After seeing everyone’s wonderful presentations on their individual projects, I felt very inspired. Though so much of this class centers around the dangers of the rapidly increasing advancement of technology and the disastrous effects it could have within society, these presentations were a good reminder as to why technology is so incredible. So many people created such unique projects, with special functions that accomplish many different tasks. It was amazing to see what everyone could come up with. It made me feel safer about the future of the digital age, as it seems that with the right people, technology can expand to help all of humanity. Thus, I have two overarching questions to ask: how do we make sure the future of technology is placed in the hands of competent and well-meaning people? And then, how do we make sure everyone has an equal opportunity to contribute to these movements?
Thanks for an awesome semester!
