Three Robots: Exit Strategies Review

             The short that was my personal favorite and I believe the most impactful was the “Three Robots: Exit Strategies”. I thought that it did a good job displaying the possible harmful future possibilities that could lie ahead for humanity if we don’t take environmental issues seriously. Through the display of animals hunted to extinction, the microplastics ruining the fish ecosystem, the discussion of poor versus wealthy human economic groups, and the human race’s need for self-gratification over personal preservation, one can take away that the lack of compassion and thought given to the planet’s needs directly relates to the poor survival rate of the human race as a whole. Furthermore, later in the short, I found it very interesting how they displayed the wealthy humans’ “island civilization” and the advanced technology (holograms, etc.) they had access to. This depicted the elite's unsympathetic attitude towards the lower class and...

AI and Pinocchio Connections and Comparison

  Following the viewing and analysis of both the film,   AI,  and the original story,   Pinocchio,  one can connect the two plots by reevaluating their connection to the overall discussion of advancing technology and its display through the creation of a fictional “enchanted” or “robotic” boy. Through both narratives, the viewer follows as a “created” boy undergoes an extensive journey defining the aspects of their identity that bring them closer to the reality of being human. With the rapid evolution of advancing technology within our world, now, more than ever, one must begin to evaluate the dangers and impact any form of artificial intelligence could present to our species.

The Adventures of Pinocchio , written in 1881by Carlo Collodi, tells the story of a poor carpenter longing to create a marionett...

Introductions

Welcome to my blog!  My name is Olivia Geishauser and I'm a sophomore at the University of Tampa. I'm originally from Reading, Pennsylvania, and am looking forward to moving into a new chapter of my life this semester with the addition of the Honors Idea lab. Currently, I am an Advertising and Public Relations major and enjoy reading and playing tennis in my free time. I am the third of six children and am notoriously known as the only redhead within my large household. Although I made many adopted jokes when I was little, my mother assured me somewhere within my family line existed the "ginger" gene. I remain a little skeptical but have reasoned to attribute my vibrant hair color to the Irish side of my Greek, Irish and German background. In addition to this obvious chracteristic, I believe my love of art, movies, and reading allow me to look at the world through a somewhat optimistic and creative eye. Now that you know a little about me, I will move on into discussi...
