What is example of electronic disturbance?
-virus, trojan horse, worm, bomb, back door.

What is a software virus?
-A cracker program that searchse out other programs and infects them gy embedding a copy of itself in them, so that they become Trojan Horse.

What is a software Trojan Horse?
-To break security of damage a system.

What are counterproposals for 'Resistances'?
-Many guys made open source software for many resistances. Open source are free for all. And they made GNU project for many open source users.

Finish..

Last class.. very good

Today's Focus
  • what’s in a game engine?
  • game “mods”
  • two issues to consider from film theory

What's in a game engine?

- There are many things in a game engine. For example graphics, physics, A.I in a game engine.

- graphics(visual), physics(other player, effects), A.I.(how to game, coding, the enemy)

What is the "mods"?

- Modification(Mod) is used in fps games, rpg games, and so on. Mod can be entirely new games in themselves and partial conversions (total conversions) .

Two issues to consider from film theory .

  1. Identification - A player have identification for relate to the characters and action on the screen .
  2. Space - Player can play same game at different place. Plays see or do in game space.

Finish...

These days so many people play the game. There are various games. I don't like game, but my major connected with game. So this class give me instructive lesson.

What is the key point of the class?
"People often interact with media technologies as though the technologies were people."

related points : ethics

  • Technologies can’t be a human, but It have ability for approch human. Someday if technologies have personality, I think it is human.

related points : aesthetics & teleology

cf., the philosopher Immanuel Kant’s theories of aesthetics detailed in his book critique of judgment

related points : design

  • If we view objects, technologies and natural phenomenon as if they do, in fact, have goals and intentions, then we will design like an artificial intelligence researcher.
  • On the other hand, if we view objects, technologies and natural phenomenon as if the just look like they have goals and intentions, then we will design like a tool builder for human “users” or “operators” of our tools.


where does HCI meet AI?


what problem does Weizenbaum’s
ELIZA system address or solve?

  • the artificial intelligence answer: it does (or does not) behave like a human and is therefore successful (or not successful)
  • the ethnomethodology answer: it is taken to be a like a person in a conversation and thus simply works like most other technologies in a social situation

Finish..

frankly say.. I don't understand this class ㅠㅠ So, I try understand this topic with PPT.

Today's Focus
  • Who is Turing?
  • Turing’s “imitation game”
  • Artificial intelligence
  • What is GPS?

Who is Turing?

He is founder of computer science, artificial intelligence, mathematician, philosopher, codebreaker, and a gay man. He published"On Computable Numbers with an application to the Entscheidungsproblem", which postulated the Turing Machine. Return to Cambridge, Introduced to German 'Enigma cipher machine'. And he breaking of U-boat Enigma, saving battle of the Atlantic.

What is Turing’s “imitation game”?

It is played with three people, a man, a woman, and an interrogator who may be of either sex. The interrogator stays in a room apart from the other two. The object of the game for the interrogator is to determine which of the other two is the man and which is the woman. This game's mission is to find real woman(or man). Then from his thinking, we thought 'When computer runs, The computer can thinking?'

Artificial intelligence

  • Who start?
    Marvin Minsky said (1963) “... artificial intelligence [AI] is the science of making machines do things that would require intelligence [as] if done by [humans]”
  • Aritificial intelligence research area is Knowledge Representation, Programming Languages Natural Language (e.g., Story) Understanding, Speech Understanding, Vision, Robotics
    Machine Learning, Planning ....

What is GPS?

GPS is what is known in AI as a “planner.” It is a computer program for theorems proof, geometirc problems and chess playing. But GPS has the "frame problem". Frame problem is
the problem of deciding what parts of the internal model to update when a change is made to the model or the external world.

After class...

I saw AI in movie and novel. At first start so early that my opinion. Until now so many reseaches about AI published. Imaginary AI come true soon. But if computer same as human being, it is very fearful.
