Computer Science: An Overview (12th Edition)
- The exponential growth in computer power over the last several years is to blame for this. How can we demonstrate that computers have had a growing influence on the classroom over the previous several decades?arrow_forwardWhen it comes to interacting with computers and other forms of technology, it is useful to have a fundamental grasp of computers.To what degree are educational institutions, industry, and society as a whole able to profit more from embracing technological advancements than they risk losing out due to the possible downsides associated with these developments?arrow_forwardWhen working with computers and other forms of technology, it is beneficial to have a fundamental grasp of computers. This applies to both computer technology and other sorts of technology.To what degree are educational institutions, industry, and society as a whole able to profit more from embracing technological advancements than they risk losing out due to the possible downsides associated with these developments?arrow_forward
- When working with computers and other forms of technology, it is beneficial to have a fundamental grasp of computers. This applies to both computer technology and other sorts of technology. To what degree are educational institutions, industry, and society as a whole able to profit more from embracing technological advancements than they risk losing out due to the possible downsides associated with these developments?arrow_forwardIn what ways do you think artificial intelligence will be a part of your life in the years to come, and how do you see it playing a role? Do you presently have any software that utilizes artificial intelligence (AI) installed on your computer? Should we make every effort to protect ourselves from the dangers presented by artificial intelligence and take all necessary precautions?arrow_forwardRobots may be programmed to do risky, offensive, or time-consuming tasks in place of people. Do you believe robots can perform some tasks better than humans? According to your perspective, this task should be given to a machine rather than a human.arrow_forward
- Is AI going to be very important in the years to come?Have you ever installed any artificial intelligence programs on your PC?Is it reasonable to be concerned about AI?arrow_forwardThe usage of computers and information systems is now prevalent in many common items such as amusement park rides, automobiles, elevators, and ovens, among other things, that you would not usually connect with computers or information systems. There are certain advantages, but are there any dangers as well? If, for example, you were riding a roller coaster that was computer controlled, would you feel more or less at ease? Alternatively, would you feel secure enough traveling in a Tesla with the auto-drive function turned on? What are the advantages and disadvantages of computerizing a growing number of daily objects? Do the potential benefits outweigh the risks? What is the reason for this or why is it not?arrow_forwardComputers are programmed to play chess, scrabble, and even crossword puzzles (American Scientist, September/October 1999). They are getting better and better; in fact, a computer beat the world’s number-one chess grand master, Garry Kasparov. Do you agree that such computer systems exhibit intelligence? Why or why not?arrow_forward
- Many everyday items (such as amusement park rides, autos, elevators, and ovens) that you would not normally associate with a computer or information system are now computers or information systems. Are there any hazards, in addition to the benefits? Would you feel more or less comfortable riding a computer-controlled roller coaster, for example? Do the benefits of increased computerization of everyday activities outweigh the risks? What are your arguments for and against?arrow_forwardNowadays, a lot of everyday objects, like roller coasters, cars, elevators, and ovens, are really computers or information systems. Normally, you wouldn't connect them to a computer or information system. There are benefits without a doubt, but what about possible disadvantages? Do you think you would feel more or less at ease riding a computer-controlled roller coaster, just as an example? The issue of whether potential benefits outweigh potential downsides arises when more and more commonplace tasks are computerized. In that case, why not?arrow_forwardWhat do you believe the future holds for you in terms of the role that artificial intelligence will play in your life? Do you at this time have any programs that make use of artificial intelligence (AI) installed on your computer? Should we do all in our power to protect ourselves from the dangers of artificial intelligence?arrow_forward
