Goodbye Austin + #ArcOfAI! Leg 1: Austin -> Charlotte.
At the airport leaving #ArcOfAI. As always, it’s a wonderful, welcoming conference with smart people doing interesting things. I learn so much from both the speakers and attendees. And having free student passes was a great way to help students navigate these disruptive times. #ai
