An Assortment of Life

 Artificial intelligence has been growing in popularity over the last few years. What seemed like science fiction decades ago is now very much a reality. Artificial intelligence or AI has taken a step into so many facets into the online world. There is software that can create images, whether or not what they create is actual art or not is another debate in itself. What I wanted to talk about is the AI software Chat GPT and the many uses that it has, because it can be used for more than just writing essays for you, if you use it like that. Chat GPT is an AI software that can write out anything if you give it a certain prompt. This can be either writing stories, essays, paragraphs, or anything of the like. One unique feature that I saw is the use of Chat GPT as a dungeon master for Dungeons & Dragons. Dungeons & Dragons requires at least one dungeon master who runs the game, they create the story that the players experience along with many other managerial uses. The overall ...

According to Arizona's previous governor Doug Ducey in a 2016 article if more Arizona's workforce had a better education then our economy would be better. An increase in education would result in more jobs, better wages, less poverty and much more for our economy. While all of this sounds great, is it true? Would an increase in education actually improve our economic society so vastly? Well this may not be the case. This article came out nearly 7 years ago, and our economy certainly doesn't seem to be in a better place than it was in 2016. Is this all because of people who didn't pursue an education with either colleges or trade skills? Well that couldn't be the cause of it because there are many factors that affect how the economy works, and it doesn't solely fall on those who chose not to purse higher education. According to The Balance there can be many causes of a decreasing economy, such as higher interest rates or the loss of consumer confidence in the m...

 I wanted to tie in the concept of rhetoric and appeals with my interest in media including movies, games, and shows. Today I wanted to look at the new Scream movie that released on March 10th as well as the rhetorical appeals that I believe that I saw while watching this movie. I will try not to go into anything very specific as to avoid any spoilers, mainly I will avoid anything that was not in the trailers leading up to this movie.  To start, I have been a fan of the Scream franchise for quite a while so I was excited when the 5th Scream movie was announced and then released last year. So naturally, I was excited to watch the 6th installment of the series when it arrived in theaters. Ever since I watched it in theaters a couple days ago I have been thinking about it, and I have thought about the rhetorical appeals that this movie would have in it. So, I thought it would be interesting to look at how horror movies, specifically Scream 6 handles and displays rhetorical appeal...

     Slanted reporting, or biased reporting causes a lot of misinformation to be sent all across the internet. When someone inputs their own biases, directly or indirectly, it can easily shift the tone of what they are reporting. Suddenly when biases are found it can make people question the truth behind the subject, it puts credibility into question. Some biased reporting can be relatively easy to find depending on the source or author you are looking at. Image Source      When looking at any online news source it is very easy to find something that is biased or slanted towards a certain perspective. Take a look at this article by Fox News that is clearly biased. This article pokes at the "radical left" and is very clearly created to create controversy and maintain conversation on the internet. Any political article will be written with biases, that comes with the nature of politics. With article like these they are very clearly made to make the reader ma...
