When will it stop and when will it change
no one can tell and or predict the future
it is all bright and pink giving a good
feeling that everything will be okay but suddenly “click”
and there it is a side that nobody ever knew of
it is exactly the same but also amply different.
and there it is, this might seem dumb
but it shows something that nobody would think of
its a personality with its cover blown
it exposes the side of it that nobody ever knew of.
Is it ok to tell lies sometimes or should you always be honest?
I think people should not always tell the truth because sometimes you can hurt someones feelings. I haven’t told anybody this but I used to be a lier when I was little. I used to lie about every thing until I hurt somebody close to me. After that I stopped lying but even when I told the truth I hurt peoples feelings so I learned to say what you think you should after you read the situation.
You just got a full scholarship to two colleges: one is in New York City, the other is in California. Which one would you choose? Explain.
If ever had a situation where i had to pick a college in new york or in california I would choose to go to california because I have been in new york all my life so going to california will be a new experience and a adventure. I had originally planned to travel the world when I grow up so going to california would be my first step. I hate same I want different and if I go to california I would learn more about new things in this world. I want to make new friends that are unique from the ones I already have because sometimes I feel like I’m an alien. For example sometimes everybody is doing something and I don’t see the point in it so I don’t do it but I get hated by people I considered a friend.
1) Describe a time when a police man/woman has helped/protected you or someone you know?
When my dad had an accident in his car he was helped by a police man. She called the ambulance.
2) Describe a time when a police man/woman has acted in a way you disagreed with. How could they have handled it better?
One time on tv I saw a cop trying to stop a fight but he got punched so he hit the guy too. I think they could have instead stop him because it seemed like he was out of control.
3) Should citizens be able to take photos and videos of the police? Why or why not?
Citizens should be able to take pictures because they have a right and they are not causing any harm. In some cases they shouldn’t be taking pictures because the might be invading someones privacy.
4) Is there anything a citizen should not be allowed to take a photo or video of (for example, inside the subway, couples making out, outside the White House)?
A citizen should not be able to take picture of someone if the person does not agree to it. For example if a couple is making out and they do not want pictures to be taken they shouldn’t take the picture.

Extra Credit: What did the video mean by “Corruption drives on Secrecy”?
Corruption drives on secrecy means when something becomes wrong it is done secretly. For example in the video the cops were committing crimes secretly. So Benjamin Franklin is trying to say the cops commit crimes and they do it secretly.

9. Make a poem inspired by this song.
Dull yet so unpredictable like a fight you never know what going to happen if your in offense the defense controls you and if you in defense the offense controls you. So I’ll wait for the perfect timing when my opponent attacks.Then right there hit their biceps make their hands weak and punch them. But you never know if you’r not cautious enough.
10. What something you fake all the time?
Something I fake all the time is being tired so that i can get more sleep.
1. Give an example of when YOU (yes, you) plagiarized and explain what you could have done differently.
A time I plagiarized is when I had to do a assignment for Ms.Carlin she told me to write about Martin Luther King I just copied something from wiki and wrote it on my notebook. What I could have done differently is write it down using my own words.
a) Did either of the machines come close to passing the Turing Test (did they seem human?)
Both the machines seemed extremely human. Clever bot acted much more humane than splotchy because splotchy seemed to be trying too hard to have a normal response while in contrast clever bot said something much with a normal flow. For example when normally people say hello people don’t always reply hello but something else like whats up. That is why I think clever bot passed the test.
b) What were some of the questions you asked Splotchy and Cleverbot? What kind of questions were Splotchy and Cleverbot better at answering?
Some of the questions were insults and then I changed the way I spoke to a apologetic tone to see if the robot will be forgiving or would it still be angry and to my surprise it was still to angry. I tried this out because a normal person would either not forgive me or forgive me after I apologize a few times.
c) How do you think these computers program work? Why do you think it’s so hard to design a machine that passes the Turing Test?
I think these computers work by having a bunch of responses to something a person might say and with no doubt I think it was probably extremely hard to program.
This was a really cool experience and I’ll admit at one point knowing it was a computer I thought I was talking to another person who was from chicago.
