Artificial respiration

The purpose of this paper is to review the novel Ubik by Dick (1969) and connect it to my understanding of IGC. Synopsis In the year 1992, society is characterized by telepaths having the ability to read other people’s minds, and advanced technologies allowing deceased people to persist in a state of half-life granting their ability to communicate with those being alive. The story is told from the perspective of Joe Chip, a technician working for a company run by Glen Runciter who employs…

electrodes. 1958 saw the first actual use of an artificial pacemaker sustaining a patient, Gerardo Florez a 70 year old priest. This particular artificial pacemaker was constructed by Jorge R. Pombo (an electrical engineer) and Dr. Alberto V. Laverde, a medical doctor. The pacemaker was designed in a similar fashion to that of Zoll and Hopps’, however it was powered by a 12 volt car battery and weighed only 45 kg. The great turning point for practical artificial cardiac pacemakers came with the…

Artificial Intelligence: Cognitive Ability or Information Processing Computers have become an integral part of our everyday lives. We rely upon these machines to perform innumerable tasks that we often take for granted.…

His noise wakes you up and you tell him to quiet down. “What time is it?” You asked him in a groggy voice. You make an omelet with his recipe. While you are picking out your clothes, he reads today’s weather forecast to let you know it’s chilly outside. On your way to work, he becomes a traffic guide, saying, “Eastbound traffic on Highway is moving well, with all…

Albert Einstein once said, “I fear the day that technology will surpass our human interaction. The world will have a generation of idiots.” Mr. Einstein, sadly that day has arrived. The 21st century already consists of an explosion of digital creation and discovery. People are living longer, diseases are being cured, and global communication is at an all-time high. However, the 21st century has begun to show all the probable danger to come from these discoveries. The theme of the 21st century…

as Theodore and Samantha crush into each other, shed tears when Samantha says to Theodore, “I’m not like you, and at the end, moan when Samantha leaves. Not unlike normal relationships at all, “Her” depicts a situation in which artificial intelligence is no longer artificial when they tend to love, think, and understand as people do. And more surprisingly, such revolution is in the corner. According to what Kurzweil, one of the most phenomenal futurists of 21st centuries and a steadfast…

it makes mistakes, repeats actions and appears confused. Sometimes it is weak artificial intellect, though it is requested as model of intellect. Fields of…

technology, computer-assisted teaching has huge impact on the learning style and the role of teacher and students. More researchers arm to construct a system which can provide education with higher quality. As a result of applying the principle of artificial intelligence(AI), intelligent tutoring system(ITS) has appeared. The development of ITS is still an ongoing project. Although ITS seems to be a promising approaches on providing an learner-centered learning environment, the issue are that…

Scientists in artificial intelligence want computers work like human being. More similarity between computer and human being means the strength of intelligence of computer. Although none of current computer can implement a “strong” artificial intelligence, higher levels in “weak” artificial intelligence are still big achievement in science of artificial intelligence. As we cannot let machines have their own idea, we could design complex algorithm to simulate the human being. So, what does human…

As technology continues to advance with every passing minute, it seems as if the idea of robots taking over human jobs, whether it be physical or intellectual, no longer seems too far off from reality. While it currently seems likely that machines are on a path to take over human jobs, many still feel uncomfortable with this becoming their reality. Kevin Kelly in his persuasive essay, “Better than Human: Why Robots Will-and Must-Take Our Jobs, assumes that his audience is anti-machine job…
