Ethics on Social Media


        In this globalization era, technology grew rapidly especially in terms of social networking. According to Hootsuite, at least 45% recorded from the human total population has used social media last January 2019s. It showed how influencing social media now.

Social media itself, help us to communicate with many people from the various circle. Whether it for a personal or public interest. The trend for using chat apps has grown since last 2000s along with the emergence of diverse social media and becomes society choice like Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, Path, etc. Not only can give good impacts such make us easier to exchange information with others but also can give bad impacts if it used arbitrarily like spreading hoax which can harm to others. Therefore, it would be nice if we, as social media users, use our social media as well as possible.

As we know, social media gives us the freedom to be able to communicate with anyone. But it not means we can abuse that freedom. Freedom not means without ethics. There’re some ethics that we can know and apply together to be a good user and minimize the bad impact that may occur to us.
      
        First, choose and use the good and decent word. When we interact with others, the word we used very determine whether our purpose conveyed properly to others or not. Second, respect others. Our good and decent word seen from how us respecting our interlocutors. This may be a simple thing, but it will very help us to make sure our interaction running smoothly. Respect in this point can also apply when we use their opus. 
        Third, make sure you share the truth on your social media. Don’t share anything if you don’t know is it true or not. Fourth, limit to share your privacy. Although that is our right to post anything on our social media, please be wise for not share too much about it because there might someone out there felt uncomfortable with it. And last, just be yourself and don’t get addicted. Generally, people who get addicted to using their social media would create their new character besides their main character. They will force themselves to follow the trend which could make them stress.
Therefore, let’s be wise social media users. Maximize the benefits and minimize the detriment.

Artifical Neural Network

Artificial Neural Network  is a computational model based on the structure and functions of biological neural networks. Information that flows through the network affects the  a neural network changes or learns, based on that input and output. So the point is  to create a computational system that could solve problems like a human brain. The Neural Networks was founded by  Warren McCulloch and Walter Pitts in 1943. Then it was upgraded with AI (Artificial Intelligence) in 1975 by Kunijiko Fukushima called Artificial Neural Network (ANN) .   Warren McCulloch and Walter Pitts Today  Neural Networks are important in information age, because help society to solve complex problems in real life condition. They can learn from model the relationships between inputs and outputs that are nonlinear and complex; make generalizations and inferences; reveal hidden relationships, patterns and predictions (such as financial time series data) and varianc...

Categories and Types of Artificial Intelligence

AI has 2 categories namely weak or strong. Weak AI also known as narrow AI. Weak AI is an AI system designed and trained for certain tasks. Weak AI can be a virtual personal assistant, like Apple Siri, Amazon’s Alexa, and Google Home. While strong AI, also known as general artificial intelligence, is an AI system with general human cognitive abilities. When a special task is presented, a strong AI system can find its own solution without human intervention. S trong AI acts more like a brain. It does not classify, but uses clustering and association to process data. In short, it means there isn’t a set answer to your keywords.  Beside that, an assistant professor of integrative biology and computer science engineering at Michigan State University, Arend Hintze, categorizes AI into 4 types, ranging from existing AI systems to AI systems that are still in design. The categories are as follows: Reactive machine. An example is Deep Blue, the IBM chess program that defeated Garr...

The history of Microsoft windows operating system

     Microsoft Windows was announced by Bill Gates on November 10, 1983. Microsoft introduced Windows as a graphical user interface for MS-DOS, which had been introduced a couple of years earlier. In the 1990s, the product line evolved from an operating environment into a fully complete, modern operating system. Microsoft Windows is a group of several graphical operating system families, all of which are developed, marketed and sold by Microsoft. Each family caters to a certain sector of the computing industry. Active Microsoft Windows families include Windows NT and Windows IoT; these may encompass subfamilies, e.g. Windows Server or Windows Embedded Compact (Windows CE). Defunct Microsoft Windows families include Windows 9x, Windows Mobile and Windows Phone. Microsoft Windows Operating Systems for PCs The following details the history of  MS-DOS and Windows operating systems designed for personal computers (PCs). MS-DOS - Microsoft Disk Operating Syste...
