It's interesting to think about how certain things become obsolete after new inventions are made. Some examples of this are horses, milkmen, and many factory workers. Although many believe that AI won't "take over", its rapid growth makes it hard to estimate its impact. #UWJ201 #314

I came across an interesting statistic in discussion: "an average ChatGPT search uses 1 gallon of water". This is misleading, it's actually closer to half a liter per 5-50 queries. While this isn't drinking water, it is still 10x more than a google search. #J201 #314

After reading the article on the four things that build trust with TV audiences, I had this thought: If these four methods, especially explaining why a story was done, are so effective at gaining trust, why do we rarely see them put to use? #UWJ201 #314

Reading #4 talks about how not only fact checkers, but other social media users correct eachother. I've noticed this recent trend of "rage bait" going around and it's made me wonder if these two things are related. Is there something driving us to correct eachother? Maybe rage? #UWJ201 #314

I am blown away by how many people aren't aware that Obama Care and the affordable care act are the same thing. Then, I was surprised further when one of the people said that he "doesn't really follow politics and just listens to whatever his girlfriend says". #UWJ201 #314

There was an article included in the research study that spoke about democrats and Republicans opinions of each other. It turns out that the parties aren't as polarizing as you may think. I even caught myself overestimating opposing ideas later in the study when scaling parties' opinions. #UWJ201

It's interesting how our uncles on Facebook are the most honest and open about their opinions, yet they are judged the most often. What if our uncles weren't the only ones afraid to share their thoughts? #UWJ201

It is interesting how framing can be interpreted as one sided. We argued in discussion on whether or not there was a truly neutral way to frame something. This led us to think about if issues themselves can even be neutral. Do you think issues or framing of them can be truly neutral? #UWJ201 #314

While reading "Why Journalists are like Cops and Firefighters", I was reminded of the movie, "Nightcrawler". In the movie, an ambitious journalist ventures out at night in search of raw and intense news like gruesome car accidents and murders. How "up close" should journalists really get? #J201 #314
