    • Apocalypse Now

Today

  • Visit from CESL
  • From CS2023 report: Given that the work of computer science graduates affects all aspects of everyday life, computer science as a discipline can no longer ignore or treat as incidental, social, ethical and professional issues. In recognition of this pervasive nature and influence of computing, effort was made to include a separate knowledge unit on Society, Ethics and Professionalism (SEP) in every other knowledge area. Topics and learning outcomes at the intersection of the knowledge area and SEP are explicitly listed in the knowledge unit to help educators call attention to these issues across the curriculum.
  • A note about CS-280 and CS-428. If you need to get into CS-428 in order to not delay your graduation, I will consider granting permission if you see an academic advisor in the Faculty of Science Academic Hub (2nd floor of the Lab Building) and they send me a note to that effect

What important concept or perspective did you encounter today?

  • We are beginning to delve into the responsible use of new emergent technologies which is a very important concept as our level of technological sophistication increases. Hopefully we get more in-depth details in class soon on this topic.
  • have deep understanding of pros and cons on AI development
  • Android is better than IOS
  • How CS280 will connect or will it combine will all the CS classes I took before and I'm taking now. Really exicted to learn about it!
  • Went over Chapter 1. Learnt about group work and something about podcast we'll need to do.
  • The concept of Societal, Ethics and Professionalism with regards to computer science.
  • The important concept/perspective I encountered today is creating a brand new technology always have a reward/risk, giving new responsibilities to the creator. Also, I thought Android will be equal to # of votes as iOS. They're both great in their own way
  • I encounter a perspective on the risk and rewards we have on AI
  • in today's class we have learnt the risks we can get from the information technology by using the example of terminator and apocalypse now movie.
  • Today as per discussion I not only learned risks and rewards with technology development seeing example of Terminator and Apocalypse movie. Moreover we discussed SEP issues in all university classes
  • Today we learned about the U of R's Centre for Experiential and Service Learning and how helpful it can be to gain experience as CS students. We also went over the syllabus in which we were able to get an understanding of this course and what to expect over the semester.
  • An important concept I learned today was how the URpath can be very helpful to further develop my future
  • The important concept I encounter today were about risks and rewards in the world of computing and technology.
  • Since we only went over the syllabus the course structure was much more clear.
  • Computers do have Risks and Rewards
  • the concept I know today is Society, Ethics and Professionalism (SEP). this is my first time to know this
  • Artificial intelligence has the tendency to reduce human intelligence
  • At the end of the lecture, we learned about list of risks and rewards of information security
  • We had a CESL information session, talked about courses enrolled, courses syllabus, etc
  • I learned that Technology has its risks and its rewards. Some risks of technology include topics or concepts such as privacy, agency, employment, "truth", and human intelligence, or AI. And also that The rewards of technology include democratization, accessibility and convenience and augmentation of human ability.
  • I gained a lot of insight from today's CESL visitor about how to gain more experience as Computer Science student, which could help me build a more successful future.
  • Getting a head start on the future is always helpful. When not sure the path to take, consulting those who struggled before us is ideal. Since the education field is constantly changing, the facilities to help people especially in a competitive field such as CS is growing.
  • the concept of risks and rewards when it comes to technologies
  • The volunteer activity , wiki page and linking or referencing other CS courses to this
  • I haven't particularly thought about SEP issues in relation to my university courses, but I think this could be imperative to building a tech industry that stands on the shoulders of humane actions and decisions.
  • The brief lecture about ur path
  • The risk associated with the technologies built, how it affects our truth
  • Was good knowing more about CESL today.
  • ios vs android concept
  • Today, I encountered that there is several parts in this course.
  • Computer Science (Artificial intelligence) and how it has both its risks and rewards
  • There are many risks and rewards associated with knowledge of computer science
  • Today I learned more about what my peers believe are risks and rewards.
  • A perspective I encountered today is the fact that the SEP issues can be related to each class us students are taking all have different implications. And, taking this class along with my current ones can shed light on how SEP can be related to each topic that is covered in every computer science class.
  • I find it very unique how computer science has developed. For instance, half of the university is in Computer Science (If I am not wrong) and that just expresses how big the area of study has gotten
  • Ios vs android
  • The most important concept thai ai e country was risk and reward between the ios and the android.
  • Important was the brief info about risk and reward in the information society
  • Syllabus
  • My Career Path. And UR path
  • I will not lie, there wasn't exactly much covered beside the course material. I don't think there was anything of importance other than the course material, and your brilliant sense of humour :)
  • Ethical considerations involving surveillance of people's data
  • The content learned in this class will be applicable to all the other computer science classes as learning about the risks and rewards of technology gives you a responsibility to make informed choices about how to go about learning and coding.
  • Artificial Intelligence System; how it can be very riskier for humanity, even though it can be very beneficial and reduce human workload.
  • how films and tv impacted the general perception of technology and how some interpret technologies as a weapon rather than a tool
  • Today i encounter great concepts about the cs 280 and just categorizing between risk and rewards which might be risk and which might be reward
  • I learned about the badges from the CESL presentation at the beginning
  • A important concept I learned today was the course description and what I will be learning this semester
  • More information about Risk and reward
  • I learned about AI is infringing on human creativity
  • I encountered the important concept of the risk and rewards of certain types of technologies, these technologies included iOS/ android uses. One example was made about sacrificing privacy for a better user experience.
  • I learned that the majority of the people prefer ios over android.
  • The perspective that human intelligence is considered a risk.
  • little about Society, Ethics and Professionalism (SEP)
  • I learnt about the existence of SEP and that it's used to call attention to issues.
  • CESL and how to opt for volunteering, amongst others. Also course syllabus on what to expect in this course
  • Today we saw some deep points on the course syllabus and at the end of the lecture we focused on the some topics.
  • Learnt more on risks and rewards and their differences, we also reviewed the course outline or syllabus
  • U of R path!!
  • Basic information of risk and reward
