Introduce Ourselves


 Hey guys! My name is Joe Creen and I am from Old Greenwich, CT. I am majoring in Business Administration and minor in sales. In my studies at High Point University, I am mainly focusing on the sales aspect since that is the career path I want to take in life. Outside of class, I like to focus on outdoors activities, working out and spending time with my friends and family. Summer is here so when I am not working or doing school work I'm best to find near any body of water. After HPU, I would love to find a job that would be a lasting fit for future growth. Pretty much looking to find a company that I could possibly retire with haha. My favorite food would have to be sushi. If it's top grade seafood, I will go with sashimi any day. I hope this gives all you more insight into who I am. Excited to get this class started!

In the Age of AI

 For class, we had to watch a video on Artificial intelligence. Of course I have heard about artificial intelligence, but I have not really done much research on it myself. I never really understood the idea of how artificial intelligence would work. But the video started out explaining how artificial intelligence really works through the coding of deep learning. Deep learning is where the computer is given a specific goal and is given many experiences and trials of how it can complete that goal, in the end making it to that goal in ways a human could not even think of. Overall, there are some positives when it comes to artificial intelligence. Artificial intelligence in the realms of medicine is going to be a huge help in the future. Not only will it make it easier for the doctor to process information and data, it can start by helping in early detection when it comes to cancers. In terms of national security with the use of artificial intelligence, I believe there are pros and co...

Our Relationship with Technology

     This week, my weekly screen time on my cell phone is down 43%. With a daily average of 2 hours and 51 minutes. To be honest I am disappointed that my daily average is that high. And that’s 43% down? Incredible… I am always trying to make sure my phone screen time gets lower and lower every week. It is tough to do that though since my job incorporates me being on my phone making calls. But I want the best of both worlds. I want to be free of technology while still being able to get anything I want at the touch of my fingers. I know, that doesn’t really make sense now does it? I do appreciate everything technology has given me. Access to any information I want. Updates on current events in an instant. Knowing where a gas station is whenever I need gas, I am truly thankful. But I am always wary on technology having a negative effect on my life. I want to appreciate the life I have in front of me instead of wasting my days away on my cell phone or laptop.   ...

BLOG POST #2

Reading the article about the Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) definitely gave me more incite into a topic I need to learn more about. To begin with, this article was full of facts I never knew about. First off, I always thought that you could only serve as a justice for a specific amount of time, kind of like how our President can only serve for a max of 8 years (that is if they get re-elected for a second term). Learning that a justices can serve for however long they want, unless they get impeached, really puts emphasis on why Presidents care so much about who holds a seat. The most important take away point I learned about the Supreme Court is that this judicial system has the power to make changes to very important laws in our country, whether for better or worse. Some great cases the Supreme Court has had to make improvements to our country are: Obergefell v. Hodges (2015) which legalized same sex marriage across all 50 states, and Mapp v Ohio (1961) which held that ...
