Artificial Intelligence

The Ansgar clip was a funny clip about learning how to read a book. It relates to computers because we have to learn how to use technology before we can actually use it. The Bradford clip was very interesting. The computer in this clip was very useful. It could call people, answer calls, and many other things. The one technology that we don't have today is having a computer do things without touching it. In the clip, the man would just tell the computer to do something and the computer would do it. The computer even did things while the man wasn't in the room. This technology could be very useful.

My link is to a movie that is coming out about a robotic boy who wants to become a real boy. He is an artificial boy who has real feelings. He lives with his mother, who adopted him because her real son had an incurable disease. When her son's disease does get cured, he comes home and then she abandons her robotic son. The robotic boy wants to become real so that he can win the love back of his mother.

This relates to personal computing and technology because it's about changing something computerized into a real human being. I think that doing something like this is crazy and not necessary. I think that it's going way too far with technology.

I think that the movie goes way too far and is probably boring to watch.
