The MINDS Centre for Doctoral Training invites you to explore how Artificial Intelligence (AI) can make technology more human-friendly and exciting!

Have you ever wanted to talk to a robot, ask a river how it feels, or control music with just your hands? With us you can do all that.

You'll meet a humanoid robot that can hold a conversation making interactions feel natural and fun. You can chat with our "talking river", which uses real environmental data to tell you about biodiversity and a river's health in simple, easy-to-understand ways. And if you love music, you can take control of the beats using only your gestures.

These activities show how AI can help people connect with machines in new ways, turn complex science into simple stories, and make technology accessible for everyone.

Come and discover, play, and imagine the future of human-machine interaction. Who knows, you might leave with a new robot friend or a river's secret!
