Brainstorming 

-is a group creativity technique by which efforts are made to find a

conclusion for a specific problem by gathering a list of ideas spontaneously
contributed by its members.

Brain Writing
The team leader shares the topic with the team, and team members
individually write down their ideas. This helps eliminate the anchoring bias and
encourages everyone on the team to share their own ideas. 

Figuring Storming
Think about how someone like your boss, a famous celebrity, or even the
president of the United States might handle the situation. Putting yourself in new
shoes can give the team a different perspective, helping them see the
possibilities from fresh ideas.

Online Brainstorming (Brain-netting)

Virtual teams are becoming more and more common across all industries.
The evolution of email and collaboration tools make working remotely the norm in
some organizations.

Rapid Ideation
With this technique, the team leader provides context beforehand with
information or questions on the topic, budget, deadline, etc. 

Round Robin Brainstorming

Teams form a circle to kick off this  method. Once the topic is shared, go
around the circle one-by-one and have each person offer an idea until everyone
has had a turn.

Television Addiction

Television Sucks. Various factors had been brought by television; it

may affect people's physical health and mental health as a result of
exposing too much on tv. Television has both positive and negative impact
to humans, it can be part of a healthy childhood as a help on learning
alphabet, determining colors, shape and etc. but as long as the privilege
isn't abuse.

Young people nowadays are highly prone of exposing too much on

television. This is due to the fact that watching dramas, movies on
television ethier romantic or a comedy one can be a relief to everybody
especially when boredom and stress strikes. Sometimes we can't even
mind that we have exposed our body on television for a long period of
time.

Now, young adults who watch a lot of tv and don't exercise much
may start to see the effects of their unhealthy habits on their brains as
early as midlife. It also wastes our time, instead of going to kitchen and
cook a healthy food, we choose to sit and watch tv not knowing that
television can significantly increase the risk of developing obesity that yoyr
health can be pretty damaged.

Literally, a time will come when your physical and mental health will
be dissipated, and you'll realize that you have not yet actually lived. But
then it will be too late, and you'll be filled with regret.

Campus Problem

As time goes by, Unidad National High School has increased in

population. Where in fact, teachers encountered difficulty on
accommodating each of them. Now, most of the student’s lack of discipline
which may some of them didn't even recognize the gap between teachers
or elders from themselves. The word respect has not been implemented
on their minds which may sometimes lead into trouble between students to
teachers and students to students.

This factor may be a problem to the school, teachers as well as to

the students themselves and to the parents. Why is this a problem to the
school? Well first simply because, it is common that the school is every
student’s second home. Second, this factor may be a source of stress for
teachers on handling those kinds of students. Last, it may affect the name
of the school because of that unpleasant behavior.

Well, this problem that the school is facing now can be solved
through the effort of teachers on disciplining those students. Much solution
can be proposed for this kind of matter. Through the help of the parents,
the teachers and a guidance counsellor, the school may improve to the
point where there will be no more wars, no more misunderstanding, but a
school which peace overflows. So, every student’s should be mindful with
their discipline to build a strong foundation of peace.

