A Robot that Loves You Back

As part of the Cambridge Science Festival,  Cynthia Breazeal and our own Sherry Turkle (whose latest book, Falling for Science, just hit the bookstore shelves) will give a talk tonight called "Sociable Robots." These women are experts on intimacy and technology and will discuss how robots can be made to communicate like humans. Basically, these women are the key to what you've all been waiting for - a robot that loves you back.

6 p.m.
Free.