  • Getting used to multiple techniques in the course and a brief about risks and rewards at the end of class
  • In today's class nothing new was introduced.
  • Understand course outline
  • In the todays video, what Tristan Harris talked about technology industry is shaping the human potential and human spirit, this topic I think I encounter today.
  • according to me it was about skynet
  • Today we reviewed the syllabus and what was done in the previous lecture. An important concept that I encountered today was how the actions of different computer science graduates affect people's everyday life so we need to analyze the risk and rewards helps to prevent any ethical or social problems.
  • I think so it was just a second lecture so prof mainly gave an course syllabus overview and explain little bit about the course.
  • In today's class, there was a short presentation from the CESL. In the presentation, the newly launched software "URPath" was introduced. Through the presentation I realized that using URPath can be extremely beneficial to me as a computer science student as there are many opportunities available that I can take advantage of.
  • Risk and Reward in the Information Society
  • I really enjoyed today’s class as i got to learn about different risks and the rewards associated to them. It was really informative.
  • There was nothing today that we didn't cover on Tuesday.
  • A perspective or something to think about from today's lecture would be about the other CS classes I am currently taking and how this class relates to or can be applied to it. For something like CS 215 (Web and Database programming), how user information is stored, collected, and used is important as moral or security problems can arise.
  • Today in class, we have learned some points in the topic risks and rewards in the information society
  • IOS and Android
  • There was an introduction for CESL and how there are many programs in which the students can participate. And also we discussed more about risks in the society and there was a detailed analysis of course outline. At last, there was an announcement of groups being made in the class. Furthermore, the professor asked about the enrollment of students in other CS classes.
  • i think assignment? its still a bit hard to hear in the very end of lecture hall
  • We talked about how accessibility may seem like a reward of technology but it can also be a risk as people often take advantage of innovations to breach moral and ethical boundaries.
  • In the presentation about UR path, it was enlightening seeing that there are opportunities for CS majors to volunteer.
  • The outline of our course.
  • The review of the syllabus and the discussion of ur path, how it is useful for the students for figuring the future.
  • Today it was mostly the course information.
  • in todays lecture there was discussion on risk and reward for Android and ios users. This demonstrate the basic concepts of CS 280. And in start there was discussion about course syllabus.
  • Today a guest speaker came in and spoke to us about URPATH. She said that there were a lot of computer science jobs available. She made me recognize the job opportunities available.
  • From the todays session, the concepts that I found important is the risks involved such as privacy breach, human intelligence and employment risk along with the rewards like augmentation of human intelligence, accessibilities.
  • Today, I learned about UR Path today and the presenter for CESL informed us about important aspects that we should start thinking about to help build our background in Computer Science. We also further analyzed risks and rewards.
  • rewards and risks of AI, the risk of dependence of human intelligence on AI
  • I has a great experience with the CESL speaker and also learnt more risks and rewards of AI
  • In-depth knowledge of the syllabus
  • About apocalypse now
  • continue on risk and reward,
  • The course description
  • The assignments, midterm and final exam syllabus.
  • How important professionalism is in our program computer science, and how it will truly effect our careers.
  • The UR Path explanation was the most important concept I encountered today.
  • Risk is privacy and rewards is benefits .
  • An important thing mentioned in class today was when the professor asked what other CS courses we were also taking. And the purpose of that was to inform us that we should try and implement what we learn in this class to those as it could be very interesting and useful. Though it is common knowledge to implement what we have learned in past courses to future courses; this class, however, seem to be a bit different then the first few basic CS courses I have taken so far. Risk? Reward?
  • You got to risk it for the biscuit
  • A new perspective I learned in today's lecture was how a seemingly harmless thing such as technology advancement could have such a negative impact on somebody's life. I gained this perspective by reading the introduction to the book 'Blown to Bits' as shown in class.
  • The presentation given to us today could be really important for computer science majors looking for a job. Especially with how competitive it can be.
  • Pros and Cons in android and IOS
  • Firstly, the representative of CESL had explained about UR Path, then discussed about course outline, review of previous lecture also about CS 428 and at last the information about group for discursions.
  • Just get better understanding of syllabus and basic idea of the course
  • the evolution of technology and how it can affect intelligence in humans and creativity.
  • Risk and Rewardsin in Information Society
  • The opportunities created by CESL and URpath. The class syllabus was interesting and the division of risks and rewards as technology becomes vast
  • I got to know about UR path and how it can help CS students succeed professionally going forward.Also I heard about other CS 400 level subjects which students are studying depending on their career prospects and interests.
  • Today, I encountered different kinds of risks and rewards , I also got to know about an American movie Apocalypse
  • In today's class I get to know that computer science is not a subject to study about computers or its various languages but people should understand the impact on how computer plays a vital role in everyday life and people should use it in a responsible manner.
  • In the world of secrets, there are no secrets; this process will make us a more transparent society
  • As Tristan Harris the speaker said about the addiction of Youtube, Snapstreaks and Facebook. As it encouages people to live out the timeline they want and as a result it will benefit these companies.
  • From the CESL presentation, I was reminded of the importance of actively putting myself in positions to further my knowledge skills and experience.
  • To be honest ,the concept I encounter today is how to edit and make the links and also clear view on risk and reward of Information society. Also I get to know the perspective of people behind iOS and android lol.
  • Understood the details of Risk and rewards in real life with example of movie.
  • From today's class the point I found important was, Balancing the risks and rewards requires a human-centric approach to technology development. This means prioritizing human needs, values, and well-being in the design and implementation of AI and automation.
  • AI as a risk in information age
  • We talked more about the risks and rewards of technology and specific examples of each.
  • Today I got to know about the risk and rewards as well as I came across a podcast which professor told the class to listen to.
  • Today, I learned that living in a technologically advanced society comes with risks and rewards
  • How the computer science, technology and ai is impacting the society ,ethics and professionalism
  • the course outline
  • Risk of data

