I feel like journalists should be honest when they use AI. They should also not heavily rely on AI and double-check its work, because even AI can be wrong. I think there should definitely be limitations, like only using AI to draft pieces, and keeping the final copy human-written.

Some drawbacks could be fake news and AI taking journalists' jobs. It could take a long time for these drawbacks to dissipate. By fixing to work on AI's algorithm and bias could help prevent some of these drawbacks.

I feel like deciding who "deserves" a platform is subjective because many people have different opinions. Do we give people second chances? I feel like holding all users to the same expectations could help with this.

It's interesting how this can be used to shield social media companies from taking accountability. But without it companies could be sued for posts or comments others make on their platforms.

I think we turn to conspiracy theories because they help us find some explanation for the situations that make us uncomfortable. I believe that conspiracies are useful to make us feel a sense of security but I also think they lead to more doubt and distrust in the government.

I would agree, I believe people who choose to indulge in political media have better outcomes in media. They explore a healthy media diet and form their own opinions.

Do you think diversifying your media intake could help?

Don't you feel like we should set our standards at the unrealistic ones to prevent ourselves from getting into the negative relationships the media shows? Is setting our expectations high a bad thing?

Do you think local governments there are abusing their power because there isn't a spotlight on them?

I see your point here. I often enjoy these shows to distract myself from reality or just relax. I've never thought about the way they've subconsciously affected my viewpoints.

I think we are drawn to the lives we can't have. People often use television as an escape from their own reality. This would make sense as to why it has the biggest impact.

I have bought many advertised products off of tiktok. Many influencers that I follow do reviews on these products, and it inspires me to buy them. I feel as though it's a 50/50 chance the product it good or bad.

I thought this was interesting as well. I see a lot of this happening on TikTok with famous influencers. I have also noticed it in TV shows or movies where they are always wearing a certain brand of clothing or drinking a specific beverage.

People often look forward to Super Bowl ads. They are silly and interesting to watch. Why don't these companies create/air ads like these all the time with all the attention the Super Bowl gives their companies?
#UWJ201 #306

If ads appeal to specific emotions, is there a way they know our most common emotions to grab our attention more frequently? Do you think if someone is sad, their ads will be sadder?
