From reading The Singularity is Near by Ray Kurzweil, and the Alpha Dog Porto video, I understood Artificial Intelligence. In The Singularity is Near, technology is vividly used. Technology is obvious to anyone reading this story, very important to Ray Kurweil. I agree that technology is very helpful today for almost anyone. Technology is helping me to post this blog assignment right now. Technology is used to get me to class in the morning. Without technology, I really don't know where I'd be. We depend on technology for almost every given thing in the world. Then there is a point where I do disagree that technology is extremely important. I am not one sided in this argument. This is so because, how did people make it in life before technology was invented. Technology is also a distraction, as it is to this blog assignment that should have been done a days ago..instead there was pacman, games... but anyway, technology has come in the way of learning about the past. People used to get to places further than you can imagine by feet, or man-made canoe and such. What happened to those days? What happened to the days people survived on their own, without anyone's help? Technology today is just taking away the life that was once lived. Okay, now as for the video on The Alpha Dog Porto. So this machine was designed and looked like a horse basically. It was a very, very powerful machine. So powerful that men tried to push it to a side, and failed badly. Now, who in their right mind would even think to make a machine that huge and powerful? One day someone could make something like this, and it can get seriously out of hand. Then what do we do? People can seriously get harmed from technology.
