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!

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.       Even though I am alwa

BLOG POST 4

Some major topics we have discussed so far in this class have been the six clauses, or freedoms, of the first amendment. In addition, we have also gone over the eight values of free expression. A current event I can easily relate to these topics has to be the storming on the capitol that happened January 6th. What was supposed to be a protest spiraled into a riot, and what others may call a planned coup. Of course, the right to protest is protected in our first amendment. "Of assembly, to Petition". These two clauses of the first amendment made it possible for that gathering to happen. But what the first amendment did not condone was the proceeded storming, breaking and entering, and destruction of government property! That is just a perfect example of one of the 3 bedrock principles which state that the first amendment is not a shield against laws of general applicability. Some rioters tried and are still fighting that they should not be convicted because the President told

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 cons.
