conversations have been dominated by AI design tools and automated craft. In this wide-ranging talk, Bob explores how Apple influenced the fundamental relationship between humans and technology—reframing software not merely as a utility, but as a medium of individual empowerment. > *"I think the dream of a 'bicycle for the mind' is still out there, but it’s certainly gotten buried by the capitalist impulse over the past few years... My hope is to shift people’s thinking so that they see software as a medium — on par with movies, music, and books — versus a tool."* — **Bob Baxley** **Part 2: Networking, Drinks & Refreshments** Connect with fellow designers, product managers, and builders over drinks and light snacks provided by our host, N26. ## 🗓️ Agenda * **17:00:** Doors open & arrival * **18:30:** Keynote Talk + Q&A with Bob Baxley * **19:30:** Networking & Refreshments * **21:00:** Doors close ## 🚀 Registration & Security While this event is **completely free to attend**, capacity is capped and subject to host approval. If you can no longer attend, please update your RSVP so we can free up a spot for someone on the waitlist. **Important Security Requirement:** Please sign up using your **full legal name** and bring a valid photo ID (Passport or ID Card) to the event. Due to N26 building safety regulations, RSVPs without full names cannot be approved, and security may decline entry if the name on your registration does not match your ID. ## 📚 Preparation (Optional) If you'd like to explore the context before the talk, feel free to check out these resources: * **Book:** *Becoming Steve Jobs* by Brent Schlender & Rick Tetzeli * **Podcasts:** *Raw Data* (Prelude, Drop City, The Looking Glass) * **Articles:** *The Atlantic* ("Beauty: The New Business Tool", "As We May Think") ## 👤 About the Speaker **Bob Baxley** is a Silicon Valley–based designer, writer, and advisor with a 35-year career leading teams at Apple, Pinterest, Yahoo!, and beyond. Blending humanist philosophy with software design, he advocates for building products with deep empathy and concern for the people on the other side of the screen.

100 Minuten Zukunft – Der Salon der Zukünfte @BEYDES

100 Minuten Zukunft – Der Salon der Zukünfte @BEYDES

Wed, Sep 23, 3:00 PM
From Design Thinking Meet-Up Berlin by 100 MINUTEN ZUKUNFT
4.4

