AI in the Wild #1: Proving AI Actually Works

Upstairs at the The Perseverance, 63 Lamb's Conduit St, London WC1N 3NB Following on from our first event in August, we'll be back for our second instalment in October. The basic premise for the event is pretty simple: We've been to a bunch of conferences where AI and its role in marketing and commercial were covered with great titles but didn't really get into the nitty-gritty of how AI was implemented, what went wrong, how they approached things, and what they would do differently. We created AI in the Wild because we wanted to put on the type of event we want to go to: informal, laid-back, and focused on the practical implementation of AI. Agenda * **Beyond the Slop: Scaling Authentic, Human-Led Video with AI (speaker Ben Moura, Screencult)** Audiences instantly spot generic "AI slop". Synthetic avatars might be quick but they erode audience trust. The true power of AI is in removing production overhead. Discover how practical AI tools enable teams to quickly and easily scale up authentic, human-led video. * **Before you build: How to get your first AI project right** Your first AI project is exciting, but setting it up for success is critical. In this session, we’ll look at how to choose the right opportunity, how to measure success, assess your data and processes, build the right team, and move from idea to a practical MVP. We’ll also cover the common pitfalls: from starting with the technology rather than the problem, to underestimating data quality, governance, integration and change management - and how to build something that delivers measurable value rather than becoming another AI Pilot failure. * **Agentic AI: More Autonomy, More Opportunity….More Risk?** Agentic AI moves us beyond simple copilots and chatbots into systems that can plan, make decisions, use tools and take actions on our behalf. That creates huge potential: faster workflows, lower operating costs, better customer experiences and teams freed from repetitive work. But as autonomy increases, so do the challenges: more integrations, more governance, greater security and compliance exposure, harder-to-predict behaviour, and potentially significant implementation and running costs. This session looks at where agentic AI can genuinely create value, how complexity changes the risk profile, and how to decide when the additional autonomy is actually worth paying for. **Agenda** 18:00 Arrive, food 18:30 Introductions 18:40 Talk one 19:10 Talk two 19:40 Talk three 20:00 Drinks and conversation 20:30 Close **Who this is for** AI in the Wild is for people in marketing and the commercial functions around it, the people expected to turn AI into revenue, efficiency or a better customer experience. You will feel at home here if you work in: * Marketing (brand, demand generation, digital, content, campaigns) * CRM, lifecycle and customer marketing * Ecommerce and digital commerce * Sales and revenue operations * Customer experience and service * Data and analytics in a commercial context * Business owners and leaders responsible for growth **Who this isn't for** We are not an engineering or machine-learning meet-up. If you want to go deep on model architecture, engineering, or building AI systems from the ground up, there are excellent London groups for that, and we'd be happy to point you to them. .

**[FOR ACCESS TO OTHER "TIERS", BOOK DIRECTLY VIA OUR WEBSITE HERE: https://www.writeandpint.com/events/30-day-writing-challenge-2026** ... **30-Day Writing Challenge 2026** *Hosted by A Write & a Pint* Do you miss NaNoWriMo? We do too! 💭 This is our second year hosting A Write & a Pint’s 30-Day Writing Challenge, an exciting alternative to NaNoWriMo but in the same tradition! Last year, we had just over 30 people join us to make progress on their writing. This year, well, we're ready for however many want to be part of the challenge! If you’d like to join us throughout November 🍂, you’ll build momentum on your writing project in community with others 🤝. We’ll have live weekly online workshops 💻, workshop recordings 🎥, online accountability 📲, and social events 🎉 with other writers to help hone your skills and focus on your writing. ### **Who is this for?** 🤔 If you’re a writer or would-be writer working on a book of prose, poetry, or just any writing project, this is for you! It might be fiction ✨, memoir 📝, biography 👤, autofiction 🔄, autoethnography 🌍, a collection of short stories or poems 📚, or anything in between. You just need something to work on that you want to make tangible progress on over 30 days 📆, with support and in community 🌟. ### **What is the challenge?** 🎯 The challenge – if you choose to accept it – is just like NaNoWriMo, and to write a full, 50,000+ word manuscript 🖊️ in 30 days (wild, we know! 😅). And for anybody who makes it to **at least 10,000 words**, we invite you to submit your favourite 500-word excerpt ✨ to our competition. The author of our favourite piece will win a **Penguin Mini Classics Box Set** 🎁 🐧 (RRP £100). *Note: organisers Sean and Shimrit + 2 × guest judges will be reading each piece and whittling them down to a short list before choosing a winner.* That said, if you just want to join to be able to make meaningful progress on your writing in community, without needing to track wordcount, you are still very much welcome to join us! This is for anyone who wants to spend November committed to their writing, alongside others doing the same, and with support.  ### **How it works** ⚙️ Through November, you’ll join **8 live, online sessions** (1.5 hours each, twice a week) 🗓️. In the first half hour, we’ll work through practical exercises to hone your writing skills. We’ll then have an hour of shared, quiet writing time, where you can actively focus on your work. The sessions will cover topics such as **arc, plot, style, tone, character, dialogue, pace, and perspective** 🎭, and give you practical techniques and inspiration you can put to work straight away.

