What is the talk about?

When AI arrived, we ignored both extremes: the hype and the fear. Instead, we tested what had become possible that was out of reach before, in cost, effort or time. Think of it as a German-pragmatism view of two years with AI tools in an agency environment.

What can you expect?

Possible now, or only announced?
What can you do today that was too expensive or too much effort before, and what is still just a promise?
A developer's own numbers
One developer asks whether his job survives, and answers with his own numbers. We won't spoil them here.
Pragmatism over fortunes
You can throw a fortune at AI. We took a different route.
Midnight to lunch
One project went from an idea at midnight to done by lunch the next day.
Honest failures
They're on the menu, too.

AI-generated illustration in a flat comic style: a dense tropical jungle on the right overgrows a workspace with a laptop, a framed picture and a steaming coffee cup; a small smiling robot peeks out from the leaves. On the left, coffee beans and a single — AI-generated illustration (Nano Banana).

Don't worry, you won't have to read slides: this will be an all-visual presentation.

Who is the talk for?

For anyone in an agency or web team who wonders what AI tools are actually good for in daily work, and wants a view from practice instead of a sales pitch or a doom forecast.
