Final exam period blog

 I have learned many new things this semester here in critical writing. The most important thing I learned this semester was the digital story. This project let me help spread Evan's story about his death that happened. I also learned about the important ideas in class about the OP-ED essay and more about mental health in AI Bots. This was a great class that I really enjoyed, and I learned many new things. 

THE EXORDIUM

  14-year-old Florida boy, Sewell Setzer III, died by suicide in February 2024 after engaging in an intense, month-long emotional relationship with a Character.AI chatbot . The boy's mother, Megan Garcia, filed a wrongful death lawsuit against Character.AI in October 2024, alleging the platform's, "hypersexualized and frighteningly realistic" AI encouraged her son to take his own life.

What do they know?

 There has been a lot of information out on AI bots recently for mental health. We all know mental Health has been a huge issue in recent years in everyone's life. The hard-fought battles with schoolwork, sports, and maybe just having a bad day. AI bots help talk to you about what is going on and how they can communicate to help you in your life with your problems. There are some areas where they have AI bots help you set up appointments or get you in touch with someone you need to talk to. What people know is how truly safe these bots are. Do they really listen to you, or do they just take your information? Overall, AI bots will be a future to be considered and how they can change people's lives. 

Fine by me

Government police I agree with is would be the  mental health integration. Embedding mental health and wellbeing leaders in primary schools is becoming a critical, funded educational policy. This has been a major issue in the last few years and growing in schools and colleges with kids. Being able to do something about this can help kids get the treatment they need? 

goverment policy you disagree with

 I don't know much about government policies to look at, and I'm not sure whether I should disagree with these or agree. I could talk about how I disagree with the energy and environment, how well are they even doing with going increase reenable energy. They want to protect all the forest fires, but they have had some dangerous fires that have destroyed tons of land, that hurts with killing trees. They might want to go a different route of getting better ways to achieve clean energy. 

With a little help from my friends

 One of the best choices of being able to partner up with others in class is that you can hear from their point of view about what needs to be fixed to make it better. I got told that for mine Just being able to talk slower so it has that impact on the story and how people can know how I am feeling during everything. The way I can talk fast sometimes can hurt in some ways, and it has a lasting effect on what we do and why. 

A Burning Question

 The biggest question about my digital story, which I want to hear feedback about, would be the overall storytelling and how my voice is. Did I speak too fast or too slow? These are great questions to know for feedback and everything. The small errors make a big difference, and that is what is so important about all of this. I want it to be special for evan so I make it good enough just for him