He works occasionally as a copywriter for Oxford University Press and a copy editor for ETH Zurich in Switzerland. Over the years, he’s studied with Curtis Brown, Scriptwriters & Co., and MetFilm, and regularly coaches novelists, poets, screenwriters, and memoirists. Sean’s favourite genres are modern, postmodern, existential, and literary fiction – but he’s a big fan of everything from sci-fi and fantasy to thriller and comedy as well. 👨‍🏫 **About Shimrit:** Shimrit is a writer, poet, facilitator and researcher, and member of the A Write & a Pint team, co-hosting Wake Up, Write and writing retreats with Sean. She is co-author of *Nature of Work: The new story of work for a living age* (2021), which blends storytelling and research to explore what we can learn from nature to create healthier working environments. Since then, she’s taken her love of literature, poetry, and nature deeper into her own creative practice, and is currently working on a verse novel exploring what it means to remember ourselves as of nature. **Ready to commit a month to writing?** **🚀** Pick your tier and join us for **The A Write & a Pint 30-Day Writing Challenge**! 🎉 **Testimonials from the 30-Day Writing Challenge 2025** *"I loved participating in this 30 day writing challenge. I discovered so many unexpected and lovely things about how I like to write and what I would like to explore. I loved the learning aspect of the sessions as well as time to experiment and write together. All in all a wonderful experience, thank you!”* *"I’ve really enjoyed the 30 days challenge. It’s been incredibly nice to meet different people and listen to their brilliant ideas, including what they might be working on. I especially liked the varying workshops, which were delivered twice weekly – nothing like an extra arrow in one’s quiver. One of the main benefits for me, I felt, was that it almost forced me to make time to write so I’d have something to share with all. I would certainly recommend anyone to join the challenge, as its open to all people, no matter what standard you are. Sean and Shimrit are excellent and easy going hosts, who love what they do.”* *"Thank you for bringing me into this lovely, supportive community of writers brought together by the fantastic Sean and Shimrit. My creativity has been nurtured and my thinking stimulated - taking part in this challenge has genuinely accelerated and levelled up my writing and I’m so excited to see where I go with it next!”* *“The month nourished my creativity and was super helpful to get me writing again. We had lovely sessions (I took part online and in person) and I am already missing the community and gentle encouraging support to keep going!”* *“I've really loved this challenge and can't thank you both enough for reaching out and encouraging me to take the plunge on things. Even though I wasn't able to be as involved with sessions or the group because of my work (I could have done so much more writing); I've really benefited from having the group education, support and community. I've been going through a really hard time recently, I was even feeling dejected by writing which has always been my safe space. This challenge and community has helped me regain my confidence tenfold and has really encouraged me to keep doing what I love. The relaxed and down to earth nature of how you have run the challenge has been a breath of fresh air. I've been put off so many times by high costs and pretentiousness making me lesser because of being from a working class background. W&P has changed that for me and I am incredibly grateful.”* *“It was an amazing experience and would love to do it again.”* *“The W&P community is a precious pearl, holding in care so many diverse writers and creative thinkers. Sean and Shimrit gently, kindly inspire and support all of us to do the same for one another. It is, by far, filled with the best people I have had the privilege to know, and has had a genuine and lasting impact on my ability to move my writing forward thanks to the support of everyone.”* *“The challenge was perfect for me this month. Rather than the big, unachievable goal I had of 'finish the book', I have achieved the challenge of writing 10,000 words of my book in a month. It's a digestible, achievable goal which helped me recommit to my writing rather than it just feel like a huge unachievable burden. And I could start enjoying it again. The workshops were great and I enjoyed the different styles. I especially like the quiet writing opportunities in community, which really helps me get things done and in the zone. It was a pleasure to meet so many fellow writers and I loved hearing other people's contributions and what they are passionate about. I learnt so much from the community and they have inspired me. This month has been important for me to slow down, reengage with my passions and cosy up in my writing blanket. I've really appreciated the challenge and space."* 

WRITE CLUB: one hour of silent writing (or reading) in the company of others

The first rule of WRITE CLUB is that you do not talk ***during*** WRITE CLUB. This very simple meetup is based on the premise that public and peer accountability enables more productive writing than sitting at home and getting distracted by the fridge. We will write/read for an hour in silence. (I will be writing thought experiments for my other meetup group: [THOUGHT EXPERIMENTS IN PUBLIC](https://www.meetup.com/thought-experiments-in-pubs)) If you'd like to hang out afterwards, or if you prefer just to hang out, I have another event immediately afterwards in the same place :-) You can find that here: [HANGING OUT AT THE SOUTHBANK](https://www.meetup.com/experimentsin/events/316536684) And if you'd like to finish the evening with a dance, there is a free social salsa meetup just outside The Southbank Centre just afterwards. More info [here](https://www.instagram.com/salserosfriends/). **This event will take place in the foyer of The Southbank Centre.** You can find us by looking out for: * A tote bag with WRITE CLUB sewn onto it * My T-Shirt, which will have HANGING OUT embroidered on the back of it * Other writers - who may be spread out across the centre. They will have white pieces of paper with the WRITE CLUB stamp at the top of the page. There are plenty of places to buy refreshments, but you can also bring your own if you prefer. [WHATSAPP GROUP](https://chat.whatsapp.com/BpMwnRev0H237KMx4uPnek) [INSTAGRAM](https://www.instagram.com/experimentsingroupwisdom) [SUBSTACK](https://experimentsingroupwisdom.substack.com/) Looking forward to meeting and writing with you :-) Bonny
