Chapter 417

After greeting Stewart, Professor Hancock, and the others, Charlene took her seat at the front of the hall, right near the center aisle. Stewart joined her, while Vesta ended up in the second row.

As rising stars in the field, both Charlene and Stewart had been invited onstage to share their approaches to research and learning, hoping to inspire the students in the audience.

Once their talks wrapped up and the floor opened for discussion, it wasn't long before the leading experts in the room all gravitated toward Charlene and Stewart, eager to speak with them.

These were well-known scholars, each with their own specialty. Whether the conversation turned to convolutional neural networks, embodied intelligence, multimodal interaction, or some other cutting-edge topic, Charlene held her own with ease. She offered fresh perspectives and practical suggestions for thorny issues-like missing modalities or computational bottlenecks-that had been troubling even the most seasoned researchers. With every answer, the experts' eyes lit up, and it seemed they'd have happily talked with her all afternoon.

There were plenty of heavyweights in attendance, and it didn't take long for them to judge Charlene's capabilities. Just a few minutes in conversation, and her depth was obvious.

At one point, a scholar waiting his turn grumbled, "Alright, Sinclair, you've monopolized her long enough. It's my turn, isn't it?"

"Exactly! Let the rest of us have a chance. You can't keep her to yourself forever."
