The documentary video from HITRECORD website had used many cut scenes from many different people around the world each one having different characteristics such as different skin color and culture, all answering the one question:” what is it mean to be human?”

The video was compiled using crowd sourcing material mean, which mean using people as main material for the project, the larger amount of people participate the better. By being able to use this in the video, it displays of many people’s emotion, their feelings, chaotic events and their cultural routines to an extent hoping to inform the watcher on media to see the true color of the world we live in.

Its impact to make people feel better about the world especial during the pandemic and the only way to connect with each other is on internet.

Unlike self made videos, instead of focus on one person and being drive with only one direction topic, Crowed sourcing videos like the video got to connect better  and more variety of content when it is a produce by group of people .Show casing a variety of different images and human personality of what they are passionate about, their definition of living as human being are all different and individual.

 “ Dystopia or Utopia 

Anyone who are fan of the original blade runner, properly have different perspective of the world today. The movie was about an ex-policeman named Richard Deckark who gets promoted as a special agent and given a special mission to terminate a group of rouge androids, whilst on this mission he starts to question his very own identity. The movie shows risks of the life that cyberpunk dystopia world and artificial intelligence could become a danger to the human kind.

Reality 

Even though in fact the movies was showed at the time of an idea how 2019 would be like from back then perspective. But we now know none of that ever happened, because humans still live a life where robots are assistants and can’t develop their own conscious, emotion or ideas like a human.

Discussion

·         Utopia view perspective 

Let’s look at the closet smart AI technologies that human are popular interacted with nowadays.

There are evidences and studies showing that Artificial Intelligent (AI) like Alexa.. for example, is actually benefit human especially through tech house hold assistant as well as communication with each other on daily life basic rather than harming.

Things like:

Drop in

Calling

Reminder

Alert   

Become easier to management, and there is no specific thread that shows AI assistants could harm human. Because there are down function of the technology itself that can only be fixed by human, tech can’t simply be developed to have better communication or recognition ability  by themselves.

·         Dystopia view perspective

Same with Alexa, there are reports saying that Alexa been automatically record messages and sent to random number, laughing weirdly.  

So the fact that it elevate people privacy and taking personal data still bring many uncertain about these AI devices

So the possibility is the world in the future is just technology that could spy on us and that it will bring a potential threat to the world in the future from dystopia gadget spying on people is unacceptable.

 “PARRIS ATTACK 2015...

The story

The Paris attack was one of the most horrific events in the 21st century that many people won’t ever forget. The story happened in Paris, when the audiences still remain unaware along with the president are watching the soccer game battle between France and Germany, outside the France soccer stadium, a suicide bomber detonated his explosive vest, not long after another suicide bomber occur. Afterwards, policemen and emergency services were called to numerous places within France as a series of shooting at Paris bars and also at a concert, news sources claimed that it was an Islamic terrorist organization. More than a hundred people have lost their lives and their loved ones, many countries sympathized and payed tribute to France on media and Facebook as they have experienced shocking event in history.

 Policemen

Many people claim after the accident, that the police force was decried “poor strategic and poorly operated”. People said that it took 20 t0 30 min AFTER it ended for the security enforces to reach the places where the killings and shootings happened. Meanwhile, many other accidents keeping occur, one by one and it seems that it was simply too much for the police to keep in control as there were many cases.

 Terrorists on the internet

Terrorists could communicate each other through the deep web or highly secure website that no one could decipher. This may have been one of the reasons why the French defense intelligent agency couldn’t detect these communications in advance as these incidents were being planned.

There is evidence showing that they use twitter to thread and convey massages before the incident happen and it was been planned before, wasn’t just an incident.

 Evidence

These events bring many horrifying videos and pictures of the victims during these events proving the attacks are unwatchable and brutal. Many survivors took videos as evidence for the public, some are very disturbing. This brings a great concern to France’s security ability as well for the management of the government from keeping their citizen safe from the outside threat.

