Masovian AI Fest #2
Is there even a place in the Western AI landscape for languages other than English?
The largest and most powerful LLMs are based on mostly English-centric data. How could we use Polish (or any other language) in our daily AI usage?
Join us for an evening of meaty discussions about the future of both the industry and culture. At the intersection of language and technology, we’ll be looking for the answer to localized algorithms and their impact on nations.

Masovian AI Fest principles:
No BS content
We’re all fed up with meaningless and void content on Social Media. Thus, we’d like to invite and promote those who work in the trenches of AI - and not only write about it.
Focus
For those couple of hours, nothing matters. Nothing else matters more than how can we make the most out of each other to build the most captivating AI-related things!
Tech, business, and academia combined
Masovian AI Fest came to life as a bridge between those separated worlds. As we believe, there’s a huge untapped potential in knowledge share and mixing those ecosystems.
We’ve got wonderful developers, ambitious academics, and entrepreneurs aiming for the stars. From our powers combined, a new quality shall emerge!
Inclusive network
Everyone can learn from everyone. No matter if you’re a student, startupper, corporate worker, or seasoned blue-collar worker. The true innovation and power lie within cross-functional cooperation, experience & knowledge exchange, and both mutual respect and interest.
