Political Science

Political Science is a field that is not made for everyone, but it is one that allows people to make a change in the lives of others.  You have the power to change the course of history and the fate of the present and future generations in the country, state, or town that you live in.  This is the reason that I was born, or placed here on this earth, which ever people prefer to say.

Senior life is a life of great pleasure.  No one can tell us what to do.  We are in charge, we are the leaders of our school and we have privileges that others do not.  However we have the pressure of choosing and applying to a college or university.  The waiting to here from your colleges that you applied to can be difficult and the decision to go to any of the accepted colleges or the joining of the work force or military is just as stressful.  In a short summary it is the first step to the rest of your life!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The themes of the movie "V for Vendetta" are endless, but more or less they do have an end.  Some of those themes are: Personal Accountability, Happiness, and Freedom.  All of those were taken away from the people in the movie.  The primary ideological battle throughout the novel is Fascism vs. Anarchy, but the true struggle lies deeper than that. What really is at the heart of the narrative is the importance of personal accountability on the part of the individual, and in a grander scope, on the part of the collective. Freedom is easy when it isn’t challenged; when it is a considered right, we take it for granted.

Artificial Intelligence is one of the most interesting movies I have ever seen.  A.I. Artificial Intelligence, also known as A.I., is a 2001 American science fiction drama film written, directed, and produced by Steven Spielberg, and based on Brian Aldiss's short story "Super-Toys Last All Summer Long". The film stars Haley Joel Osment, Jude Law, Frances O'Connor,Brendan Gleeson, and William Hurt. Set sometime in the future, A.I. tells the story of David, a childlike android uniquely programmed with the ability to love.

Development of A.I. originally began with director Stanley Kubrick in the early 1970s. Kubrick hired a series of writers up until the mid-1990s, including Brian Aldiss, Bob Shaw, Ian Watson, and Sara Maitland. The film languished in development hell for years, partly because Kubrick feltcomputer-generated imagery was not advanced enough to create the David character, whom he believed no child actor would believably portray. In 1995, Kubrick handed A.I. to Spielberg, but the film did not gain momentum until Kubrick's death in 1999. Spielberg remained close to Watson's film treatment for the screenplay. The film was greeted with generally favorable reviews from critics and grossed approximately $235 million. A small credit appears after the end credits, which reads "For Stanley Kubrick."

AI

Roughly speaking, Artificial Intelligence is the study of man-made computational devices and systems which can be made to act in a manner which we would be inclined to call intelligent. The birth of the field can be traced back to the early 1950s. Arguably, the first significant event in the history of AI was the publication of a paper entitled "Computing Machinery and Intelligence" by the British Mathematician Alan Turing. In this paper, Turing argued that if a machine could past a certain test (which has become known as the 'Turing test') then we would have grounds to say that the computer was intelligent. The Turing test involves a human being (known as the 'judge') asking questions via a computer terminal to two other entities, one of which is a human being and the other of which is a computer. If the judge regularly failed to correctly distinguish the computer from the human, then the computer was said to have passed the test. In this paper Turing also considered a number of arguments for, and objections to, the idea that computers could exhibit intelligence.
