o Smiti Mittal is an incoming freshman at Stanford University where she will focus on
intersection of Mathematics & Biology. She was a great help in putting together our

written about her apprenticeship experience at https://tinyurl.com/yyzurc9o

While we have seen a good amount of AI discussion
among tech folks, we have always felt that a dialogue
between a diverse group is important for effective

academicians — gather over a cup of tea in Gurgaon to
have a friendly conversation around Artificial
