[Hac-announce] Coming up: Timely Topics - Humanoid Robots | Saturday, May 30, 2026, 4:00PM to 6:00PM | Humanist Association of Connecticut

[Manny Sholem Ratafia]

I'm looking forward to seeing you at our meeting on humanoid robots and 
pot luck dinner. While the meeting will be on serious stuff--AI in a 
human-like machine is pretty serious--I think you'll find it 
entertaining too. As a reminder that there's a fun side to this, here's 
a 3 minute video with some golden oldie music that you'll recognize, 
along with some golden oldie robots (this is from 2020 which is robotic 
ancient history). See you Saturday.--Manny
