Turns out we’re learning about a LOT about training navigation software from dung beetles, so yeah…they get a pass. #nojudgement

A big tech-driven day in the city: checking out the new @aiperofficial robot pool cleaners with @tegan_writes for @weirdtechmedia (we heard they can battle and it’s all I’ve been thinking about since), and learning more about the ins and outs of e-commerce platforms as MC for the @bigcommerce BigSummit.

Had a guguburra visit in there too 🤎🪶
