"GooGle"

This article was good and really got me thinking. At first when they were talking about how people are not able to read long articles or even books anymore, I found this to be very true. The last time I had read a book was all the way back in high school and the only reason I read it was because I had too. Reading long articles or “deep thinking” has pretty much been forgotten in our day. As I read more of this article, I started to begin thinking about how much longer I was going to have to sit here and read this, and almost instinctively looked for distractions. But, I kept on reading. I personally do not like the idea of artificial intelligence, I feel like in a way it could be good, but in many ways, it will be bad, especially if a fake human brain is made with a robot controlling it. There is no telling what the possibilities of what it could do to us as a human race. It is kind of scary really. I think it would be cool, if there were a way that all of the information available on the internet could be linked to our brain. That would be interesting, and could probably help us solve some problems in the world that we never had thought we could explain. I also, feel like it is hard for me to read anything that is longer than a couple pages, and I start to get bored very easily. One quote that really grabbed my attention was” That’s the essence of Kubrick’s dark prophecy: as we come to rely on computers to mediate our understanding of the world, it is our own intelligence that flattens into artificial intelligence.” This quote is scary and really opens your mind to thinking about everything a persona read’s and what you should think about it. Overall, this was a great article and I might read it again.
