Reviews a Second Time Around

Whitney: I agreed with Whitney’s opinions a great deal this week, especially in regards to artificial intelligence and consciousness. I too had never really stopped to think about whether or not machines really had their own state of being, or what the actual definition of consciousness was. It really is something I’m sure not many have thought about. Her free write blog also contained a great deal of information especially on the scientific end of what the brain and consciousness consists of. She went into great detail about how our thoughts work and the different processes that make up our ideas. Way to go Whitney!

Victoria: I had trouble starting the week’s writings as well! It was really difficult to know where to start from or even write an entire post about something I had never really thought about or understood. Even though it was a challenge, I believe Victoria did a nice job explaining the article while injecting her own opinions and voice into her piece. She’s absolutely right when she states something along the lines of how scientists do not even completely understand the mind and how consciousness works entirely. Great job Victoria!

Nicole: I really enjoyed Nicole’s Blog this week. Her organization of ideas makes it very easy to read and also makes her point of view really stand out. Her examples were also very creative too, like when she mentioned a growling stomach or even why people side with a particular political party. Her article on Artificial Intelligence was also a great read. While she was very firm in her ideas and beliefs, she also presented both sides of the story and had plenty of statements to back up her opinion on the subject. Nice Job Nicole!

Once again the blogs were so much fun to read! The group did a really great job this week.
