Hey Chicago! We have CFPs open for the year for Kotlin User Group and the general tech community. We will be hosting a combination of traditional meetup setups and more casual settings as well, intended to foster learning and community.

Please note that we do not accept talks on AI, as there are plenty of other groups that focus on that.

New speakers are especially welcome to apply!

Legitimate question for open-source developers: how often do you credit open source contributions to AI?
