Yep!
I would define true artifical intelligence by saying that it has to be able to learn new skills on it's own.
I agree. Or at least be able to follow instructions that are not just simply an input code. Like if I ask an artificially intelligent robot to go get me a glass of milk, it should know to go to the fridge, find the milk by moving other objects, and then pouring me a glass of milk.
Yeah it definitely needs to be able to understand language intuitively. And just know things.
Or it I told it to go learn Advanced Anatomy. The next day it should be able to then teach me advanced anatomy. Oh yeah, languages would probably need to be programmed in it's database or something. Have you signed up for classes yet?
Yeah totally. It would totally help with that class. Well I can't seem to be able to add stuff to my cart. So I'm just going to do it at midnight haha.
Is your add day tomorrow? Because if it is, then you had to have your cart submitted by 6pm today. Otherwise you'll just have to sign up at midnight.
Yeah my add day is tomorrow. That's probably why I couldn't add things to my cart when I tried.
I signed up for my classes two or three days ago and I think my schedule is good. It's 16.5 credits, but still busy enough for me not to get too lazy.
So yeah I'll just do it at midnight. It's shouldn't be too bad Yeah thats a good load. It's better than 18 thats for sure. I think mine will be 14.5 but I'm a little worried for Econ haha I hear it's really hard.
Yeah, hopefully midnight isn't that big of a deal. Since tomorrow is the first or second day to sign up you will hopefully still get all your preferred classes/professors. And you are being a TA next semester for physiology, right? Yeah, Econ takes time, but I hear the average grade is like a B+ or A-, as long as you don't get stuck with Kearl.
Yeah I think it should be good. A lot of freshman have to wait until like the 31st to sing up. And yeah I want to be a TA. I'm meeting with the professor this week to work out the schedule. Okay I will not get stuck with him! The other teacher is Price. Have you heard anything about him?
Oh that's exciting! Do you get credit for being a TA? I haven't heard anything about Price.
There is an option for getting credit but there is also an option to do it as a job. I would probably want to do it as a job
Oh okay, that's how research works too. I feel like being a Physiology TA is an awesome way to prepare for dental school.
Yeah I'm really excited! I just really liked that class and Hansen was so funny so I would enjoy sitting in on his lectures again. Plus I would like doing the test reviews. I would finally be that TA that everyone wants to listen to to learn whats going to be on the test because they don't understand anything in class
Yeah, I'm super excited for you! I would love to be a physiology TA next semester too, but we'll see if I do well enough. Hahaha yeah, you will be their saving grace haha
Yeah I think the requirement is you have to have an A. I think I barely pulled it off with a 91 overall.
Nice! I hope I can pull it off too. I just got a message that all my classes we added successfully for winter semester! Woohoo! *were added
Yeah. You can! Oh sweet! I'm gonna try and do my best to add some of the same ones so we can study together. It's worked out for like 4 semesters now might as well keep it going haha!
Yeah, do it! It makes a huge difference for me having someone to study with. Plus it's just more fun having classes with you haha
Yeah I agree. I study way better when I'm not by myself. I wish they would let us do groups tests all the time too. We would probably get 100% on all of them
Yeah, then we'd have much better grades right now.
Seriously. But you know there is still time. We can still pull through and improve.
Yes, we can do it!
Yeah! So how's the homework coming?
Maybe I just need to stay on campus longer. I am always productive when I'm on campus, but when I get home I get distracted with other things that need to be done. The homework is coming alright. I'm just reading through the online marketing textbook, preparing for the quiz.
I'm the same way. But I also run into the struggle of staying on campus too long then I feel like I miss out at home. It's a balance. That's good! I literally have this chat open and my homework open in split screen mode to do both at once haha.
Yeah, Kate doesn't get home until 4 or 5pm every day anyways so I wouldn't miss much. I usually get home by noon every day and have 4 or 5 hours home alone.
Yeah if I was in that situation I would just stay on campus and do homework in the library. Then when I got home I would be done with everything!
It would be better if I just stayed on campus for another two or three hours and got homework done, then go home and clean the house before kate gets home.
Yeah that sounds like a good plan!
I have split screen right now too! haha
Especially on Monday's because you are done with classes at 10AM
And yeah, I think I will start going to the library more often.
Split Screen is the best!
Yeah, I love Monday's haha
I'm just working on Physics homework right now.
How are you doing in Physics?
Pretty good! I get 100% on all the tests so far it's just the homework that is easy to fall behind on.
Oh wow! That's super good man! Keep it up!
Thanks! I do what you say with the Equation sheet I just use that during the test and that's all you need!
It's a smart way to get through the problems, I think. That way you are less likely to get confused by a problem.
Yeah totally. You just need to know which equation to use and how to use it. But other than that it's pretty easy. Although there was this one Ladder problem that really made me think.
Yeah, the questions will definitely get harder as you get towards the end of the semester, but you can do it.
Yeah. Thank you. How was Physics 106? I'm taking that next semester and I hear it's a lot different than 105.
I haven't taken it. I had it for about a week in summer term, but I decided to drop it because I was getting burnt out. I've heard it's harder than 105 because the concepts aren't as straight forward. It takes more studying and working with TA's. That's what I've heard at least. Hopefully I won't have to take it. It depends on if the dental school I go to accepts AP credit.
Oh yeah that would be nice. I didn't take AP physics so I don't have that option but I tend to do pretty well with concept. And I'll just ask the TA's whats up. They usually help out a lot.
Yeah, I'm sure you will do well. Especially if you know the 105 concepts really well. Are you excited for any of your classes in Winter?
Yeah I hope so. Yes I'm excited for Orthopedic Impairments and Therapeutic Exercise. I think it will be really hard but really useful. Also Econ 110. It will be hard but again I think the information will be useful.
Yeah both of those classes will be tough, but good.
Yeah. What about you? What classes are you excited for?
I'm super excited for Exercise Physiology! I feel like it will be as interesting as Human Physiology because of the topics, but then even better because it will incorporate exercise and sports.
Yeah I totally agree. That one will be super cool too! Are you still planning on doing Spring Term?
I don't know. I am sort of planning on not getting in to dental school this first application cycle so I will probably not take classes in the spring (though I will register, just in case) and then just take classes next winter. I meant Fall, not winter.
So would you just use next Spring to Study for the DAT? If that happens.
Yeah, that's my plan at least. I know I can do a lot better than I did so if I just took spring term off to study for the DAT and reapply, then I think I can be a great applicant. Maybe I'd take a class or two in the summer as well. I don't really know yet. Or maybe I'll get into dental school and I won't even have to worry about all of this!
Yeah. Well I hope it doesn't come to that! I just got an email from Universtiy of Tennessee today that said they just barely received my application and started to review it. And it's October so they are way behind the game.
Oh wow! That's crazy haha
It could just be that some schools haven't even seen yours yet.
Yeah, we shall see.
Yeah well I hope it works out for the best!
Well, I think I should go. I'm going to keep doing homework and talk to Kate. See you Wednesday!
We are going to be so sad when we have to move away from Utah and you guys and all our friends. Okay sounds good! Talk to you later!
