"It’s crazy that we’re so immune to those deaths,I thought self-driving cars would be a way to save lives proactively, and I also see self-driving cars as the world’s first mass-scale robot, and that’s going to come with a lot of challenges."

"Hopkins has an altruistic focus that pervades all through the university, In a time where AI and computer science can impact so many different fields, it was really interesting to realize that a lot of startups didn’t care about ethics or the customer in a human way—it was more about earning money or selling your company. It made me realize that everything at Hopkins is very human-centric, and people were very front and center. It was mission-focused."

"It’s such an important subject for any age,Everyone in life experiences failure, and this book is about how to strategize getting unstuck.

I see it as an opportunity for my next company to get there.”"
