Haris Yalcinkaya, as AI developer and CEO of the Dortmund AI company Ziya, presented the latest AI trends at the Lamarr Conference and how startups are enriching and digitizing the German Mittelstand with AI solutions.

As an AI expert and speaker, Haris appeared on three stages on September 4th and 5th, 2024, covering the topics of digitization, AI trends, and opportunities of AI for the German economy:

  • In2AI Fair Dortmund
  • IHK Expert Forum (with Materna CTO)
  • Lamarr Conference

GPT models are often celebrated as productivity boosters - but in practice, a different reality emerges:

Many employees struggle to use AI effectively because they do not know how to "prompt." The result? The power of AI remains untapped, and entire companies miss opportunities for automation and efficiency gains.

At the Lamarr Conference and the IN2AI fair, Minister Ina Brandes and Manfred Bayer experienced in a live demo why ChatGPT & Co. often do not deliver the hoped-for breakthrough:


1. Prompts are often not repeatable or sustainably scalable.
2. Prompt expertise is lacking in companies.
3. Frustration over inefficient workflows causes productivity gains to evaporate.

The consequence? Teams fall back on manual processes - and the potential of AI remains untapped.

The solution? A smart AI solution like Taila by Ziya!
With pre-built tools, an intuitive editor for custom applications, and interfaces to company databases, every employee becomes an AI power user. Taila makes it possible to create high-quality content such as emails, SEO-optimized blog articles, or LinkedIn posts within minutes - without any frustration.

The goal: Empower employees, not replace them - and help companies unlock the full potential of AI.
