Intro To Artificial Intelligence (AI)

Artificial Intelligence is an area of computer science which focuses on machines. These machines will engage on human behavior that people consider smart. Artificial Intelligence has astounded humans for over 50 years.

In 2030, I think technology will be very advanced from today. Artificial Intelligence is rapidly evolving, so it will be very advanced. I believe robots will be able to do things for us just by us thinking about it. Cars will be able to drive by themselves. The future will be very advanced!

Two Owners, Two Companies, And A Lot of IT Headaches

      I agree with them, using 30 computers is hard work. What I found interesting is that they made a small      business by themselves. I think it was amazing that they got their work done so fast. The two of them started this business a couple years ago and they had great ideas such as the mint water. What I found interesting is that they had 30 computers, a dozen smart phones, and a couple internet routers and they still survived. I think it was really interesting.

Does The iPad Have One Button Too Many?

      I think that Nick is right. That button always gets in the way. What I liked about his article is that he tells us his opinion and that is alright. A couple weeks ago Nick had thought about this. What he is asking is that Apple should change the iPad, iPhone, etc. They should change it and make the screen bigger. He is talking about this in New York. I think it was interesting because every person has the right to speak out if something is wrong. He is talking about this because he is not satisfied with the button and he wants Apple to change it. I wonder what would happen if Apple stops making all these gadgets because of all these complaints. It would be interesting to see what happens in the future.

Vijay Kumar- Robots That Fly And Cooperate

      The movie is about how using the basic system of airplanes, we can create robots that fly. It uses four rotors to fly and it can make a map of the area. They can fly together as a group and can work together to pick up objects and make objects using pieces. It has a camera built into it so it see the environment it is in and can travel from point A to point B. It can go around and through certain objects. In the video, a man throws a hoop into the air and the robot goes through perfectly. This invention relates to information technology because Vijay Kumar used a camera and computers to download memory into it. He was able to install a GPS in it and that is amazing. The best thing about the robots are that they made a music video and they played musical instruments. It is truly amazing! You should watch it!
