Had a fantastic day at @virginia_tech with the @VT_Mining department! I had the pleasure of delivering a lecture on the basics of #MachineLearning for #engineers & #geoscientists, and had insightful conversations with both students and faculty. I’m truly inspired by the dedication of the faculty and the exceptional talent of the students.
A special thank you to Professor Emily Sarver and Department Head, Professor Aaron Noble, for being such gracious hosts!
