About this event

The first edition of Soup Talks, hosted by Hatch on Sumatrakade, sits down with Bob van Luijt, co-founder and CEO of Weaviate, on where human judgement still outperforms in an AI-saturated workflow. Weaviate is one of the most significant open-source vector database companies to come out of the Netherlands, which makes van Luijt a rare combination of practitioner and operator on this topic. Attendance is by application — answer a few questions and you receive an invitation. Small-format and conversational rather than a keynote.
