Technion Alumni Go Global Podcast: Episode 5

In this episode of the Technion Alumni Go Global podcast, Technion alum Hava Siegelmann – Provost and Professor at the University of Massachusetts Amherst – talks about things like so-called ‘catastrophic forgetting’ in very smart machines, how robots can help rehabilitate injured soldiers, and even a little bit about baseball. Professor Siegelmann also tells us about her work in defending Israel and fighting antisemitism at the academic level, something she’s been very vocal about long before the current war, but has become an even bigger part of her professional life since October 7th.
