The topic of why humans are the way we are is one that has caused some of the greatest thinkers of human history to spend years pondering. Along with this pondering, questions have risen that has caused many controversies over the years. The questions include things such as “What is the mind?” “Where is it found?” “Why do we experience what we do?” “How do we know what I am seeing and experiencing is the same thing that you are experiencing?” And perhaps one of the biggest questions that has…

Alan Turing was misunderstood, to say the least. The man we now regard as the father of modern computer science was heavily criticized and discouraged during his life for various reasons. Nonetheless, Turing was an incomparable mathematician way ahead of his time, and he made major contributions to the math and technology fields, helping win World War II and creating a path for modern computers to become a reality. We recognize him today with great honor and respect, but throughout his lifetime,…

Pumpkin is scared, alone, and no one cares for her. If one saw Pumpkin on a commercial they would change the channel when it became too much to handle.

There are many similarities between the story of Animal Farm written by George Orwell and Lord of the Flies written by William Golding. Along with the similarities there are a few differences that support the theme of “Your beliefs will define you and will put you into a class”. The novels include different plot lines through the controversies of the democratic society. The similarities include that classes are identified throughout each story, and . One of the differences includes the…

Death is what animals will become if they are treated inhumanely. Animal testing is using non-human animals to be test subjects in an experiment. The world relies hugely on animals for food, so the more people test animals and the animals die the less population of animals the world has. The world relies on animals for many things and animals are very beneficial to the human race. People who claim to be vegetarian or vegan still rely on animals for different things. animals are good for more…

College Education Worth the Cost What you guys think does College Education Worth the Cost?

Those types of colleges have lack serious core curriculum, they did not they their responsibility towards student. Moreover, I will not support Riley argument because I am doing to…

In social psychology, fundamental attribution error is described as the tendency of people to attribute the behaviors of others to internal factors --such as character, personality, and intent-- rather than resulting from external factors and/or circumstance (Schwarz, 2014). This contrasts with an individual 's self-perception, which accounts for all readily available knowledge of personal circumstance, when evaluating personal behavior. Fundamental attribution error is an intensely common…

Humanity. We think, we build, we create. Our own curiosity pushes us toward a defined culture. What we call a beautiful painting or a moving symphony, only exists because we declared it. This attachment to the arts is how we differentiate ourselves from other beings. What would happen if that defining characteristic was possessed by not just humans, but other, inorganic life? Machines can think, and we have made them so. A system of neural networks is used to estimate functions that depend on…

Artificial intelligence (AI) is the science that makes the machine intelligent, e.g. when the computer makes decisions in a similar way that human does. AI is applied in software or machines From the research I did, the scientists are investigating on two type of AI, one AI is that it has its own personality, it can acts as human, has own emotion, feel what human can feel and its own thinking, so singularity. And this AI has self learning program so it is like human can learn from experience.…

“Siri, what’s the weather outside?” People today ask this question a lot. What they don’t usually think about is how Siri is able to comprehend what they are saying. This is just one way that Artificial Intelligence (AI) is used today. In this example, the phone uses Natural Language Processing (which is a part of AI) to comprehend what the person is saying. The easy means of communication we know today would not be at our disposal without Artificial Intelligence. There are many parts to…
