What we’re about
Practical AI Thessaloniki is a meetup dedicated to showing how AI addresses real-life needs with practical solutions. Each session tells a story, beginning with a real-world problem, planning a solution, and demonstrating AI tools—many from the open-source community—that are tested to meet the need. Attendees experience AI beyond theory, seeing it applied in practical scenarios. In some events, there will be the chance to explore these tools hands-on in collaborative sessions, making AI accessible and relevant.
What makes this event unique?
At Practical AI Thessaloniki, attendees witness a full end-to-end AI scenario unfold—from identifying a real-world need to building a solution using AI tools, many of which are open-source. Rather than just theoretical knowledge, attendees see the entire process in action and, in some events, can try these tools firsthand, gaining real experience in applying AI to practical challenges.
Who can attend the event?
Everyone is welcome! Whether you’re a professional, a student, or a hobbyist with an interest in AI, this event is designed to be accessible and engaging for all skill levels.
What should I bring to the meetup?
Just bring your laptop and a bit of Python knowledge to get the most out of the hands-on activities. Most importantly, come ready to learn, explore new tools, and dive into practical AI applications!
