Harvard University hcura.org invited me to give a talk to high school students and prospective applicants. I talked about merging humans and machines. Many requested to visit our lab on a rainy Sunday, and many decided to apply for @mit Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT)MechE now. Have a nice trip back!
