There will also be an exclusive interaction with him in the morning for students of SSLA pursuing courses like Computer Studies, Business Studies, Maths and Statistics. This is scheduled from 11.00 am -1.00 pm at SSLA. 

Artificial Intelligence and Neural Networks are technologies which are becoming the most talked about in the world today and so the interaction will be most interesting and informative for the students, faculty and guests.

Tanmay is also quite the inspiring speaker as you will see from his videos on You tube and thru the links provided below.
