Artificial organ

She 's a deeper character in a science fiction film than I 've ever played in even a drama role. And she has multiple stages that she goes through and she 's basically taking it upon herself to put an end to the artificial intelligence taking over the world. Everybody else thinks they 're doing something about it, but she 's just like, "Hey, this isn 't gonna stop it." But then she has a lot of emotional and physical discovery along the way. And so there 's almost…

society can shape one’s relationship to the body both in and out of cyberspace. P. Burke loses her identity to the artificial body, as she “can no longer clearly recall that she exists apart from Delphi” (Tiptree, 68). Egan’s story reflects mostly on one main character introspectively, while Tiptree explores a view that is of the outside looking in. P. Burke’s preference of an artificial body over her own, as intensified by the people who hire her to do so initially, makes the reader more aware…

To start off, I wasn’t very enthusiastic about the topic our group chose, artificial intelligence (AI). Instead, I planned to research the Zika virus. When that idea was voted out, I had to accept the fact that our topic was AI, which initially was a difficult challenge for me. Before researching this topic, I never really knew what AI was. I’ve heard of it in movies, but didn’t realize that it was a widely researched phenomenon that influences everyday life. To gain an insight, I researched…

overthrowing and either ruling over or attempting to eradicate humanity. The 2014 film, Ex Machina, takes a very different approach from the more popular depiction. The approach is more intellectual and psychological, regarding the concept of artificial intelligence. Instead of the general plot of, “humankind needs to be saved from the machines,” it deals with defining consciousness and what it means to be human. In Kevin Kelly’s essay, “The Three Breakthroughs that have finally unleashed AI…

like them is Artificial Intelligence (AI). It is not a system but it is embedded inside the system like computer. It is a broad branch of computer science which defines the study of intelligent agents. Like humans, the machines also perceive its environment and take the actions accordingly to achieve their goals. The term “Artificial Intelligence” is applied when a machine mimics “cognitive” functions that humans with other minds, such as “learning” and “problem solving”. Artificial…

Research Question: How can Artificial Intelligence affect design/designers? Introduction: Artificial Intelligence (AI), defined in the oxford dictionary, as “the theory and development of computer systems able to perform tasks normally requiring human intelligence, such as visual perception, speech recognition, decision-making, and translation between languages.” Or simply put, it’s computers with the ability to mimic the human brain, might just be one of the biggest events that happened to…

Virtual Reality is not (yet) about uploading your mind on a computer, as shown in great many movies. It is about getting your brain into believing, even for a quick moment, that it is somewhere else. According to NAE (2015), the user's brain should be convinced it has moved, although the environment around it doesn't change, because of the information given by all the senses, mainly sight, hearing, touch and motion sense. The engineering challenge here, is to virtually change the environment…

The informative speech that I select was presented by mathematician Hannah Fry. Her speech was dedicated to exploring how complex social behavior can be analyzed and perhaps predict the site of an upprising or riot. The second TED presentation that I selected was delivered by Van Jones who is the founder of the Ella Baker Center for human rights and of Green for All, in Oakland, California. Their mission is to build an inclusive green economy strong enough to lift people out of poverty. Both…

whether or not technology hinders today’s generation and the influences it has on our future. Cyberpunk is a subgenre of science fiction in a future setting, prominent for its focus on "high tech and low life". Generally centered on a conflict among artificial intelligences or a mega corporation, cyberpunk does a great job of taking the technology resources we have now and heightening them but not too much to where it doesn’t seem tangible. The cyberpunk genre also sheds a light on this…
