Intelligence

This week lecture discussed intelligence and crime by exploring particular topics that help demonstrate the link between the two. The topic of intelligence and crime is controversial within itself. The best-selling book the Bell Curve by Richard Hermstein and Charles Murray discussed how society has been stratified along intellectual lines and argues that intelligence is biologically determined. With an argument such as this one, both authors were attacked and scrutinized for their claims. Like…

Artificial Intelligence in the Field of Computing Technology Artificial Intelligence has become an integral part of everyday life in the twenty-first century for developed countries. This technology is used every day in cell phone voice recognition software in phones, gaming systems, and many advanced software programs. For many people, the effects of artificial intelligence simply appear in the things they do everyday; however, it is very important to see how artificial intelligence has…

Artificial intelligence is “the capability of a machine to imitate intelligent human behavior” (“Artificial Intelligence” par. 2). Artificial intelligence is being used in the modern world for several jobs and uses that humans rely on or come across almost every single day. For example, artificial intelligence is used to write simple reports about sports and other factual topics. In addition, it is also used in technological security in financial industries like credit card fraud security and…

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a rapidly evolving concept that continues to make waves in the world of computer science and technology. The idea that computers are being designed with the capabilities to mimic, or even surpass, human cognitive function leads to a new debate because of the effect it would have on the future of knowledge and learning. Should Artificial Intelligence continue to be pioneered for the advancement of civilization, or does it need to continue to take the backseat to…

How Do We Introduce Emotional Intelligence to Children? Children are constantly faced with a barrage of emotions and challenges that they are ill equipped to deal with. It is these challenges and associated feelings which establish the basis for a child’s need for emotional intelligence. In Kahn’s (2013) article, she quotes Mark Brackett, a senior research scientist at Yale as saying “educators and parents have long assumed that a child’s ability to cope with such stresses is either innate —…

term is an AI or Artificial Intelligence. Over the years, Hollywood has been using this topic to make movies. So what is Artificial Intelligence? Merriam-Webster states that, “Artificial Intelligence is a branch of computer science which simulates the intelligent behavior in computers”. This means that an artificially intelligent machine behaves like a human being. According to Britannica, Alan Turing, a British mathematician started working on Artificial Intelligence in 1933. He was the one…

ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE Artificial Intelligence (AI) can be defined as a subfield of computer science closely tied with biology and cognitive science. It is concerned with computing techniques and models that simulate and investigate intelligent behavior. Research into artificial intelligence builds upon our understanding of the brain, its evolutionary development, and provides insights into the way the brain works, as well as the larger process of biological evolution. Artificial Intelligence…

important points in chapters nine and ten are learning how intelligence and language are described and measured within the different age ranges of infant, child, adolescence, and adulthood. There are many different theories regarding intelligence and the types of intelligence. Whereas language is discussed in correlation to the nature versus nurture debate comparing universal grammar, environment and how nature and nurture work together. Intelligence in regard to infants according to Bayley…

Charlie Gordon has an extremely low IQ and got an operation to boost his intelligence. After, the surgery charlie grew emotionally and intellectually. The operation was more beneficial than harmful. Charlie had a chance to do things that most people won't have a chance to do. So why do some people think that getting a surgery to help you become more intelligent bad? Also, because charlie eventually declined to the same IQ level? Charlie was grateful for his time being smart and was pleased…

What is intelligence? What is the purpose of deciphering the different categories of intelligence? When I was young, I really never knew what I was good at, and until recently I still did not know. Placing oneself into a category that shows one’s strengths and weaknesses helps a person use that information to succeed in their life, home, and occupation. To people that categorize intelligence are Robert J. Sternberg, and Howard Gardner (Santrock, 2012). Intelligence can be interpreted in many…
