AlmatyJS Popup #2 — AI, local models, and an outside perspective on web development

We are continuing the AlmatyJS Popup format: small, cozy gatherings with hands-on practice, questions, and lively discussion.

This time we are meeting at our friends’ Hy.gge Specialty Bar (17 Zenkov Street) for coffee, introductions, and two topics to get the conversation started. The venue’s Instagram.

Saving on AI with local models — Said Avkhadeev. We will talk about when local models really help cut costs, where they can already be used in development, and which trade-offs to consider.

An outside perspective on web development — Magzhan Birgebaiuly. We will discuss how web development looks from inside the team and from the perspectives of the product, business, users, and neighboring engineering disciplines.

Doors open at 10:30 for networking and coffee. We start at 11:00. Places are limited, so do not put off signing up.
