Schedule
The accepted talks, while time permits:
Not All APIs Make Honey: Javascript Ones Will Surprise You — Nello Polesello
Did you know that your smartphone browser can detect vibrations, track device motion, and react in real time? In this talk we explore accelerometer, gyroscope, camera, and WebSocket APIs through live demos showcasing unexpected interactions. Minimal theoretical slides: real code and working applications that demonstrate how to turn the mobile browser into something far more powerful and creative than you imagined.
You Deployed AI. But Did the Process Actually Improve? — Andrea Saravalle
If artificial intelligence is now everywhere and integrated into countless work tools, why isn't productivity rising at the same pace? This talk draws a distinction between deploying a technology and generating real value. Organizations and developers often measure success by user counts, generation speeds, prompts run, or theoretical hours saved. However, these metrics don't prove an actual business process has improved. From an economic perspective, this talk demonstrates that AI only creates productivity when applied to a concrete workflow bottleneck, altering a decision, and producing measurable before-and-after results. In ten minutes, an actionable framework to move past benchmarks and demos: ask which process changes, which friction is removed, and which outcome is truly measurable.
How to propose your lightning talk
Submit your talk in the “Lightning talk” channel on Telegram, including its title, your first and last name, and a short description.
Selected talks will be announced at lunchtime on Saturday, again on Telegram, and will appear on this page.
Speakers should arrive shortly before the session starts so they have time to prepare.
