While working on the Web Design Assignment, I learned how to create a website and personalize it. I also learned how to utilize Google Calendars as well as how to insert it into a website.

I do not know much about AI. I do not use it in my day to day life. Seeing how AI is impacting the writing field as well as the film and education fields prevents me from using it. By relying on AI, it discourages students and adults do not use their imagination. By discouraging children to use their imagination, their brains will not fully develop and they expect every answer given to them. They may not learn how to be creative and provide their own ideas.

I avoid ChatGPT at all costs. I have not used it for a class, and simply rely on my own skills. I have friends that use it to proof-read their assignments as well as answer grammatical questions.

I like using AI images for class because I enjoy seeing the pictures it produces. Otherwise, I would like to continue my separation from AI.

I think that AI does increase productivity because you are able to produce a lot product. Despite this, the quality of product decreases. Machines are unable to recreate the human experience so the product they create is very mechanical. We should still rely on humans to write and create media that people can still relate to. In the classroom, I would like to use AI as an activity, but I would like to encourage students to use their own imaginations rather than rely on technology.
