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.

4월 첫주 SUMMARY

Today's Key points

• New media technologies usually reinforce existing social networks or even work to isolate people.
  
• When new media technologies facilitate new social networks, they simultaneously challenge existing social, political and economic relationships.
  

1. social networks as science

• social network analysis is an interdisciplinary social science, but has been of especial concern to sociologists
• At first social networks is the field of social science. But recently, physicists and mathematicians have made large contributions to understanding networks in general (as graphs) and thus contributed to an understanding of social networks too.
• If people A and B connect to the same people, they have equivalent positions in networks.
• If people A connect separate networks, A have bridging capital.
• If people B are central to a network you have bonding capital.
  

2. social networks as technology

• email, newsgroups, and weblogs.
• Like 'Amazon.com'(Book store), When We want buy book, the recommender systems give me the information of another book which people who bought this book.
  

3. social networks as popular culture

• Like a Kevin Bacon's number, Kevin bacon has number 0 and actor A, if appeared in a movie with kevin bacon, has a bacon number of 1 .
  An actor B, if appear in a movie with A, has a bacon number of 2 .
  
  
  

After class

We make social network any time, any where, any people. My social network so complexity also.

I don't try draw My social network grap, but it's look like interesting.
