Artificial intelligence has been a hot topic since the invention of artificial intelligence. Many scientist and humans, in general, believe that artificially intelligent robots would want to rule the world and overthrow the human race. Something as simple as Siri or Corona could get too smart, and eventually, want to get rid of humans. Many sci-fi shows are based on this ideology. However, based off of this article by Tim Oates, artificial intelligence is one problem we should not worry about. In his article, Oates was able to relieve everyone’s anxieties they may have had, and he did so persuasively. Oates used many different rhetoric strategies to do so, but overall he used pathos, sarcasm/irony, and ethos He was persuasive in communicating his argument because of use of pathos, sarcasm/irony, and ethos. Tim Oates is very sarcastic throughout his article, which really makes him play with emotions through pathos. His emotional appeal is kind of told through how a robot would think with emotions. By talking in a sense of how a robot would think emotionally a sense of humor is given, because, logically, how would a computer have emotions? He uses this idea, that computers can’t have emotion, to his advantage as a common folk would nearly understand that a computer can’t have emotions, realistically. The way he incorporates this is with sarcasm through. In other words, Oates uses the fact that robots can’t have emotions, and if they did, it would be kind of funny to try to
The use of Pathos to create a sensation of trust in the Brainy Baby product. This trust was evoked by this well-known company that stated their product would make any baby smarter. The quote is " inspires logical thinking". If this product was truthful there would be thousands of little Einsteins running around. This product was tested and proven that it has the reverse effect Brainy Baby made babies a little bit slower at retaining things later. This video is supposed to help in "language" this plays on people's feeling that either their baby cries and just want them to talk or wishes their baby can get further in life. Sadly, too many of wishes and prayers this was proven as true. If parents want their child to get smarter teach them yourself
Paragraph 1- NASA is using all the money they have to keep what they have right now up and running, but if we sell the older spacecrafts and satellites the private companies can keep them running and being worked on while NASA builds bigger and better things. In Brian Berger's article “With NASA Budget Cuts Looming, SETI Eyes Private Funding”, he says, “NASA's astrobiology budget, the source of most of that grant money, is facing a steep decline. Under NASA's 2007 budget proposal, currently before Congress, the U.S. space agency would spend $32.5 billion on astrobiology in the year ahead--half of what it spent on astrobiology in 2005.” (Berger, pg 1). A survey was conducted between February 4, 2013, and February 6, 2013, by random people, the results were 75 percent believe that NASA’s budget should be doubled to 1 percent of the federal budget to fund initiatives including a mission to Mars.
Krakauer’s argument is, “McCandless wasn’t “stupid, tragic, and inconsiderate,” but instead paints a sympathetic picture of a young man with a profound moral compass seeking a higher truth”. His effective case justifying McCandless’s behavior, which may include potential biases, is effective for most personages. This contretemps is feasible, but there are some personages, like Peter Christian, that see the flip side of Krakauer’s assessment. Peter, who “arrived in Alaska in 1992” with McCandless, said “Alaska is populated with people who are either running away from something or seeking themselves in America’s last frontier” he came to Alaska with the same intentions. In his article he states that he was one of those young man.
Using ethos, pathos, logos, and other rhetorical techniques in non-fiction and science fiction, help the author carry different and similar claims regarding artificial intelligence making the author’s message change between the two genres. In Robopocalypse, a science fiction novel written by Daniel H. Wilson, the protagonist Cormac Wallace narrates the story with first and secondhand testimonies, information accumulated from interviews, and camera footage. At the opening of the book, Cormac gathers the stories from a black box of the robot uprising, beginning the story of how ordinary technology turned into an automated war. The sci-fi novel informs the audience that artificial intelligence can effortlessly turn against their human creator to deliberately achieve the annihilation of the human race implicating “technology changes, but people stay the same” (Wilson 261).

He is saying a person who has a total of education is intelligence but should still be more intelligence with a job to and understand both the body and brain. Then he talks about his mom was a waitress and how she had to remember where the order went to.

As Natasha confronts her past, both physically and mentally, she encounters other Black Widows who share similar experiences with her through a place called the “Red Room.” The more physically and mentally tough their individual journeys were, the more powerful and useful they were viewed as, in terms of the ability to be easily controlled.

Sherry says, "During the years I have spent researching people and their relationships with technology, I have often heard the sentiment "No one is listening to me.". In short, Sherry's point is we look to technology world because no one listens to us in the real world. The words "No one is listening to me" essentially display the tone of sadness. According to these words and as a reader, I feel the loneliness hidden in it. It makes me agree with Sherry's point that the loneliness makes people look to the technology world, where the machines seem to listen to them. As an individual is living and experiencing this life, I think all of us at least once in our lives, there is a moment we feel not been listened to. Thus, Sherry's use of pathos catches our sympathy. Another use of pathos is when Sherry says, "One of the most haunting experiences during my research came when I brought one of those robots, designed in the shape of a baby seal, to an elder-care facility, and an older woman began to talk to it about the loss of her child. The robots seemed to be looking into her eyes. It seemed to be following the conversation. The woman was comforted.". Obviously, I believe that not only me but the readers also feel the loss of this. The woman feels lonely because of the loss of her child, even so, the baby robot still can comfort her. By using pathos, Sherry indicates a reasonable reason, which answers why nowadays, people looks to the technology. Sherry once again gains my sympathy and my agreement to her point. And because of that, I see that Sherry is using pathos
