On 20 February, we organised our first meetup for this year at Co-working 66. In collaboration with Code Meets Culture, we discussed the growing opportunities and challenges of artificial intelligence (AI). The main focus of our discussion was how AI is changing and evolving over time, and how those changes impact not only our daily lives and work, but leadership, society, and the job market.

The discussion included a topic of Claude and Claude Code in work-related environments, dangers of full machine access via AI like Claude, possible restrictions and ethical use (e.g. individual moral issues regarding Grok being owned by Elon Musk), ChatGPT vs Gemini use cases, societal awareness regarding what AI is and its rapid development.

There was also a demonstration of live creation of a deepfake video to show how impressive and realistic voices and faces can now be implemented, which is currently one of the biggest threats to identity theft in society.

We shared our personal fears about how AI already affects our lives, job market situation, and whether it will lead to massive job unemployment or will there be a new job profiles emerge, considering most of us in the group are developers, practitioners and consultants. We then talked about the steps we can take to raise our awareness and how to avoid, or at the very least, overcome these consequences of AI use.

Overall, not everything was negative; there were some positive key takeaways on how to keep adapting with the innovation when AI keep changing the games.

We closed our meetup by having a small networking session with snacks and drinks. If you’re interested in joining our next meetup, stay tuned for the announcement, as we already have a next topic.
