In your “Can Machines Think?” post, I’m assuming yours was the summary assignment as well, but I really like how you were able to shorten it up into a very small summary. It kept me more interested and not lost in all the different machine “lingo”!

I’m not particularly an artsy person either, so I was also very hesitant for the Frida Kahlo assignment. Your descriptions were very nice but it was hard to picture it without the picture posted! But I’m glad you enjoyed the painting rather than just doing it for the assignment! That’s what art should be about!

I found your “So… Can They?” post very interesting! I disagreed with the fact that machines could think, but you put it in an entirely different way which was very cool. You believe that machines can think by tricking us into thinking we’re having an actual full on conversation with them, however, it’s an “empty victory.” I thought that was clever how you put it that way. I never really considered it like that!

I really enjoyed your Frida Kahlo assignment. It’s cool to see that you could actually relate with the painting. It honestly really makes you enjoy the art that much more when you actually can see similarities with the artist and yourself.

Unfortunately, Erin Lyng did not have any assignments posted for me to read.
