What if you could trigger Airflow Dags from Kafka messages?
On Nov 4, Astronomer's Marc Lamberti shows how to:
🔸 Build event-driven pipelines
🔸 Trigger Dags from Kafka, Amazon SQS, etc.
🔸 Run many watchers without dropping events
👉 astronomer.io/events/webinar…
Together, we'll build a Personalized Media Factory. A record goes in, and an agent:
- Writes the copy
- Generates an image plus voice or video
- Evaluates and regenerates on failure
- Scales to 1,000+ records with a cost per asset
The materials are open to everyone. Homework, the final project, and peer review are for selected participants, and seats are limited.
The course starts on November 17.

Build event-driven workflows that scale with Airflow
What if you could trigger Dags from Kafka messages?
Join Airflow expert Marc Lamberti on Nov 4th as he demos Airflow 3 pipelines that trigger in real time and how to run them at scale with your data.

AI agents are inflating the numbers you rely on.
🔸 Engagement metrics inflated by machine traffic
🔸 Ad attribution quietly broken
🔸 One industry hit harder than most
Here's what to do about it 👉 insights.snowplow.io/l/10928…
Dewang Sultania suggests a guardrail check: list every tool your agent can call, then ask what happens if each runs incorrectly 100 times. Start with Chapter 1 of Designing AI Systems.

How can people understand, evaluate, and appropriately rely on AI advice for high-stakes decisions?
Daan Di Scala researches how structured knowledge can make LLM systems more trustworthy in agrifood, healthcare, and legal.
Daan is an AI researcher at TNO, the Dutch research institute for applied science, and studies AI trustworthiness in high-stakes domains.
Daan's PhD at Utrecht University is on Knowledge-Grounded AI for Trustworthy Advice: how structured knowledge can enhance LLM systems.
In our webinar GraphRAG in Real-Life Use Cases, Daan will:
- Discuss how knowledge-driven RAG and GraphRAG can make retrieval more trustworthy
- Take you through 3 applied use cases and show the effect of different approaches

A churn model with 80% accuracy sounds good.
Here comes the uncomfortable check:
A dummy model that predicts no customer will ever churn has 73% accuracy, because only 27% of the customers actually churned.
The improvement over doing nothing is much smaller than you thought.
Here's what can help:
1. Compare against a dummy baseline before reporting accuracy
2. Look at the errors in detail, with a confusion table, precision, and recall
That comparison comes from Module 4 of Machine Learning Zoomcamp. The lesson walks through it step by step, with code: github.com/DataTalksClub/mac…
