Good morning!
Good morning! How would feel if two computers started talking with each other??
I think that would be really cool! It would show that there has been a huge advancement in the tech world and it was be amazing to see how it goes one from there
It would be really cool!! I just love to see the advancements in technology, but I also would be scared because they may put smart us?
hey they may
Did you ever hear about Facebook trying it??
eventhough I think the robots or computers could become like us and very close to our level they won't be able to reproduce and I think that is what will distinguish between us and them
That is very true we are still very different and also I think that they won't have that same moral composition as humans do. That understanding of a moral code
interesting what if we were able to program the moral code in to them? or what if we were able to have them create their own moral code? would they be considers as human beings?
We might consider them as human beings? They would be able to understand as we did. With them creating their own, we can hope they create part of it to be in harmony with us. I think though in some sense yes they would be a very human like figure I am curious though as what will be the next greatest technology advancement in like 5-10 years?
right!? Technology has grown so fast over the past decade and now everyone has a smart phone. I wander what gadget we would have next?
So true!! Like we are just getting add ons to our smart technology. I wonder if that will be what it is for like everything. Just becomes a smart tech in every aspect of life?
does that sometimes scare you? I think because of technology our lives have become so fast paced that it seems hard to keep up
Yeah it kind of does. Don't get me wrong, technology advancement is great! But I just hate to see us move to fast and miss so much!!
Yeah I agree but there are a lot of cool things happening right now its insane! I am most excited for the VR stuff
Yeah that will be cool to see that really take off!! I hope that take really well because that will really change everything!! I think it would even change training for jobs?
oh my goodness yes there is a program right now on the VR where there is a car mechanic simulator and it has real cars in it and you can learn how to change the components and fix the cars and then learn to do it in real life
wow that is incredible!! There are so many possibilities. Do you think that this could lead to holograms?
I think so. There are some technologies right now that can project things like holograms but we are so far away from like lets say Star Wars holograms
I would totally agree that we are far away from it. That will probably take us hundreds of years maybe. I would love to see VR become some form of communication?
I know right! That would be really cool I think it would be cool to have super cool video games come in to it where lets say play Call of Duty for example
That would certainly make games a bit more realistic and help to understand maybe more?
maybe Have you played on a VR set before?
I have not. I have only seen others play on them. Have you?
yes I work with them at my work in the BYU library the BYU library has a VR set you can play with and experiment!
Wow that is really cool!! That must be somewhat of an exciting job? That is a good thing to know. Definitely will have to check it out.
It is really fun and I actually learn a lot!
Is technology like your field of study at BYU?
I am in industrial design program so yes I do work with a lot of technology. What about you are you interested in technology?
Oh ok and yes I am. I am going into computer science. As of right now, computer networking, but still a little undecided.
cool cool. Why computer science? Ill be right back!!!
Well I really like technology and what it can do, but I really find computers interesting Ok sounds good
That is so cool! My boyfriend is in the IT program and is a senior so he knows all about that stuff. I remember he was working on creating VPNs and connecting routers and things like that
Oh that is pretty cool!! I hope to work on things like that. That is the same direction I was going with my studies.
then maybe computer science isnt the direction for you computer science is more code based
As far as I was looking. That is one aspect of it, but there are many others, like web design and networking like IT.
Yes they do cover those things. I believe in IT they dive deeper in to networking and also IT is the leader in Cyber Security at BYU. They also offer advanced networking class classes and I dont think CS does What my boyfriend tells everyone is that anyone who is interested in the technology field should take IT 101 because it really shows what that major has to offer. He used to
Oh ok that is interesting. I will have to look into and see what they have and what more I can learn to help.
be a Computer Science major and he switched so fast to it because he didn't just want to code in the basement all his college life
That is a good point. That would be pretty boring and would suck doing that all day!!
that is computer science for like 3 years computer science is in the basement of the talmage building (math building) and they have like no windows. I remember my boyfriend said that because the IT building had huge windows he converted to it (haha kind of joking but he really hated being in the basement all the time)
Haha that is funny!! What a great way to find new light.
literally ;) he also told me that the Information Technology major has LAN parties and video game parties and some teachers give extra credit for students who attend it because it is supporing the IT clubs
Hmm that sounds like a lot of fun!!! Do you go with him?? I'll be right back!!
no problem
Thanks for that help. I will definitely look into it.
