Day 6: Objectivity and Perspective

 Video Being Discussed:

https://utk.instructuremedia.com/embed/5dc6395e-cff0-4bcf-8fd2-33f76d7c21dc

This video showcases a pitbull and a baby bunny together. In this video, the pitbull is observed to be licking the baby bunny, and the bunny appears to be rubbing its head. 

Personal Explanation:

It appears that the pitbull is a domestic dog (collar), and it appears to be in an unalert position (laying down). I think the pitbull is being gentle in this video and helping the bunny clean itself due to the fact that the pitbull is domestic and does not seem to be focused on hunting. 

My Perspective Bias:

However this viewpoint also seems to be very human. Of course I would like to believe that the pitbull is gentle and friendly, but it would also be useful to take into account other possibilities such as the fact that it may be investigating its prey.

Changes to My Perspective:

The bunny does seem a bit still and startled around the pitbull, but it also is not running away from the pitbull, so I'm unsure if the bunny feels threatened. Although I still believe that the dog does not have aggressive intentions in the video.

Day 9: Visualization and AI Overview

  Data Visualization: McDonalds Dashboard I learned how to create a simple dashboard that consisted of sales, charts, and customer satisfactions. With this visualization, users could easily navigate between pages, see raw data compared to visualized data, and have easy access to contact information. With this dashboard data can be more easily understood and more easily analyzed whether it's for company improvement or company stats.  What is AI?     AI works based on data that it is taught whether it is text from a news outlet or a collection of art pieces. With this data, it can use its taught information to provide responses to prompts or stitch together words or images that correlate with the prompt. This technology can be used to generate all sorts of media whether it's a story, a summary, an image, or art. How Humans Determined Who Would Survive vs Code: Similarly to AI, we were given a set of videos to be our clues/our human "data." Based on these videos, we gat...

Day 5: 3D Printing

  My 3D Printing Background: I've had no prior experience in high school, and the last printing job I've done was in middle school with my old STEM teachers, so today was enlightening. What I used and What I designed: I chose to use TinkerCad since I am a beginner, and I had not had the chance to make whatever I wanted before. With that being said, I decided to design a little figurine from the hit video game, Among Us . Pictured: Side View of Among Us  Figure Pictured: Front View + Legs of Figure What I learned: Through a series of videos and tutorials, I learned about the factors that have to be taken into account when 3D designing such as overhangs, wall thickness, and surface area support. Specifically, these factors determine how your design will print out whether it affects surface smoothness or the overall structure. Additionally, I also learned how to navigate TinkerCad and become proficient in resizing and adjusting objects to fit my design.

Day 13: ChatBot

  What is a ChatBot? A ChatBot is an automated response system that can respond to text messages. Whether it's tech support or frequently asked questions about a certain topic, chatbots are programmed to be capable in answering these messages.  Python Code In this project, I made a bot that could answer simple questions one might have about climbing. Simple questions for total non-climbers like 'What is climbing?' was included in this code. Facebook ChatBot On a similar theme, I made a rock climbing FAQ bot that had premade questions available for my user on my Rock Climbing FAQ page specifically catered towards beginners who wanted to learn more about how to improve, how to start, basic climbing terms etc.  Flow Struggles: A flow is a series of steps a chatbot can follow to respond to messengers. However, sometimes it can get stuck. Sometimes it won't know the answer, and sometimes it might not flow. When creating my chatbot at first, my user had no way to come back to...