### Salon 02 - Thema: „Daten, KI und Supplements - ### Wie gesund sind und leben wir 2040 in Berlin?“ *\- Impulse aus der Zukunftsforschung \-Austausch \- Workshop \-* ### **Entwickle mit uns wieder dystopische, wünschenswerte und utopische Szenarien zur mentalen, körperlichen und digitalen Gesundheit!** Unsere Gesundheit ist uns allen wichtig. Der Gesundheitsmarkt wächst und Longivity, KI und Suplements treiben die Entwicklung voran. Gleichzeitig kommt unser Gesundheitssystem an seine Grenzen. Der **"Salon der Zukünfte**" öffnet den Raum um Zukunft zu denken. Das Erlebnisformat beginnt mit einem pointierten Impuls zur Methode Futures Thinking und Informationen aus der Zukunftsforschung mit Fokus "Gesundheit". Anschließend begibst du dich mit deinem Team im Futures Thinking Zukunftssprint ins Jahr 2040. In 100 Minuten entwickelt ihr in dem wissenschaftlich-kreativen Prozess unterschiedliche Zukunftsszenarien zu eurem Kernthema. **100 Minuten können reichen, um den Blick auf morgen neu zu ordnen.** Neben **Design Thinking** ist **Futures Thinking** eine wichtige Methode, um mögliche Zukunftszenarien zu durchdenken. Der Methodenkoffer gibt Sicherheit in Veränderungsprozessen und hilft bei strategischen Entscheidungen. Wenn du die Methode zusammen mit anderen kennenlernen willst, melde dich an: **[Anmeldung: "Salon der Zukünfte" am 23. September 2026 an.](https://www.eventbrite.de/e/100-minuten-zukunft-2-der-salon-der-zukunfte-beydes-tickets-1990316475155)** **Ein Abend wie eine kleine Heldenreise** Dieses besondere Erlebnisformat, verbindet Menschen aus Politik, Wissenschaft, Medien, Wirtschaft und engagierter Zivilgesellschaft – erfahrene Entscheider:innen und junge Zukunftsgestalter:innen. Maximal 25 Personen können teilnehmen. Die Begrenzung ermöglicht einen dynamischen und kreativen Prozess, echte Begegnung und Co-Creation zwischen Generationen und Disziplinen. Der kleine Unkostenbeitrag enthält ein Softdrink und senkt die No-Show-Rate. **Der Salon stellt sich diesmal diese Fragen:** * Was passiert, wenn Daten, KI und Supplements den Alltag bestimmen? * Was passiert, wenn Gesundheit zur mentalen, finanziellen und sozialen Frage wird? * Welche Trends treiben diese Entwicklung voran? * Was bedeutet das konkret für die Gesundheit von uns Berlinerinnen und Berlinern? Es geht um analytische Klarheit. Aktuelle Entwicklungen werden eingeordnet und der Blick geweitet. Was anfangs abstrakt erscheint, wird überraschend konkret. Diffuse Unsicherheiten verwandeln sich in beschreibbare Zukunftsbilder. Aus Diskussionen entstehen Handlungsoptionen. **Orientierung in unsicheren Zeiten** Der Salon vermittelt mehr als Methodenkompetenz. Er stärkt das Zukunfts-Mindset: • Komplexität strukturiert denken • Narrative erkennen und gestalten • Risiken und Chancen systematisch abwägen • konkrete nächste Schritte ableiten Gerade in einer Zeit, in der Futures Thinking weder in Schule noch Universität selbstverständlich gelehrt wird, bietet dieses Format eine seltene Gelegenheit, Gestaltungskompetenz praktisch zu erleben. Durchgeführt wird das Format diesmal von Elle Langer - sie ist Innovationsentwicklerinnen und strategische Zukunftsgestalterin für Menschen in Organisationen in Transformationsprozessen. **TIPP:** **Regelmäßige Orientierung in komplexen Zeiten** Wer die Methode vorher kennenlernen möchte, kann sich beim 2-tägigen Kurs am 17. und 18. September im Bereich für Berufliche Weiterbildung bei der vhs Berlin-Schöneberg anmelden. [Anmeldung Futures Thinking Kurs](https://www.volkshochschule.de/kursfinder.php?id=vhs-berlin-tempelhof-schoeneberg-100-minuten-zukunft-mit-future-thinking-zukunftsstrategien-kompetent-gestalten~11005797953) Der **100 Minuten Zukunft - Salon der Zukünfte** findet regelmäßig alle 2-3 Monate zu unterschiedlichen Themen statt. Nächster Termin ist im November 2026 von 17:00 – 19:30 Uhr @BEYDES. Wer Teil dieses besonderen Formats sein möchte, sollte sich frühzeitig anmelden. **[Anmeldung: "Salon der Zukünfte" am 23.

From Creative Code Berlin

**⭐ DOORS OPEN AT 19:30. PLEASE ARRIVE BEFORE 8PM! ⭐** The Creative Code Stammtisch is a casual show-and-tell for artists, makers, designers, coders, performers, learners and anyone interested in the use of computing skills for artistic expression. The event is free and open to all, regardless of age, origin, gender or experience. Beginners and first-timers should feel especially welcome! You don't have to be a coder yourself 😃 HOW TO FIND US? Find Prachtsaal Studio by crossing the courtyard next to Cafe Augusta on Jonasstr. 22, 12053 Berlin. WHAT SHOULD I EXPECT? We start with quick introductions, then open the floor to anyone who wants to present something. There are usually around six 10-minute slots available, plus time for questions from the audience. First-timers are encouraged to share their work. Topics range from net art to computational design and interactive installations all the way to wearable electronics or generative poetry. If you’re wondering whether your own project might fit, take a look at the [Stammtisch archive](https://creativecodeberlin.github.io/Stammtisch/) to see what others have shared in the past. This event is *not* just for coders! New-media artists and anyone working with technology in their art are very welcome to share. If you enjoy art and/or technology, you’ll likely have a great time, and maybe even learn something new! BEGINNERS WELCOME!
