Johannes Kolbe
Hey,
I’m Johannes, a Data Scientist who loves to tell educative stories about Machine Learning methods and AI. Preferably I’m doing this in Open Source communities.
I’ve been working with Computer Vision for more than 10 years, ranging from designing my own Haar-Cascade face detection, over research on autonomous cars and helping people configure their photobooks automatically, all the way to undestanding the needs of smalle and medium sized enterprises, to create tailored solutions for them.

Escaping the Cloud: High-Performance AI in your Browser
Talk
Server-side inference is the bottleneck of modern AI, creating costs and privacy hurdles. But what if the solution is scaling down to the browser? This session investigates Client-Side AI using WebGPU, ONNX Runtime, and Transformers.js. We’ll explore the reality of hardware access, model size, and the 2026 trade-offs of browser based execution.
