• Question: Is it hard to use machines to try teach children about robotics as they don't understand as much as you do or as quickly? Is it frustrating?

      The terms scientists use are very complicated. To be honest, scientists make those terms complicated on purpose so that they will look smart. Those terms usually mean very simple things. When we engage with public, we try to use simple language to explain complicated things. Unfortunately, not every scientist can do that, because it takes practice to speak simply. Scientists love their complicated terms. So, next time you are talking to a scientist and you do not understand him/her, it is their fault, not yours