 Enforcement

The Unfortunate side effect of terrorist attacks the uproar that the country generates due to these events and this uproar on media outlets can be misguided to innocent people that had nothing to do with the event.

France has recently passed new laws to liberate French Islam from foreign influences, increasing education on French Islam, helping improve housing and reduce poverty.

“THE IMPACT OF ALEXA TO HOUSE WHOLE CONVERSION  

Siri was first released to the market on the 4th of October 2011, on the iPhone as a Virtual assistant for their customers, many years later APPLE produced another product focused on Siri called APPLE Home Pod. allowing consumers to connect with artificial intelligence, provide an at-home personal assistant, but even though APPLE was the first to get Siri out to the masses other companies such as Google & Amazon have also brought their own virtual assistant devices. 

I’ve personally had hands-on experience with all three artificial intelligences and all I can say is that the Amazon Echo inbuilt with Alexa is the cream of the crop in terms of virtual assistants below is a breakdown of the Amazon Echo (Amazon Alexa)

Question: “ Do I think that life would be so much easier by having Alexa?’

The answer: “Yes, definitely! ”

Alexa’s target was to be a part of the people living and especially their need in daily routine like (reminder event, create a shopping list or telling a story.. etc), which in general the idea of having Alexa in the house becomes pretty much handy to the majority of the public. But of course, there are other complications as well as conspiracies that giving Alexa a bad reputation.

Positive

Let’s talk about the positive impact first.

Alexa is a smart hub that allows other smart devices to connect, once a device is connected the user will be able to control all the functions that the device has to offer instead of just basic settings. The user will also be able to set up the devices to be automated by a scheduled or user-controlled, some functions that the user can control are:

Checking the daily news.

Control the brightness of a light

Freely changing the temperature of the house thermostat

Calling other Alexa devices

Negative

Some users have shown that there are some technical problems when using Alexa and from my perspective, as an Alexa user I also face these same issues. The voice recognition software and the PA system occasionally have problems, but these problems are usually when there is a lot of background noise. As there are also dozens of reports saying that it has been recording/messaging a stranger out of your contacts. Some members of the public believe that “Big Brother” is listening in on them as the device is always listening.

The guardian quoted that “... Alexa, like a vampire, must be invited into your home. The only truly effective power you can wield over this technology is not to use it.”

Ultimately still, the idea of welcoming Alexa OR other similar virtual assistant devices is nowadays being more open to people mainly because it owns convenience and will be a crucial need for the next generations. But the possibility of some other threat could be existed by using these devices..is still a question.

To date Nintendo has sold 26.04 million units and it will continue to grow as they release more updates.

Cannot deny that despite all the good things that games could particularly bring to people during the pandemic but there is also a negative side effect if people spend too much time on video game. One of these negative impacts is cases of addiction and their effect on their mental stage. The target usually is teenager and children are the most concern victim of this issue.

Causing these people to be unable to tell the different between the game’s environment and the real world around them, becoming a great danger to the society and to people around them.

There are games which being contribute positive knowledge like …. Helping the public, informing them on how to survive a pandemic and a way to rebuild civilization. Therefore, it gives society the power of ideas to solve every concern of the world problem

“Media on presidential election 2020

The presidential election for the United States is probably one of the most important events in the history of America as well as the world, to decide who going to be the next leader of America for the next 4 years. In this current election Joe Biden has been elected as president of America, even though it is not official by the trump litigation but the reaction from people all over the world and American seems couldn’t be happier. But there are questions that still need answers.

Discussion, question

Let’s look at all the media campaign that President Obama, Hillary Clinton, and President Joe Biden:

Obama is a storyteller, you can see in the way he speaks. It is attractive and conveys messages so well and so good to the media that even the American citizens love it. But in the opposite, Joe isn’t good at speeches; his speech is more calm and slow.

So why? What is the reason for the success of these 2 presidents even though their way of conveying messages through the screen of media is totally different? And why is FOXNews turn against trump?

