Comment on Jarvis AI: 5 Fast Facts You Need to Know https://t.co/nwmg9u9AZg Using technology as subservient here, responding to life’s needs. #mscedc by jlamb

Hello Joy, I think this would help with a short explanatory note – what the Course Handbook refers to as metadata – offering a short explanation as to why you included it in your lifestream. For instance, what does it have to say about some of the course themes we are exploring in this block? Alternatively you might approach it as a blog post in its right, perhaps relating the content of the article to some of the readings – Miller (2011) for instance?

Comment on Making robots more human by jlamb

When you say ‘difficult’, Joy, do you mean hard to achieve technically (for instance, ‘how can we programme emotion into this robot?’) rather than human characteristics that can be problematic e.g. emotion, feelings?

And out of interest, what is it about the Bender and Gumdrop characters that made you like them more than some of the other characters in the films (and which ones, out of interest)?

Perhaps there’s an opportunity to think about this in relation to some of the course readings for this block?
