IBM supercomputer wins first Jeopardy dust up - Computerworld - 1 views

  •  
    Explain how Watson can mimic human intelligence. Watson mimics human intelligence by going through the same process humans do in order to find an answer. Watsons can comprehend clues and pieces of information, analyze the information that is given, and come up with an answer to the problem. Explain the ways that computers can rival a human in answering questions. Computers are systematic machines. Humans, can also be, but in a less precise manner. Thus, computers that are given the same amount of information, and have access to a lot of background knowledge can possibly rival humans in answering questions because of the systems' advantage of sorting out pieces of information and analyzing it digitally. Humans depends on their brains, and not knowing whether they really do, or how much they analyze the data correctly or not. A computer's digital system can come up with a number of possibilities precisely and thus calculate the best conclusion to the question. Explain the ways AI can impact personal lives. With the help of AI, human needed jobs such as diagnosing problems and illness, self-service centers, and information center tasks can be given to the AIs. Also, this can enhance humans personal lives by offering the humans an extra helping hand, that isn't as emotional as humans, and can be just as effective as well as useful, albeit the cost will be very high. Why was Jeopardy a good challenge? Jeopardy is a good challenge because of the structure of the Jeopardy game itself. The game itself only provides sly clues, riddles mixed with sarcasm and irony. Humans can detect such facts in the clues, but for a machine, as well as the system to be able to recognize these clues as well as reading in between the words to understand the meaning for an answer is a challenge. The system would have to be taught the same way humans are taught to notice such abnormalities of the hints. This is harder to teach an AI since it doesn't follow the same path of instruction

BBC News - Apple acts on iPhone tracking bug - 1 views

    How does apple propose to solve the tracking program? Describe two examples of data tracking services that people use. Do you think privacy is still an issue with phones and apps? May 17 cream
  •  
    1. How does apple propose to solve the tracking program? Apple released newly developed software that cuts the amount of stored data to just a week and no longer transfer it to the owner's computer when the phone is connected. And if users disable the location services setting on their iPhone or iPad, it will stop collecting data completely. 2. Describe two examples of data tracking services that people use. - Foursquare: Foursquare is a location-based social networking website based on software for mobile devices. - Mobile Me: Mobile Me automatically pushes new email, contacts, and calendar events to your iPhone, Mac, and PC. So your devices always stay in perfect sync. 3. Do you think privacy is still an issue with phones and apps? Of course yes because mobile devices are connected to networks for all the time in order to access to files and media. Privacy is always going to be an issue with phones and apps because even though Apple is storing data for shorter time, the stored data can be used or leaked anytime when threats attack.

    Read Heads-up. Describe two guidelines from each section that you think are relevant advice. May 9 kuni
  •  
    Share with care Your online actions can have real-world consequences. The pictures you post and the words and the words you write can affect the people in your life. Think before you post and share. The advice, mainly for children, is that before you click to send email or when you're ready to post or send a message or a photo, download a file, game or program, or shop for something-stop for a second. Think about things like: Do you know and trust who you're dealing with-or what you're sharing or downloading? How will you feel if your information ends up somewhere you didn't intend? Get someone's okay before you share photos or videos they're in. Online photo albums are great for storing and sharing pictures of special events, and camera phones make it easy to capture every moment. Stop and think about your own privacy-and other people's-before you share photos and videos online. It can be embarrassing, unfair and even unsafe to send or post photos and videos without getting permission from the people in them. Interact With Tact Avatars are people too. When you're playing a game or exploring an online world where you can create a character and interact with others, remember real people are behind those characters on the screen. Respect their feelings just INTERACT WITH TACT like you would in person. Remember that your character or avatar is a virtual version of you-what does it tell people about you and your interests? Speak up. If you see something inappropriate on a social networking site or in a game or chat room, let the website know and tell an adult you trust. Using Report Abuse links can help keep sites fun for everyone. The Protection Connection Learn about social mapping. Many mobile phones have GPS technology, and there are applications that allow you to find your friends-and allow them to find you. Use GPS and social mapping apps only with people you know personally and trust. Take advantage of privacy features in

    1. The area of impact that the scenario relates to the Prgivacies that people can visit to the other people's profiles and view histories to find what the other person done in the past. 2. This is related to the Databases where Google stores the information on profile and history that what they had done. It is also related to surveillance 3. There is the problem with the privacy and anonymity that people can have access to the other persons profile to see their actions in the past. Most companies do this in career test for finding some inappropriate action that the person has done. 4.The database is a collection of information stored in an organized form in a computer. Program helps keep track of corporate passengers 5. For sollution, it might be helpfult to use proxy to get away from google tracking accounts.

Lithium battery danger on planes sparks debate - Travel - News - msnbc.com - 0 views

  •  
    Why are batteries environmentally hazardous? Because lithium batteries contain metal that will spontaneously ignite if exposed to air. Also, the negative and positive poles on some lithium batteries are close together, leading more easily to short circuit which can cause fire. Explain the issue of safety versus cost. The issue of safety here is that if the lithium batteries are improperly package, damage or have manufacturing defects, they can short circuit and ignite. Overheated lithium batteries can blow the lids off steel shipping containers and damage a plane. Once a battery catches fire, the heat can set off other batteries. Obama administration proposed rules but they are opposed by many because they say the rules would cost them hundreds of millions of dollars in added packaging, paperwork and training for employees. It will also mean delays in getting medical equipment to patients and would drive up the cost of shipments.

    summary about the cloud soo nov 22
  •  
    1. The cloud has been around for a while  Summary about the cloud Many people are doing their own business everywhere around the world and they need something that can communicate with their customers, workers, and many other people. We call these communicating systems as Clouding. For example, currently there is phone call, emails and messaging systems are examples of clouding system. When people are using clouding system, they have to care about backup system to protect their files from losing. To have good clouding system, people need connection of Internet to send or receive their emails with cell phones or laptops. Then people should have their free email accounts like G-mail or Yahoo. Theses free email accounts allow large attachments and people can access theses emails everywhere. Unfortunately, business user who has Google or Yahoo accounts with their company name should pay a small annual fee. These systems are all cloud. People are using clouding computing already.
