Tanya Leadmon English 111 11/04/13 Singularity When Raymond Kurzweil wrote “The Singularity is Near: When Humans Transcend Biology” in 2005, he predicted that Singularity would occur in the year 2045. Singularity is defined as when computers become smarter than humans. Kurzweil truly believes that this will happen in the year 2045. While reading my critique of Kurzweil’s theory, decide for yourself if you believe Singularity will occur in 2045, or ever. Kurzweil

I was absolutely amazed by Ai Weiwei’s work. I love how he didn’t just use his art as a means to acquire wealth or to paint away his grievances and stay silent, but instead used it as a way to speak out about what really mattered. To speak up for those who saw the underlying darkness of China but were too afraid to say something. Its truly admirable that he decided to be the voice that would represent an entire country, knowing the risks, knowing that the government would frown upon it and still

J’ai visité la France et la Belgique pendant les vacances d'hiver. J’ai voyagé pour le plaisir et pour rencontrer des gens différents.

Ai Weiwei was born and currently resides in China, where a lot of his speech and art were a controversy for the government. His openness about human rights violations have gotten him in trouble plenty of times with his government. Weiwei spent time in the United States and noticed the difference in attitude towards criticisms when compared to his China home. Ai is also one of the first artists that decided to use social media as

Some years ago, I (GLS) was snooping around in the cabinets that housed the MIT AI Lab's PDP-10, and noticed a little switch glued to the frame of one cabinet. It was obviously a homebrew job, added by one of the lab's hardware hackers (no one knows who). You don't touch an unknown switch on a computer without knowing what it does, because you might crash the computer. The switch was labeled in a most unhelpful way. It had two positions, and scrawled in pencil on the metal switch body were the words

universities that I have attended in the past have all required me to use the APA style of writing. As I recall my high school years, the APA style of writing also seemed to be a favorite amongst my high school teachers. They all required that term papers be written in APA style as well.
