We spend a lot of time talking about #AI, but what really matters is: putting it into practice and creating real measurable #value. That was exactly the spirit of the first-ever KI Alumni #Conference of the Studienstiftung des Deutschen Volkes initiated by Christian Luhmann One of the many highlights for me was the fireside chat with Fabian J. G. Westerheide from the Rise of AI Conference. His message was simple but important: don't give up on your mission. The future of AI won't be shaped by those waiting on the sidelines, but by those who keep building. If you want to understand Germany's and Europe's role in this transformation, I can highly recommend his book KI Nation. I also had the opportunity to co-lead and #moderate Stream B, where we discussed how AI is being implemented in practice—from large enterprises to solo founders. It was great to see such different perspectives, all working toward the same goal: turning AI into real impact. A big thank you to Christian, Jonas Diegel, Maya Lau, and all the stream hosts, Dr Joachim Fox, Niv Adam, Jan Hauke Holste, Susanne Wehde, Ph.D. und Wolf who made this conference possible - and of course the many active participants "taking three days off." Looking forward to seeing how this community continues to grow & peer-learning evolves. 🚀