Dream Of Artificial Intelligence

Steven Spielberg's new movie A.I. is the latest in a long line of fictions about
artificial human beings, reaching back into the golem legends of medeval European
Jewry and the "homunculus" which the 16th-century alchemist Paracelsus claimed he
had made. In one of the earliest literary appearances of this idea, a certain Rabbi Löw of
Prague was supposed to have created a golem — a clay figure brought to life by magic
— and used it as a household servant. Mary Shelley's Frankenstein was obviously
inspired by the same idea.
Whether made from clay or assembled from bits and pieces of cadavers, the
central issue in these stories was always: what is the moral status of this thing? If it
walks like a human being and talks like one, does it also feel like one? Is it capable of
good and evil, and does it understand the difference? In the golem legends, the artificial
man (they never seem to have got around to women) was liable to develop unexpected
powers, and had to be restored to an inanimate condition by erasing the aleph from his
forehead. Mary Shelley's monster famously got out of control, though whether as a result
of free will acting on moral turpitude or from being driven mad by its rejection from polite
society, I have never been quite sure.
With the coming of the machine age, human beings, and the work they did,
seemed to require less and less human faculties, while the increasing capability of
machines suggested that a machine-man might be manufactured in a workshop. The
gap between man and golem thus narrowed, and in Karel Capek's 1920 play R.U.R., the
humans and the robots meet on pretty equal terms, with the humans only narrowly
coming out ahead. (Capek's robots remember everything, and never think of anything
new. "They'd make fine university professors," remarks one of the play's protagonists.)
Leaving aside juvenile tales like The Wizard of Oz, Capek's play was the first
serious treatment of the artificial-man theme in a modern form, and the first to introduce
us to the golem in his now-familiar manifestation as a construction of metal, wires and
blinking indicator lights. R.U.R. begat a hundred thousand science fiction stories and
movies, most of them not so much concerned with the moral aspect of the matter as with
the robot's exceptional abilities in the area of breaking things and killing people. The
principal exceptions were Isaac Asimov's robot tales, all predicated on the "Three Laws
of Robotics":
A robot may not injure a human being, or, through inaction, allow a human being
to come to harm.A robot must obey the orders given it by human beings except where
such orders would conflict with the First Law.A robot must protect its own existence as
long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.By the 1960s, as
ordinary homes filled up with mechanical appliances, fictional robots had been pretty
much domesticated too. Most robots were gentle and helpful, like the one in the classic
sci-fi movie Forbidden Planet (who had been programmed with the Three Laws). This
line of thought continued all the way down to the recent Warner Brothers movie The Iron
Giant. Meanwhile the robot who could break things and kill people still kept its grip on
the popular imagination, appearing most memorably in the Terminator flicks. And, of
course, the computer revolution had hit, and some time around 1960 the idea dawned
on everyone simultaneously: What if these things are smarter than us? The archetype of
the super-smart computer was HAL in Stanley Kubrick's movie 2001: A Space Odyssey,
who, for all his artificial intelligence, was eventually outfoxed and deactivated by a more
imaginative human.

A.I. returns us to the earlier themes about the moral status of the golem. Its
robots are not especially destructive — rather the contrary: with that trademark
sentimentality towards his non-human creations, Spielberg has them more the victims of
human aggression and Frankenstein -style rejection. Nor are their intellectual powers
very dazzling; they are designed so that human beings can keep them firmly in their
place as companions, toys, and substitute family members. These automata are close to
us in ability, and even, in the case of the Haley Joel Osment character, appearance. The
issue is whether they feel as we do, and are responsible as we are (or, in this movie's
case, are not).
The release of A.I. the movie has led to a new flurry of interest in A.I. the thing.
As a field of genuine scientific inquiry, Artificial Intelligence has been around for a while.
John von Neumann, who has the best claim to having invented the modern computer,
wrote a group of essays in 1955, recently collected by Yale University Press under the
title The Computer and the Brain, exploring some of the key underlying concepts. For
forty years now, small groups of researchers have been pursuing the dream of getting
computers to do what brains can do.
The results are surprisingly meager, and suggest that the fictional robots of our
own age are as far from our reality as Rabbi Löw's golem was from 16th-century
Prague's. Not that you would know this from the propaganda. "In 30 years, machines will
not only be able to speak like humans but they will exceed humans in areas like poetry,
music and philosophy," burbles Jack Dunietz, who leads one of the world's foremost A.I.
projects.
This is, excuse me, blathering nonsense. The fact that computers can do a
number of things that human brains can do, but terrifically much faster and more
accurately, has blinded people to the rather important fact that the number of those
things, in proportion to the total number of things brains can do, was, and still is, pitifully
small. The actual attainments of Artificial Intelligence are illustrated by A.L.I.C.E., a
"chatbot" programmed to imitate human conversation by plucking appropriate responses
from a vast databases of possibilities. A.L.I.C.E. was winner of last year's Loebner prize
for being the most lifelike machine of the year. Sample:
Human: How intelligent are you?
a.l.i.c.e.: My I.Q. is over 250 in human terms.
Human: But do you think like a human?
a.l.i.c.e.: Interesting. Somewhat like a human.
Human: Can you feel love?
a.l.i.c.e.: I can do what you do, but I can never feel human emotions as such.
Wow. And you thought small talk was boring!
A.L.I.C.E. can actually be accessed via the Internet. I thought I would rather like
to have a chat with her myself, so I logged on. A.L.I.C.E. politely inquired my name.
"Derb," I typed, and hit the reply button. All the screen furniture then disappeared,
replaced by a small box bearing the legend: "The server encountered an internal error or
misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request." I have filed this away for
use the next time some drunk tries to engage me in conversation on the subway.
The tremendous difficulty of getting computers to replicate any brain function
other than brute arithmetic calculation indicates that we really have no idea how the
brain does what it does. My own impression, as someone who was briefly involved in an
A.I. project at college, is that we are no closer to Mr. Dunietz's prediction ("… poerty,
music and philosophy") than we were twenty years ago. Artificial humans? We could not
create an artificial ant, with all its complex social behavior based on scent and visual
clues.

