As we continue to speculate the plausibility of superhuman AI, some have become concerned about our future regarding such technologically advanced entities. Their concerns are chiefly of two forms. Some concerns are regarding the possibility of AI systems achieving goals or exhibiting behaviors that are much different than what the designer originally purported. This may happen perhaps due to our inability to understand the technical issues involving complex systems, resulting in design errors.…

SEP #4 In my observation of a Kindergarten class, there were many different teaching methods used. The teacher used many visual aids, and example would be when she asked the students to draw a pig. She displayed a pig on the board that was drawn by a guest speaker, and the students were asked to replicate the drawing. The teacher I observed also used games to enhance the student’s learning. The games were not meant to be competitive, but simply there to help the students with thing such as…

Systems Theory The Healthcare organizations supplies nursing provision grounded on arrays kinds of theories. An open theory established by Katz and Kahn in 1978 was one sort of the theory, this theory glances at the healthcare organizations as social systems distributed into interconnected subsystems (Meyer & O’Brien-Pallas, 2010). These interconnected subsystems comprises of inputs, throughputs, outputs, systems of cycles of events and the negative feedback ((Meyer & O’Brien-Pallas, 2010). The…

When it comes to the final project our group decided to focus on family systems therapy. We decided that this would be an interesting form of therapy to look into also was nice that it is one that we learned about at the end of the semester. When it comes to family systems therapy the idea is that the family is seen as a whole unit and when something effects one person in the unit it actually effects all members of that unit. When looking at one person in that unit the best way to understand…

Various connections that Miranda makes in Chapter 8 relate to Borges article “The Aleph.” The connections she makes between consciousness and experience relate to one single point in time that is mentioned in the Aleph. Using this she questions, if and wether real objects in the world would need to exist. She uses the argument of cats and dogs existing outside out this hyperbox in connection networks which is similar to our consciousness. She states if there would even be a need for real cats…

In the island of Beak-topia, resides a countless number of birds. To search for food, some fly above the trees, like the toucan, while others swim underneath the island, like the penguin. To hang out with their friends, some get up really early, like the rooster, and some wait until others go to bed, like the owl. All the birds on the island are different, but we still call them birds. There are four basic things that all of these types of birds have in common. They all have beaks, wings,…

The ever changing outside world is divergent from the human body. With improvement of previous processes, the human body needs to keep a relatively stable internal environment, known as homeostasis. This crucial ability of the body consists of three components support the control mechanism; the receptor, the control center, and the response. Positive feedback is one of the two loops of homeostasis and, it is the enhancement or amplification of the original stimulus by an output. This cyclic…

In article "Automation makes us dumb," Nicholas Carr (2014) presents that machines have the power to do most of people’s professional jobs. However, depending on machines may affect our skills, intelligence and performance negatively. Moreover, the new technologies have improved factories efficiency and productivity. Also, they succeed to provide better jobs for people with valuable talents. However, he states that “de-skill” brought about workers are turning on/off machines without needing of…

Task 1 Homeostasis is the ability of the body to maintain a constant internal environment within narrow limits. The word homeo means it is unchanging and stasis means it is staying still; it has three main elements that are a sense organ to detect change, a control centre that is usually from the brain or spinal cord and a responding organ to effect a change in conditions. The factors that homeostasis controls in our body are our body temperatures, water content, carbon dioxide levels and our…

Introduction This assessment will evaluate Dasani’s family as an entire system. Dasani has been the focal point, however, for this paper, I will be assessing her family as the client system. I will use the following theories; Education Institution, Mass Media Institution, Psychodynamic Perspective, and Family Systems Perspective help further prove my evaluation of Dasani’s family. Education Institution The education institutions primary function is to mold children with learning tools…
