Example like, "How do we scale the solution? " Have to consider the user experience in the solution that they have built. >> I would like to encourage students to really try to build a prototype and get actual user to test it so that they are able to learn and iterate on the prototyping process.

>> It's a whole range of problems that I've seen them solve, ranging from clinical trials to parking, to HR recruitment is all very very impressive. I would like to encourage you to continue the mindset of taking action to solve real issues whenever you see a problem such as the innovative projects that you have worked hard on. This mindset would go a long way. You may one day become policy makers or leaders of various industries and play a crucial role in ensuring AI is used in a meaningful and purpose-driven way.