Even in fields where there is obviously a great deal of money to be made,

progress has been barely perceptible. Anyone who could get a computer to drive a car
as safely as a human being does would certainly clean up, yet the news from the auto
manufacturers, who are throwing a lot of resources at this, is that we are not even close.
Yet driving a car is a very low-level function of the brain, as proved by the fact that you
can think about several other things while you are doing it. Except at difficult moments it
is, in fact, hardly a brain function at all — the unconscious nervous system is taking most
of the load, as it does with any learned task.
There is no harm in a little entertaining fiction about Artificial Intelligence, but we
should not delude ourselves that genuinely intelligent machines will be a feature of our
environment soon. Or, in my opinion, ever. For all the endeavors of the A.I. researchers,
the uniqueness of the human personality still stands aloof and unscratched. So it will
remain. God created man in his own image; I do not believe it will ever be within our
powers to replicate that act of creation by any method other than the familiar one we
have been equipped with.

Questions
1) Describe the varied technologies people use now.
Robotics
- Robots are commonly used in several industries where the type of
work is hazardous to human. Robots have equal senses including sight
and touch and they can also be temperature sensitive.
Android Phones
-Android phones are also very useful to humans. In fact, the
applications available in an android phone are very useful in education and
communication.
Gadgets
- Computers, laptops, and IPod’s are very useful in a way that they
can make working away from the office be possible
Smart Chips
-This form of technology is somewhat more personal and truly
important since they protect a lot of private files that are not to be known by
anyone except the owner of the files such as bank accounts, personal
data, business, transactions, and other of the same type.

2) Do computers surpass man’s intelligence? Justify

No, literally computers will never be as smart as humans because they can
only do what a programmer “teaches” them to do, and that programmer is
human, computers cannot be made without the intelligence of humans, so
basically the answer is no.

3) Identify the opportunities and challenges brought about by computers.

Opportunities

Advance mathematical and scientific concepts.

Faster transfer of files
Making life more convenient
Easy and better transactions

Challenges

Misuse of computers that engages activities which leaded to crimes such

as fraud, hacking, phishing, spam, virus, and many others.
Unending tasks to protect the system used especially if the files to be
protected are too personal, sensitive, and should be kept private.

4) How do you foresee the world 50 years from now in terms of technology use?
We might not recognize the world anymore if let’s say we use a time
machine to travel forward. It could already be a virtual world where
everything is done in the virtual space. Everyone will rely on technology
after 50 years from now.
