 July 21st  6:00PM-7:00PM Leroy Collins Library  For my next meeting with Umar we started off with a discussion on AI and how Umar utilizes it.

At the end, we had a few minutes for discussion, where I was able to give feedback as well. Lessons learned: I think I needed to give more time for writing, because expecting a lengthy essay isn’t entirely possible for a 1-hour session. We ended up needing to give more time to writing in the next session.
