+Last weekend your favourite people at the [CDC](https://cdc.cy) organised a conference for [Software Freedom Day](https://wiki.softwarefreedomday.org/2023/Cyprus/Paphos/CDC). We beat all our affluence records and we had 3 great talks discussing Open Source.
 
 Of course, I came up with a creative idea to include Rust in the discussion and prepared [a talk](https://cyprusrust.github.io/generative-ai-slides) about my experience using AI and trying to avoid Python.

+Last wednesday we had the pleasure to help and partecipate at the first [AI Hack Lab](https://lu.ma/c1fuw0u0). The event was organised by our friends at [AIFoundry](https://aifoundry.org/) and it happened in Limassol at the [BrainRocket](https://www.brainrocket.com/) offices.
+
+I gave a lighting talk discussing my experience of using Rust to do Generative AI - and it definitely sparked some interesting conversations!
+
+It was great to connect with so many talented ML Engineers and to discuss where the Transformers architecture is moving forward and what's going to happen to the industry.
+
+You can find the slides [here](https://cyprusrust.github.io/ai-rust-burn-slides/presenter) (with a brief description so you won't miss anything!)
+
+You can also watch the talk here:
