“

We had HP Newquist speak to our members on two separate occasions about the realities of AI. Each time the auditorium was standing room only. His presentations were enlightening and entertaining, and people stayed long afterwards to continue asking him questions. His presentations ensured the success of our events. He was an invaluable partner for us and we would be honored to have him back as a speaker on this topic. - Orlando Science Center
