I'm Erin, a bilingual (FR/EN) community builder in Paris. I run Nouvelle Machine, the practice-first entry point into AI safety that Paris was missing: a weekly bilingual dinner (Dîner Machine) and a Saturday build club (Banc d'Essai) that get newcomers doing a first small project, then route them toward CeSIA, BlueDot and ML4Good. I've built communities from zero before, a weekly ritual in Toronto that grew to around 100 people, and AI-safety meetups launched in Kraków and Warsaw. I also write the AI Safety Digest and make short-form French AI-safety video, because the francophone content gap is the same problem as the events.
