Technologist and artist James Bridle conducts a simple chair-building experiment to explore how our embodied intelligence could meet AI’s disembodied knowledge in more meaningful ways.

This week OSINT journalist and trainer Craig Silverman joined us to share how he uses AI in investigations, from prompting Claude to become a research…

What does it take to help shape one of the most consequential revolutions in tech history? Join Boris Cherny, creator and head of Claude Code at Anthropic, for a wide-ranging conversation about the past, present, and future of artificial intelligence. From the challenges of building models like Claude to the possibilities ahead, Cherny will offer an insider’s perspective on a technology rapidly transforming our world.

🎤 *How Complex Systems Taught Me To Fail by Imogen Wright*

🔗 https://ep2026.europython.eu/session/how-complex-systems-taught-me-to-fail

📝 Abstract:

This talk traces a meandering story of twenty years of invention, triumph and disaster, touching on theoretical physics, cloud computing, viral genetics, pandemic responses, and nearly dying in an NHS A&E queue. You'll pick up four generally applicable laws of complex systems, gain some superpowers for averting an apocalypse, and hopefully laugh a bit along the way. This isn't much of a technical talk and it is neither sanitised nor triumphant — expect sarcasm, most of all during the rough patches. My hope is that you'll leave seeing your own work differently, especially if it's quiet and unglamorous. Resilience is a property of systems, not their components, and it's the people who notice small changes and tend locally who make the biggest differences of all.
