I'm visiting #roscon2024 these days. It's great fun; I'm not really in robotics but with my CS and AI background I'm close enough that there's an abundance of topics to explore, and fascinating people to talk to. But omg sometimes these places bring out the weirdest people... There's invariably some business guy who's not an engineer but understands "enough of it" and then suddenly mid-conversation starts talking about super-intelligence and how it's gonna save the world. 😐
Anyhow, one more day to go, looking forward to it. 🙂
