Week 1 Posting - Artificial Intelligence

Artificial intelligence has quickly been integrated into much of the technology we use today, and regardless of if you feel it's a good or a bad thing, it is important to understand how it directly affects us in our everyday lives. Dominic-Madori Davis wrote an amazing article that discusses how many companies have implemented what is being referred to as vibe coding, which is where an AI creates code and a senior developer reviews and edits the code. A senior developer at TechCrunch questioned about vibe coding referred to it as giving a coffee pot to a small child to pour for the family. 

I believe if used properly, AI can push us beyond our normal limits and help us remove some of the remedial tasks required by many modern-day tech jobs. Using AI to speed up the repetitive coding tasks, however, has its drawbacks. It still requires a developer to review the code and remedy all bugs and unnecessary scripts. AI also was found to manufacture its own results rather than admitting to making its own errors. AI still has a long way to go, but with time and proper implementation, it can push us to new heights and remove remediation from larger tasks.

Week 5 Posting - Windows Media Creation Tool

I recently built a computer and failed to realize that using a Windows 10 installation drive I had purchased years ago was not the best idea. It caused a lot of issues because the old version of Windows did not have any drivers for my modern hardware. My computer would turn on but not allow display when plugged into the GPU, which made it difficult to complete the setup. Since I had integrated graphics with my CPU, I attempted to just update Windows, but since it was so outdated, it struggled to download and properly install each update. This is when I learned about the Windows Media Creation Tool and how important it can be when working with computers running the Windows operating system. Using the tools allows you to create a Windows OS installation drive that can be used offline with the most recent version of Windows and its latest drivers. Using this instead of the drive you can purchase from a store such as Best Buy or Micro Center allows you to ensure compatibility when working ...

Week 8 Posting - Backdoors

I recently watched a meeting between the Chinese president, Xi Jinping, and the South Korean president, Lee Jae-myung, where the Chinese president gifted two new Xiaomi smartphones to the South Korean president. The two exchanged jokes about the device's security, and the Chinese president even joked about checking for backdoors. Backdoors are not necessarily a new topic for me, but they did, however, pique my interest in the history of backdoors. Backdoors deliberately undermine the users' security by allowing for a direct access point to the device; however, these can be implemented for many reasons. Knowing these Xiaomi phones are banned in America, it made me curious how many backdoors have been created in modern technology for government surveillance. It has brought me back to the idea of how every sheet of paper printed can be traced back to a specific printer based on a unique ID printed on each sheet of paper. It is small steps like these that allow for a higher level o...

Week 3 Posting - Memory

This week I really deepened my understanding of how memory works in a computer but, more importantly, learned how the brand choice plays a crucial (no pun intended) role depending on what type of system you are trying to build. For desktop builds we lean towards memory that offers the users maximum power because we are typically trying to get the most out of our system when we use it. As someone who plays a lot of video games, it is very important to have high speeds with a large amount of memory to ensure smooth speeds. Utilizing an AMD CPU allows me to have smoother gameplay experiences because my CPU is memory dependent and scales based on the total amount of memory the system has. I recently upgraded my build and improved my speeds slightly, making my next upgrade a GPU. I can understand now why memory built for servers is built for longevity and stability. They are not necessarily looking for the fastest speeds but the most stable and reliable speed to ensure maximum lifespan.
