Visiting MIT and Marvin Minsky



Man, I love this job! On Monday, following Readercon 19 in Burlington, Massachusetts, I stopped by MIT, and had a wonderful three-hour tour-and-lunch with AI pioneer Marvin Minsky (above: Robert J. Sawyer, Marvin Minsky) and his students Bo and Dustin. We visited the AI Lab and the Media Lab -- and I met the robot below.

I'll bet that was an awesome visit.

(now if that robot had glasses, a mouth just a bit wider, and a bit of stubble . . . )
