Age of AI

 Age Of AI

For the AI to work as best as possible, it needs a lot of data and it looks like data from everyone. China currently uses many forms of AI to Servall the public. Especially since within the next 15 years AI and robots are predicted to threaten 50% of jobs in the next 15 years. Increases productivity for large companies but leaves the workers jobless. Even today with self-checkout and self ordering stands, it is taking away cashier jobs across the country, leaving fewer and more difficult jobs left. “ they don’t have a cushion so the lack of economic stability married with the disruptions in peoples careers is a really toxic mix”.


     China believes it can be a worldwide AI superpower by the year 2030 surpassing the United States. They also believe that they will be the ones to popularize AI and make it accessible and commercially sold to the public. Of course there are restrictions placed by governments. 


    When you search something on Google you create your browser history. That browser history is data that is collected and stored by Google. There are quite a few instances where we believe we are using technology when in actuality technology is using us. China even uses facial recognition pay technology at grocery stores, allowing yet another computer or data about yourself. 

      

    China is working itself up trying to become a total surveillance state. This will mean that no citizens would have privacy in their own homes or on the streets. In The United States we have a different kind of surveillance state. “Private corporations have built a corporate surveillance state without our awareness or permission.” The government is just now starting to make legislature about what companies can do with our personal data.

    We give our phones and computers so much of our private information. That information is always stored and if someone is capable enough to steal it you would probably have no idea. Governments can gain access to your data through the companies that already have access to your data, and sell it off.

Illusory Truth Effect

  “The illusory truth effect, also known as the illusion of truth, describes how, when we hear the same false information repeated again and again, we often come to believe it is true. Troublingly, this even happens when people should know better—that is, when people initially know that the misinformation is false” ( https://thedecisionlab.com/biases/illusory-truth-effect   ). This is implicated in everyday life. The illusory truth effect has a firm grasp around the world.  “When we’re repeatedly exposed to the same information - even if it’s meaningless or if we aren’t consciously aware that we’ve seen it before it gradually becomes easier for us to process”( https://thedecisionlab.com/biases/illusory-truth-effect ). We as people have been conditioned to act this way, and participate in this effect. I do not see that much good in the illusory  trut h effect. The widespread lies and miss-information can only be harmful. It might protect a person's feelings in the moment and allow t

The Supreme Court     While reviewing the two part documentary on the Supreme Court I learned a few things I didn’t know before it. I knew what their job was in their job description but I did not know what they physically did all day which as it turns out is sit around and read case files and study them. They also do not reject cases they agree with but publicly they are viewed as supporting it in fact it’s the opposite. I also learned that they have a special room where they all vote together locked away from the outside world. As stated in the documentary the Supreme Court’s purpose is to “ safeguard liberty, preserve the union, and hold the rule of law”( Part I and Part II ).They Ardell kidded to unbiased and law-abiding decisions their only purpose is to decide if judgment full of constitution or not. It’s just a sprayer said and part two, “courts have no secrets”( Part I and Part II ). The chief Justices all collectively said that for the first 3 to 5 years of their service th
