About this event

What to expect

Ever wondered what happens when AI projects go spectacularly wrong? AI Fuckup Nights brings together the Madrid AI community for an honest, entertaining evening where professionals share their biggest AI missteps, learning moments, and stories about cutting through the hype. This afterwork event celebrates failure as the best teacher in the rapidly evolving world of artificial intelligence.

Unlike typical tech meetups that only showcase polished success stories, this event creates a rare space for authenticity. Speakers will candidly discuss failed experiments, misguided decisions, overhyped projects, and the lessons learned from building with AI tools. Whether it's a ChatGPT integration that backfired, an automation that created more work than it solved, or an AI agent that missed the mark entirely, these are the stories that rarely get told but offer the most valuable insights.

What to Expect

The evening follows a structured agenda designed to maximize both learning and networking:

  • 7:30 PM - 8:00 PM: Reception and networking as attendees arrive
  • 8:00 PM - 8:30 PM: First "fucked up" story from an AI professional
  • 8:30 PM - 9:30 PM: Second story and extended discussion
  • Throughout: Open conversation, laughter, and community building

The format encourages authentic storytelling rather than polished presentations. Speakers share real project failures, technical mishaps, and strategic errors — all in the spirit of collective learning. The relaxed afterwork atmosphere at El Jefe Traveling Food creates the perfect environment for honest conversations about the challenges of working with AI.

Who Should Attend

This event welcomes anyone working with, learning about, or building AI solutions:

  • Developers experimenting with AI agents and automation
  • Product managers navigating AI implementation
  • Entrepreneurs building AI-powered businesses
  • No-code builders integrating AI tools
  • Anyone curious about the reality behind AI hype

No advanced technical knowledge required — the focus is on shared experiences and practical lessons rather than deep technical details. If you've ever felt the pressure to deliver on AI promises or struggled to separate genuine innovation from marketing noise, this community is for you.
