With Siri on the iPhone and Watson beating human champions at Jeopardy, we now have machines that talk to us. But what is the nature of such "conversation," and what are its limitations? In this lecture, computer scientist Lillian Lee introduces the science behind the technology and the challenges that still lie ahead. Lillian Lee's research has received numerous awards and mentions in the popular press, including The New York Times , NPR's All Things Considered , and NBC's The Today Show . At Cornell, she has received the Stephen and Marilyn Miles Excellence in Teaching Award, the James and Mary Tien Excellence in Teaching Award, and the Kendall S. Carpenter Memorial Advising Award.

In the spring of 2010, Steven Strogatz, Cornell's Jacob Gould Schurman Professor of Applied Mathematics, wrote a fifteen-part series on the elements of math, from basic to baffling, for The New York Times . To his surprise--and his editor's--each piece climbed the most e-mailed list and elicited hundreds of appreciative comments. In this talk, Strogatz will describe his adventures in bringing math to the masses and will offer a preview of his new book, The Joy of X: A Guided Tour of Math , from One to Infinity, as well as his sequel series for the Times this fall. A renowned teacher, one of the world's most highly cited mathematicians, and a frequent guest on NPR's RadioLab , Strogatz has received numerous awards for his research, teaching, and public service, including a Communications Award from the Joint Policy Board for Mathematics (2007) for lifetime achievement in the communication of mathematics to the general public.
