Tristan Vermeesch had one rule: AI never touches production data. Then came the night of April 2nd, an 8-week database migration that couldn't wait, and a 1am judgment call with our actual energy data on the line.
He'll walk through what actually happened, where the rule held, where it broke, and the two incidents afterwards where AI both caused the problem and found it. No best-practice slides. Just the trenches.
On September 8, or very own Tristan Vermeesch will give a keynote at AI with Consequences in Wintercircus Ghent, alongside Lucas Van Dijck (Polysense), Jarno G. (Aikido) and Tiebe Parmentier (Tekst).
📍 Wintercircus, Ghent
📅 September 8
🎤 4 keynotes + Q&A
🍕 Pizza & drinks afterwards
