Happy last day of class
-
so we'll still see
-
each other. We have an
appointment on Tuesday
-
afternoon
-
So good news.
-
We're going to be in Gym 2
all by ourselves. I guess that it is a
-
sign of how big our class is that we can we
get the gym for ourselves! So
-
I'm going to have a C I reserve
the right to change seating and
-
move you around during the exam
that I'm going to add a seating
-
plan not for your desks. But by
extension of send an email
-
beforehand This is
-
see you wherever important
-
anyway.
-
Morning Okay, so
-
I need to create today the the
summary of our resources that
-
we've done over the time since
the midterm
-
so I promised to do that I'll
get it done today. I've been
-
struggling with you our courses
a bit yesterday and today.
-
Anyone else been struggling with
your courses? No.
-
So from last day
-
here let me
-
me see if your course is going
to cooperate now. Okay, so
-
here's the summary.
-
show you this. So by popular
demand 99 out of 123 responses
-
said an exam should be all
multiple choice.
-
So the word suggestions for
questions
-
so everyone should be able to
see the this questionnaire
-
report
-
the summary Can anyone confirm
that they've been able to look
-
at this
-
so I'll use the suggestions in
-
in questionnaire kinds of
questions the last exam so, all
-
the different suggestions I will
give them and craft them into
-
multiple choice questions okay.
-
So because the exam is on
Tuesday I need to finalize it
-
quickly so that's why I'm not
gonna take any more
-
stress questions
-
so one comment one suggestion
for a question was about
-
information wants to be free
they haven't heard that
-
expression before.
-
You so the full version
-
Well, it's a quote from the
conference where it is
-
originally were said to occur.
Conversation between Stuart
-
Brand and Steve Wozniak and he
ended those two names either of
-
those two names are familiar to
anyone. Steve Wozniak was the
-
other person behind the Apple
Apple computers. Anyway, not
-
quite as famous as Steve Jobs, I
think. So on the one hand, you
-
have the point you're making was
is that information sort of
-
wants to be expensive? Because
it is so valuable. The right
-
information in the right place
just changes your life. On the
-
other hand, information also
wants to be free because the
-
cost is getting it out. is
getting lower and lower all the
-
time. So you have these two
things fighting against each
-
other. So that simplified the
information wants to be free.
-
Information also wants to be
expensive. And that tension will
-
never go not go away.
-
So how does this
-
play? Into the politics in
assessing the semester
-
How is it really?
-
A class discussion?
-
Intellectual property in general
-
I should have done the slides I
could do the copy left on the
-
left and copyright on the right.
-
Miss Moore says a lot of things
that go into the open source
-
umbrella
-
so, it's not all about making
information free any other
-
thoughts? about this?
-
I should say. So encryption is
also an issue here.
-
So that belongs there. But also
here
-
Is So encryption is a way to
protect intellectual property.
-
And it's also used by people who
are live free information as a
-
way to keep information private
and away from authorities
-
right so about two thirds 1/3 In
terms of
-
an afternoon somewhere not
sending stonecrop questions and
-
accepting to me exactly
-
but that's what I'll be aiming
for.
-
So social dilemmas movie is
available for you to review on
-
your own so that's.
-
There were three short clips,
negative particular topics and
-
they they are available So.
-
So the Kemp's presentation
-
PowerPoint is available both as
a PowerPoint PDF
-
on March 21
-
Meeting page.
-
The media has been updated so
the pictures of the whiteboard
-
so finish up today
-
so, today's
-
so I posted
-
I posted the midterm
-
anyone see an email about that
-
okay
-
so I want to talk just a bit
about the infographic
-
submissions. So I wanted to
share them
-
with the class. Not sure if the
way that I'm sharing is breaking
-
your course or just because
people are using your courses
-
too server sensibly. Anyway, as
I was trying to do this was not
-
the sickness whether or not
these energies
-
but I notice that not all the
submissions are in a single page
-
image format. So some people
submitted PDF so PDF can be
-
posted as an image. So I
converted I began to convert
-
them at 300 Dots Per Inch to
JPEG files. But then some of
-
them were not in one page. So I
didn't put I didn't share the
-
ones that weren't in one page.
So
-
let me see if I can show you
what I did. So far with that.
-
There's 12345
-
Nope. Still 45678
-
So if you want
-
So I thought about having
infographics. Infographics as a
-
topic for some exam questions.
But I think that may be a bridge
-
Too. Far.
-
seemed more fair. So they saw
you have some
-
great observations about your
exam question.
-
So I said if you if you're not
on one page, fix it and
-
resubmit. So I would say don't
worry about that either.
-
If you'd like to do it well
nobody is short. of things to do
-
at this time. of year.
-
Okay, so
-
I'll just take some time to go
through the suggestions and we
-
can talk about things from the
class in general. related to
-
those suggestions.
-
So the first one assuming your
team designed a software and is
-
planning to launch it but they
decide to not give you credit
-
for the work you've done. What
can you do in the situation so
-
the inspiration I take from that
-
is
-
So, this was imagine a scenario
so maybe
-
I'll lay out a situation a case
study, perhaps and then give you
-
some options to how we might
approach it with the
-
implications are
-
Does that seem fair?