And for Hillary Clinton, even though everybody and even the news the media said that she will win, but Trump was the ultimate winner in the 2016 election. So what went wrong?

The truth is the media is not always right. Part of the democratic success was a strategic approach from the Democrat’s media campaign as well as the news media on television and other podcasts. But by using this strategy they were willing to risk everything to obtain there position.

Disadvantages

Media bubble

Republican support stuck in their bubble, people using FB or Instagram being attached with their bias information so they end up following their own bias believes

Fake news

The possibilities of people being delivered false news are highly possible, news is not fact or true about the real issues at hand.

Manipulate people

Controlling the citizen’s opinion and controlling the number of votes.

Advantages

Easy to convey messages

Media is the easiest way to transfer politician ideas to the public either like it or not. It is the most efficient way to receive messages so people will take action to vote.

Best way to research

There are a million different types of information and social media is the only way and the quickest way to research

Best way to know how to vote

Media helps million of people to register to vote making them acknowledge their ballot, and due time

Alexa is a smart home device assistance that has been a part of in every family household daily funtion. 

Schedule calendar

Alarm

Music control

Free-hand calling

Despite of the convenience of Alexa bring to the human being. Some people still concern about Alexa always listen function, this bring out many conspiracy and assuming that people are being violate their privacy through Alexa devices.

Despite the fact that many people are having this concern but somehow the Amazon company still showing that there are a lot of Alexa buyer who buy the product which help to gain the profit to the company.

It is show that most of people would still choose to use Alexa because of it convience despite of the violate user private information potential. This could be that is because many people don’t believe of the conspiracy or they choose to ignore the issue instead.

In the end, study still hasn’t been able to prove that it is the fact Alexa being truly listening and violate the user information or not? Even though there are many cases report that Alexa been listen and sending out to others the user conversation.

But in that saying, it is also could be said that the potential of Alexa thread on human are still could be exist and human should be persuasion and accept the consequence for bringing the device inside of their house. Convince and Privacy, those are still remain a choice that user need to decide for them self

“Gamming tech and parenting, which one to blame?

The negative effects of gaming on children’s health has been discussed numerous times in the media  since the world embrace tech development, as the world becomes more advanced so does the need for entertainment,  becoming more demanding and gaming  companies need to keep producing more games to reach those technological advancements (Ps4, Xbox..)

But the one who is the most affected by the world is surely the young generation as they are in a constant state of learning. Whilst in this stage of life they are susceptible to the negative effects from the game that they are exposed to causes real life issues if it is not being handled in the right way. Which is a big fear to adults, especially adults who have children of their own .

Reason children become more aggressive

Wrong parenting method

Some of the parents tend t to express fear to the child by scolding, yelling in order to stop them and educated them, warning that it is something they are not supposed to do.

But they don’t know that it is in fact it is them that somehow encoring the behavior cause children they unconsciously copy that behavior from their parent during their personality development is not complete and still growing.

click here for video of a gammer get revenge to his dad

Heavy content games

Nowadays, there are video game come up with a variety of contents (cooking, spelling ..etc), those like

Cooking mama

Freefall spelling

Preschool Learning Games for Kids & Toddlers

but there are also games that contain heavy and negative content like killing, gun shooting( PUBG, Outlast, Fortnite ...etc), Children become angrier toward things that don’t go their way.

The Vox stated “...people who played Grand Theft Auto V were more likely to cheat in a raffle and commit aggressive acts toward other gamers (specifically, blasting them with loud noises through headphones) afterward, compared to those who played a pinball or mini-golf game”

If it could happen to an adult, how can it not happen to a child?

Outcome

Event though there are still some opinions that playing games wasn’t the root of the problems but.. one thing is for sure. It will happen if a child continuously interacts with the wrong value and the toxic environment from the game. Not only in child behavior but also teenagers or young adult wasting money on them, it is a great concern and we need a effective solution more than ever.
