These sensory receptors communicate with the Central Nervous System (CNS), however, through a process called transduction. Transduction occurs when…
From SIRI to autonomous cars, artificial intelligence (AI) continues to grow rapidly. Today, artificial intelligence is known as narrow AI (or weak AI), as it is designed to perform a narrow task, for example, voice recognition only or only driving a car. “Researchers’ long-term goal is to create artificial general intelligence (AGI or strong AI). While narrow AI may outperform humans at whatever its specific task is, general AI would outperform humans at nearly every cognitive task.” (Tegmark,…

Anytime one immerses themselves somewhere new and unknown, they face a challenge in adapting to their new environment. As an American, our culture and customs are much different than the countries that I could potentially be studying in. For example, when researching New Zealand and Australia, I came across that strangers may use sarcasm and insults with one another. In the United States, this is not common, as it is customary to treat complete strangers with respect and only joke with and…