-
Comprehensive question
concerning ethics it should not
-
be to should not revolve around
definitions and keywords but
-
rather the main idea. Question
should concern the big ideas we
-
learned in class and details of
how to understand and take
-
action against them.
-
So that doesn't necessarily look
like a multiple choice question,
-
but it's maybe like the first
one. What would you do in this
-
situation? What is
-
for this? It came in with the
code of ethics and what is.
-
And the other formulations that
are appealing.
-
I suggest mainly all important
topics that help in our future.
-
So, how many people
-
forecast around vertical for the
reason any urgent forecast
-
there was a joke a few years ago
-
that came up in
-
Fortran was assessed in the
programming languages section of
-
the Warrens oral exam last year
C stands for Formula
-
translation. That was one of the
first ones first line high level
-
language was developed and the
job was even years and gray
-
soccer to get back to a soccer
she was involved with COBOL
-
COBOL common business oriented
language so, these are very
-
early languages and groups joke.
Here's the honest COBOL and non
-
use of Fortran but you're still
with us. So.
-
That's me trying to be a bit
more positive
-
comments of recent days so.
-
I suppose I can have some true
and false questions
-
don't have to use all five
responses for the Scantron sheet
-
who would be in favor of true
and false questions
-
okay. Thank you for raising your
hands
-
all right
-
ethics, AI and encryption
-
so one thing that came to me the
other day was what if we
-
google accepted search strings
and if it didn't find any
-
results it would pass on to the
general AI and create what you
-
requested so the lines vary
between the things that exist
-
that we can search and we can
know about and of the things
-
that are fabricated
-
think I did this already.
-
Maybe there's a question there.
-
Oh,
-
just start over.
-
So it's ethics are important for
computing but ethics are
-
important also because computing
casts such a large shadow and
-
impacts every aspect of our
lives.
-
So when we're talking about
financial services or
-
applications talking about
convenience, but what if the
-
people who need to have access
to these accessory services
-
don't have access to the
computing power they need. So
-
that's in general the digital
divide
-
I'm not sure the title is called
Robots ramblings.
-
Yeah, by the way, but Sir talk
to Yes I think so.
-
up so in general Blair
remembered is some of the film
-
was the company went on to sell
the latest and greatest products
-
and so the she's an actress saw
the supply of cards that allow
-
owner loves to repair themselves
-
so in the non animated world we
have something similar
-
expressions of a directory pair
-
Okay. fallacies.
-
So I think I can work with that
fallacies and the ethical issue
-
that are related or we could
apply fallacies or
-
maybe an example of ethical
analysis required to root out
-
fallacies. So maybe. Second look
at some examples of fallacies
-
and arguments that were made and
then you can identify the
-
fallacy.
-
So dark patterns lists the
levels of Bloom's Taxonomy.
-
Find dark patterns
-
so, there is a common
-
one of the responses is
cognitive if we need to why we
-
need to make those patterns more
inclusive and not use
-
not to be too sensitive a
phrase?
-
What are the issues there? So,
that's in the ACM droid words
-
matter.
-
So, another example of this I
remember I was meeting for FIRST
-
Robotics FIRST LEGO League and
talking about the challenge for
-
the year and one of them they
talked is on collecting garbage
-
waste represent the waste they
take black
-
I know what shame was I thought
then maybe that was a poor
-
choice. So, I'm not saying
-
saying things are wrong, but I
think there's room to broaden
-
our horizons and realize that
words aren't the same way
-
everyone competing more
inclusive and more
-
representative of the
demographics of the population
-
around us than we have to be.
-
That helps our cause if we are
mindful of messages that are
-
communicated to other groups.
Does that make sense? Just for
-
practical point of view,
diversity in computing helps
-
improve computing. So the thing
is facial recognition example
-
if we have people of all
different skin colors involved
-
in the process and then the
technology gets better and the
-
uses are maybe more thoughtfully
considered as well.
-
Okay, the next question here is
what can we do to mitigate bias
-
in AI?
-
Oh, that's about all of them.
-
So that leaves to the feedback
that another questions at a time
-
we're about right so.
-
So keep roughly the same ratio.
-
100 to 120 questions. That's
what I'm looking at.
-
Okay, one last response. I want
to mention was paraphrase and
-
you can look at the response
yourself.
-
Why do we need to worry about
creating negative cases why on
-
just that
-
invisible hand where our API
czar create the interface works
-
best and
-
so why do you need interfaces?
It's important to engage humans
-
in the process
-
not just because computers are
more trustworthy by nature. So
-
it's better to be human and work
with human interface design
-
should be working on routine.
Anyway, so last few minutes
-
here. Do you have any questions
or concerns
-
Okay, well thank you very much
Responses
What important concept or perspective did you encounter today?
- Today I learnt about the concept 'Information wants to be free.'
