HCI

HCI

I learned about human-computer interaction(HCI) this week.
This is key point that has implications for the aesthetic, ethics and evaluation of human- computer interaction, and people often interact with media technologies as though the technologies were people. HCI has questions related ethics, aesthetics & teleology, design. HCI has improved as tool. For example, there are memex, sketchpad, NLS, xerox alto, apple lisa, macintosh powerbook, www.
If we view objects, technologies and natural phenomenon as if they do, in fact, have goals and intentions, then we will design like an artificial intelligence resercher. On the other hand, if we view objects, technologies and natural phenomenon as if the just look like they have goals and intentions, then we will design like a tool builder for human users or operator of our tools.

Artificial Intelligence

Artificial Intelligence

Alan Turing is founder of computer science, artificial intelligence, mathematician, philosopher, codebreaker. He suggested 'imitation game'. It is played with three people, a man, a woman, and an interrogator who may be of either sex. The interrogator determine which of the other two is the man and which is the woman. The man's object is that the interrogator make wrong answer, and the woman help the interrogator. If a michine takes the part of the man, what will happen? This question replaces that can machines think?

So, There is artificial intelligence that is the science of making machines do things that would require intelligence as if done by human. Artificial intelligence's areas are knowledge representation, programming languages, natural language understanding, speech understanding, vision, robotics, machine learning, and planning. Example of planning is GPS that reuired a full and accurate model of the "state of the world".

Social Networks

Social Networks

What is the networks? I think network is a relationship.For example, there are social, political, economic relationships and interdisciplinary. I am amazed that "you and me 6 degrees of separation". It means we are associated socia networks.

Social networks exist as science. It's important concept is interdisciplinary. Social networks as technology have email, newsgroups, and weblogs. The prsesnt day, art use network drawing.
