Week #10 - Speed Mentoring🧑🏽‍🎓

Diving Into Speed Mentoring

This week, we had the privilege (and challenge) of meeting with four incredible mentors from the industry. While their insights were invaluable, they also left us feeling a bit overwhelmed—each one seemed to pull us in a different direction! During the meetings, Noam took charge of writing down everything the mentors said. Later, we sat down together, reviewed all the notes, and identified recurring themes, what felt most relevant, and what could be set aside. By the end, we managed to distill the main points and bring some clarity to the chaos.

Exploring Human Empathy

In addition to our mentor sessions, we began researching a fascinating topic: what makes humans feel empathy for someone else? What drives people to care for and want to help others? We’re diving deep into understanding these triggers so we can incorporate them into the design of our robot. The goal? To create a product that connects with people on a truly human level.

Stay Tuned

We’ve had a whirlwind of a week, juggling mentor advice and diving deep into the science of empathy. As we move forward, we’re excited to refine our ideas and keep building a project that truly resonates. Stay tuned for more updates as we continue this journey—there’s so much more to come!