- not really
- about the contents of the final exam
- The important concept today is what important topics will be on the exam
- Today we learned about what the final exam would be on and what to review for it to prepare.
- That as a society we should harmonize machine and human made interfaces.
- Today we discuss about final exam
- about finals
- how overnment-granted monopolies conflict with public domain of information is one important perspective i have encountered.
- Final Examination Review
- All the directive details and guidelines I needed for the final examinations
- ethic
- I learned more about human relationship with technology
- about final exam
- Today we mostly talked about the final exam pattern, responses, etc.
- After looking through the link provided with what I could do with my CS degree, I discovered that computer forensics is something I could potentiall get into. It sounds intesting and I didn't know it could be a career option for me.
- Final exam
- An important concept I encountered in class was the example of the movie Robots with the narrative of constantly needing to upgrade yourself or society will deem you obsolete. I see thing happening with cellphones where they stop working after some time, prompting users to buy the newest cellphone.
- An important concept is that information is expensive because it if valuable but it also wants to be free, as in freely accessible to people
- Keeping the human involved in computing allows us to stay grounded and maintain a safer relationship with technology
- talk about the final exam question
- nothing
- A large portion of the class was focused on the final exam but the topics on dark patterns were interesting
- Information wants to be free
- final exam discussions
- Final exam syllabus
- The different paths that a computer science major can take. I liked the video game design and cybersecurity aspects.
- An important perspective I encountered today was “free information” and the tradeoffs that come with free information and how many people are not willing to put their info in front of a paywall because they have no other way to monetize their work
- not really
- One thing that I found important was the idea that information wants to be free or expensive. It is interesting to think of it this way since I always considered it to either be information we wanted to share or data that we wanted to hide.
- Final exam
- finals
- Final exam
- Final exam review
- important concept was What Can You Do with a Computer Science Degree? 10 In-Demand Fields
- The final review of the course and the importance of ethics in the computer science field.
- Discussion about Information wants to be free, humane interfaces, exam topics review
- It's better to be on team human. Thank you for teaching the course.
- Review on Final Examination areas of concentration
- Today we learned about the topic of whether information should be free or expensive and discussed the type of questions to be asked in final exam.
- Review on the final exam
- about final
- none
- Mainly, the finals and the format
- no
- I think it was about the final exam information.
- More detailed discussion about final exam and course content.
- nothing as there was final exam and infographic discussion.
- social dilemma
- In today's class, we discussed our infographics, and how we can post them to share with the class. We aslo talked about our final exam which is on Tuesday. It will take place in the gym. We discussed the responses for the final exam, and what kinds of questions will be there, along with some of the topics that will be present as well.
- no
- Today in class we discussed the phrase “Information wants to be free, but information also wants to be expensive”. We talked about how information will have that implication as in the digital world, information is widely accessible, but can also be easily locked behind things such as paid services, encryption, etc. We talked about how this relationship will always seem to coexist in our current society.
- Today talked about finals and the pattern of the finals.
- An important concept I have encountered today was acknowledging how much material there is to study for the final exam.
- Review for Final
- taking about the Final exam.
- Learned about final exam
- The topics were discussed the one’s which will be coming in the finals
- discussion on final exam
- Today's important concept consisted of the final exam contents and details. It is the last day of classes. We recapped some material and went over the student suggestions for the final exam and went into detail about what some of the questions might look like or where they might come from. We finished up the topics and all we have left to do is post today's lesson and we are done!
- No
- Discussions on the final exam and what areas to concentrate on
- Information
- no
- I don't know really. It was the last day of class... what can I say?
- we just went through the final exam
- today we talked about information wants to be free (wikipedia), where it the phrase encapsulated the idea that information, like a force of nature, desires both freedom and value. It also has been advocated for open access and criticized by those who argue for IP rights. Another thing we talked about today in class was what to prepare for the exam and what the format is kind of like. Another thing we talked about was the infographics.
- Expensive vs free information
- We revised the concepts that have come so far, as well as continuing the topic on equality
- final related
- I got to know about how the questions gonna be in the final term.
- About the final exam and what should be the question.
- discussed about finals
- Review for finals
- Yes I encounter how important this class is I am grateful to have this.
- It was a farewell class and we discussed about Final exam
- What Can You Do with a Computer Science Degree? 10 In-Demand Fields
- Nothing
- It was the last lecture so mostly the focus was on the finals, hence I learned about the finals which was important.
- What Can You Do with a Computer Science Degree? 10 In-Demand Fields
- Ethical background in comuter science
- Discussion on important topics on the final
- No
- it all about exam summary
- Final exam decision
- human interface
- Advanced technology
- Discussion On final exam and its pattern.
- Final exam review, and what topics will likely appear on the exam.
- Today we got the idea about questions that will come in final exam.
- An important concept I encountered today was the duality of information. Although information wants to be free, information wants to be expensive as well. Knowledge comes at a price, and often times if we do not have to pay for the product, then we are the product.
- Talked about the final
- Importance of ethics to computing and the world.
- We discussed some responses and made some discussions about information wants to be free
- No