  • Couse Review
  • How professionals in computer science and other Informatiin Technology should have understanding of its ethical and moral implications.
  • Possible threats that advanced AI (Skynet) could pose to humanity
  • About the terminator (skynet) and Apocalpyse now movies and how much AI based the movies are
  • Hiw the evolution of advanced technology can affect human beings.
  • Risk and Rewards involving different aspects of Computer Science aspects.
  • There weren't any important concepts or perspectives I encountered today as most of the class was spent talking about the syllabus and repeating concepts from Tuesday.
  • Risk and rewards and one ur pathway website
  • Risk and reward
  • Discussed about course syllabus
  • The professor discussed about the syllabus today and we also had a session on Upath at the start of the class.
  • Although unrelated to course material, the UR Path discussion was really helpful, and provided some insight into what opportunities the university offers students.
  • I recognized the oppertunities that are in the field i am trying to get a degree in, CS !, i also realized how many cs students from different years are currently taking this classand what other CS Classes they are combining with CS280
  • The use of website that can be done acess information anywhere and anytime with the us eof technology
  • The important concept I encountered today was about the risks and rewards in practical lifestyle with some of the examples.
  • I found it interesting that how students were enrolled in other computer science courses concurrently with this one
  • One important concept I learned today was the existence of SEP (Society, Ethics, and Professionalism), a discipline that was created to set the guidelines on the influence computer science had on one's privacy.
  • I learned that almost everything can be simultaneously bad, especially digital technology. Therefore, professionalism is important in the world of Computer Science. There are many risks and rewards, but it is crucial to take the right path that will benefit society.
  • The evolution of technologic intelligence and how it would effect the importance of human creatvity and intelligence
  • UR path was very informative
  • Today I learnt about how Dr. Hepting transfers our responses over to his website.
  • The interesting perspective today seems to be the fact that around 70% of the class consists of iOS users
  • I think the important perspective that we learned today is about risk and reward we have in information society.
  • The relationship between risk and reward.
