AOI artifical intelegence

business and employment:

• artificial intelligence effects employment because said intelligence replaces peoples' jobs. there are Expert systems that can diagnose human illnesses make financial forecasts and schedule routs for delivery pickups, and can manage Assembly lines and find faults in the system.
• Also business use artificial intelligence such as smart sensors, that record data to improve Their business.
• the development of of new algorithms in order to better surgery.

education:

• now robotics are being taught languages that we understand rather than computer language. this may help education in the future because now robots will be able to teach people.
• AI can be applied to machine learning methods to problems in vision.

Arts, entertainment and leisure:

• artificial intelligence has changed the face of entertainment. An example is driving and flight simulators. the flight simulator helps the navy and improves as they go along, it helps you use group tactics, attack groups etc.
• programming the computer to play the game against you is an example of artificial indulgence. for example playing chess with the computer.

notes with the brother :)

EMR/EHR: (electronic medical record) (electronic health record)
no one uses the paper base system, its very inefficient.
50% of the doctor notes turned out wrong because of the doctors notorious hand writing.
hand written paper notes have a lot of flaws.
-the doctors office has been high-tech computer based and WAY more efficient.
--paper based clinics are very unorganized and hard to maneuver.

Muna's presentation
visible human:
uses a computer simulation, a body was cut up and taken pics of, and make a 3d visual aid and people everywhere use.
from this scientist can find discoveries about the body,, and help cure disease.

Fractal Geometry and simulation:
can use comp calculators.

the chaos game: a simple comp game that allows you the graph what the human hand can not.

abstraction a set of concepts and ideas designed to mimic a system.

don't believe EVERYTHING that comes out of a computer, be/c there could be flaws.
you can still take a lot of knowledge out of the simulation.

spreadsheets:
pie charts show relative perorations of the parts to the whole
line charts: show trends over Time.

eradicating spreadsheet errors:

1. plan workst b4 entering info
2. make assumptions accurately
3. double chk
4. make formula readable
5. use program functions
6. put data first
7. do not distract reader
8. make it easy to compare
9. relate to resto f doc
10. learn from experts

not really used in accounting. spreadsheets are difficult and time consuming.

advanced professionals use mathematics-processing software.

statistics: the science of collecting and analyzing data. they answer random questions for the betterment of something. they are not used on spreadsheets, they use mathematical programs.

computer modeling and simulation:

it helps the researcher see it done in certain ways. most computer games use simulation

AOI:business and employment and education. used in vid games and used in physical biological and engineering, business marketing, banking and others.

its sometimes safer to use comp. simulation i.e studying nuclear reactions, its cheaper , it can save things like deer b.c we can view the change in nature to later better it.

some bad things would be:

wrong predictions, information can be lost b/c the program is so big, you get dependent on it.

word processors:

an application ppl use to manipulate tools and #.

charter formatting let the user yo format characters text size color and font.

corrects common typing errors etc.

WYSIWYG is what your type on the page is what will be printed.

out liner are idea processors they have 3 functions
Arranging info
regarding ideas
hiding and revealing levels of details as needed

a benefit as opposed to writing is the references like online dictionaries, quotation books, and other references,.

-spell check
there are formats like letter formats.
some software are programmed to recognize handwriting and some software has speech recognition.

review/popquiz on databases

. Define RDBMS.:

i have no earthly idea. but if i had to guess id say: random database memory storage.
2. Identify 3 tables that could be part of a doctor’s office patient relational database.

# of patients, last check up, insurance #...
3. Searching the database to find specific information is called a:
Query.
4. Why are we concerned about electronic databases?

its easy to steal from them because people from all around the world has access to them, as opposed to the paper files where there is only one copy.
5. Explain 3 different types of S/E issues related to online databases.

-Security: since its online different people can access it and it could be a threat to your identity.

-privacy: big companies and the government now have access to random bits of information of you because of databases, information that is very particular, a bit creepy and sometimes very personal.

-reliability: Electronic online databases can be more reliable then the regular paper back ones, first they are are accurate and probably more legible, also if the one copy of the paper file were to get damaged, all information is lost. and the internet can never break, its just over all more reliable.
6. What is something we need to protect electronic databases from? What can be used to protect them?

identity theft; we can protect it with firewalls etc.
