3 Places to visit in London

My top 3 places to visit in London are the following ones:

The Big Ben: It's the typical thing that comes to your head when someone say London. It's the tower of the Westminster Palace, although the name "Big Ben" is only the name of the bell in the tower.

The London Eye: Also known as the Milennium Wheel, it's one of the biggest lookout in the world. It's 135m tall and it's located on couny hall and next to the defence ministery's offices.

Buckingham Palace: It's the official residence of the royal family and the place where plitical-related meetings take place. It has the Royal Collection, a set of extraordinary paintings collected by different monarchs.

Silicon Valley bigwigs fund AI to protect humanity (tech work)

Summary:

This news talks about the progress in the Artificial Intelligence science field. Since Artificial Inteligence is a new science and has been already set out as a bad thing in movies and books, scientists are cynical towards it.

Elon Musk, Sam Altman and Peter Thier, each one of them being heavy technology investors, founded not so long ago the Artificial Inteligence field with aproximately 1 billion dollars with the objective of making the field progress.

But at the same time, there's people who sees this as a worrying subject, and they think that the AI field should grow slowly and controlled. For example, some of these people are: The Window's co-founder Bill Gates, the renowned scientist Stephen Hawking...

A non-profit research company called OpenAI has been recently open to ensure that the AI soesn't get out from human's hands. Currently, the research groups lead by Ilya Sutskever, who's a research scientist in google. OpenAI isn't the first group that tried to contain the AI, AI specialists of all around the world signed a letter issued by the Future Of Life Institute, that pledges to safely and carefuly coordinate the progress in the field.

Opinion:

I think that this is a complicate subject. We barely know what the AI could do if it grows too much, and could be dangerous. So I agree with every one who tries to keep it under safe contol and concerns about the discontroled growth of science in general.

Can technology change the world? (class essay)

Lately, there have been so many innovations in a lot of fields, so we should ask to ourselves if tech could make a better world.

 First of all, technology turned us very dependent to it, and some people can't live without it. It's a fact a lot of terms can't go outside without their respetive mobile phones. Likewise, another con of the growing technology, Is the huge consumtion of energy. It0s well known that the Earth is suffering from a climate change caused by all the Co2 emissions which are the consequences of our technology.

On the other hand, not all Is bad, thanks to technology, we can live a more comfortable life, and we can se the improvements every day. We've achieved some incredible things, we managed to solve some problems that we have had since ancient times, like: cooking, transports, improving our health, growing more food...

In conclusion, even of technology has its dark sides, it's obvious that technology has improved our way to see the world and made life easy, so we agree, technology can improve the world.

Syria's situation

Recently, after the constant terrorist attacks all over the western civilizations, those governments have started a campaign in syria to attack the terrorists who are ther, and also destroying the country.

In my opinion, I think that it's comprehensible that they want to get their revenge, but it's wrong. Attacking a whole country just for a minory that resides there just creates pain and suffer to all the innocents who live there, and by that, creating more hate against the west.

I would try to pacify th eregion first and controlling the borders and the people who gets in.
