So I'd like to propose that we can combine those two worlds, that we can combine the world of the nanoscale programmable adaptive materials and the built environment. 所以我建议把这两个世界结合起来,把纳米级上可程序化、能自我调节的材料和生产环境结合起来。 And I don't mean automated machines. I don't just mean smart machines that replace humans. 我的意思不是自动化...
