blog #5 robotics

I am a very optimistic person when dealing with the topic of technological advancements. I believe that because of all these new inventions, life will be easier and life time span will increase. Thanks to new advancements we do not have to worry so much about hard tasks. As an example, there are very little airplane crashes in comparison to when pilots flew the airplane. This is very important mode of transportation because airplanes are starting to become a very efficient way of traveling. Commercial airplanes hold hundred of passengers,hundred of lives that could be lost with a careless pilot mistake. With the autoflight function flying has never been easier! The pilot just sits back and make sure that everything is going accordingly. It has been proven that there are minimal tragic accidents because of the auto pilot.

I dont think that these  machines are taking jobs away from people because as you can see with the example that i provided, pilots are still needed in the industry. The faa needs them to control the autopilot and other instruments in the flight deck. IAs such as these are even providing many jobs for people. The maintenance and engenerring for new technology are opening up  new field so that people can take get their degree in engeneering better technology.

 Other than airplanes  we have new machines that can take care of the elderly. People feel as though their jobs might be taken away from them because of this, but if you think about it, this shouldn't be a threat, it should be a form of motivation to advance and maybe even contribute in making technology of their own. I don't in fact agree with Kurzweils idea that humans will become robots in the future. I believe that that is a foolish idea since humans have their place in this world. There place is to create technology so that everybody can have a healthier easier life. Robots will never be humans since it is impossible for them to contain any form of feelings. Thats why i believe that it is safe to keep constructing robots because they dont have feelings and can never rebel against us.


In conclusion i believe that by going to aviation high school i was influenced into believing that technology is our friend. I learned a lot about electrical equipment and even high tech avionics equipment which are extremely intelligent machines that are almost robotic. i love learning about all the high tech equipment and even though i was considering of going into the aviation field i realized that i want to be a radiologist. Radiology is also a field where many machines are incredibly helpful. I hope that these machines will keep evolving so that the radiology field will keep growing.

Sample paper write up

This paper is actually ironically the writting style that i have. I read this paper and it felt like i had written it. The only difference is that this paper was organized very neatly. What i didnot like was the fact that this eprson kept on saying the word I to state her believs. We all know that in this class "I's" are prohibited. We have to tend away from our own opinions and state what the quotes say. This girl was missing her youtube link which is a big no-no. The list citings is actually very well thought out and the annotations were good. She could have written a title to introduce us to the topic so that we know what we are reading.
Last but not least i would have enjoyed this class better if the instructor would have given us a paper with the grade of "A" or maybe even "A" plus. That way we can actually copy the format and use a paper with such a high grade to show the readers what type of work is expected for this class. In conclusion i will take into consideration these little mistakes that this girl did so that i can improve my writting.

Blog #4 Midterm analysis

For my midterm i chose to write on Nicholas Cars article is google making us stupid. I feel very confident to write about this article because i am very much opposed to his ideas and claims. I feel as though Carr is very pesmistic on new technological usage of learning devices. With this being said i believe that he still thinks that the old-school way of learning is the best. Yes, maybe it worked for them back in the day but that doesnot mean that this new way of learning will not work for us.
Also the idea of internet writting during school essays is important to consider. Yes Carr made a good point but just because students have a tendacy to write in abbreviations does not mean that we have to blame that on the internet. The people to blame for this is the teachers that allow this to happen. Teachers should take up the responsiblity to correct these errors. Thats why teachers are being paid! They are being paid to teach these kids how to write a proper essay.
My beliefs on how the internet is in fact a source to help students learn coinside with steven pinkers beliefs. He thinks that just because people read doesnot mean they are absorbing more information then when reading from google. Like he said, somebody that read the book "war and peace" sumarised the book as "it was about some russian guy". My ideas are stable and i will not let any other opinions contradict what i belive. Although google is making money from advertisment it is very useful. People dont realize that magazines also earn money from advertisment. Its the same thing! Google has to make money to compenste for all the rich information it provides for us.
In conclusion i will point out that its a persons personality that makes people stupid, not google.

Blog # 3 Continuation "research topic"

I have decided to change my topic. I will not be writting about Alzhemiers anymore. I have taken up the topic about human cloning. I will be taking the film "The island" by Michael Bay to point out views why cloning is unethical. I will be using articles about animal cloning to state how these experimentations could go terribly wrong. Also these animal experiments will show the harm caused physically and internally. I will compare that to the results of what human cloning is capable of doing.
