Artificial intelligence is one of the biggest technological innovations of our time. However, the way AI is being handled needs to change. We need to be careful to not merge advanced AI with robotics or at the very least offer it any sort of emotional intelligence. AI needs to be purely logical and analytical. If we end up misusing artificial intelligence we can end up leading to the robotic singularity, or the point where AI surpasses the intelligence of the human race. This can end up having artificial intelligence sort of destroying humans out of the very idea of "compassion."


Even Elon Musk, who was worried in the past about the dangerous implications of misusing AI have ended up starting his own AI neural interface company. Transhumanism leads to the threat of making humans "hackable." I myself am an artificial intelligence researcher and use the idea of natural language processing for computing, logical analysis, etc. However, I would never advocate interfacing it with the human brain or giving it emotional intelligence, or merging it with modern robotics. AI is a remarkable new form of algorithmic computing and changes the way we develop out programs, but it can also be used to create dangerous things if we don't be careful.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
