In the book “The Hitchhiker’s guide to galaxy”, a super computer Deep Thought is put to work to learn the answer to the Ultimate question of Life, The universe and everything, it takes millions of years to analyze this and suddenly blurts out the answer 42 which does not make any sense. Deep Thought points out that the answer seems meaningless because the beings who instructed it never actually knew what the question was. This is very much similar to the world right now: We do have all the answers readily available in the form of Peta bytes of data but we do not know the right questions to connect the dots to provide better solutions to problems as simple as choosing a juice brand to crucial cancer research. This has inspired me to pursue a graduate degree in Data Analytics Engineering at Volegnau School of Engineering-George Mason University to explore the enigmatic world of data …show more content…

  • Death By Black Hole By Neil Degrasse Tyson

    1062 Words  | 5 Pages

    In the novel, Death By Black Hole, Neil DeGrasse Tyson proves that the common assumption that the color of our solar system’s sun is yellow, is, in fact, an incorrect belief. Many people think that the sun is yellow because, “Near sunset … the blue light from the sun’s spectrum, lost to the twilight sky, leaves behind a yellow-orange-red hue…”(Tyson 293).This shows why this common misconception is not an easy thing to spot and is understandable why most people incorrectly assume the color of the sun. The actual color of the sun is proven by the fact that, “ if the sun were yellow… then white stuff would reflect this light and appear yellow…”(Tyson 293). If the sun was actually yellow then the colors we see around us would have been changed

  • The Cosmic Race

    1412 Words  | 6 Pages

    The Cosmic Race, by José Vasconcelos, is about the new race that will arise in Latin America from the mixing of all races and the society they’ll create. It is an extremely influential essay in Mexico and still widely regarded today. In the The Cosmic Race it is said that America is the ancient home of the now lost Atlantean civilization (Vasconcelos 7). The downfall of the Atlanteans spawned four races: the Indian, the Black, the Mongol, and the White (Vasconcelos 9). Latin America, the essay argues, will be the homeland of the new Neo-Atlantean race as it already the racial melting pot of so many races (Vasconcelos 17-18).

  • Statement Of Purpose For Artificial Intelligence

    896 Words  | 4 Pages

    The attraction of artificial intelligence for me lies in its breadth of applicability, both as a method of problem solving in itself and in a symbiotic integration with other areas of computer science. A broad spectrum of applications exist within the artificial intelligence field, ranging from intelligent non-player controlled characters in computer game software to a ubiquitous computing solution that intelligently reacts to a variety of users. This diversity is one of the main reasons that I feel compelled to pursue artificial intelligence further. While I have striven to develop my understanding of artificial intelligence during my undergraduate education, the choreographed requirements of a bachelor's degree have restricted my research to only a minute sample of artificial intelligence’s applications. During my exposure to the field, I have often been unsatisfied with the level of interaction artificial intelligence displays in response to prompts of varying complexity.
