This is how I could use Blockchain for election processes
If we explore the possibility of using Blockchain as the database system for election processes around the world, there are a lot of reasons why this could be a viable option. The Blockchain system will work as a validation process during elections to show that each vote is unique, duplicated, and permanent. When data is being written in Blockchain, the data will transform into read-only data and will be invariable over time. Another of the advantages of using Blockchain is that the information or data can be accessed by the public without the risk of the data being changed and compromised, because like we said before after the information has been written into the database, it becomes a read-only file; hence the public, other companies, and media platforms will be able to get their hands on the real-time information and monitor the progress of the elections, so that reduces speculation and false reports.
Is St. Croix Equipped to Become Silicon Island?
St. Croix is the largest of the US Virgin Islands (USVI). You may remember that in the fall of 2017, St. Croix was hit by two back-to-back hurricanes — Irma and Maria. Approaching the fourth anniversary of this devastation, the island is still rebuilding. Artificial Intelligence (AI) is part of the recovery team. St. Croix’s conservation-restoration helps the Carnegie Airborne Observatory, which uses algorithms to identify coral reef anomalies due to the storms.

One reality, two options. You choose.
Since our creation, everything in life has been in constant evolution. Human beings, society, law, and technology, are examples in which their own evolution has been key to achieve all the advantages we have nowadays. Sometimes, changes come when we are still not ready for them, but we have two options: face reality, adapt or let reality eat us up. I prefer the first option.

Artificial Intelligence Has Yet to Fully Infiltrate Online Gaming
Original video games of the 1970s contained very little, if any, Artificial Intelligence (AI). Game code in these early days was made up of rather complex “if” statements that allowed for a fixed (and not always spontaneous) number of game choices and scenarios.

The American AI Initiative - A Spotlight on Artificial Intelligence
Remember when you had to tune in to the tv or radio and wait until the weather report came on? It’s hard to imagine such an inconvenience! Today, advancements in Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology are being used everywhere, even around the home. One example is Alexa; ask and “she” will play your favorite music, find a cell phone, or change the thermostat setting. Will we continue to accept AI in our day-to-day lives when it reaches outside our comfort zone and into sensitive areas such as security and national defense? And how will AI be managed as its uses expand?

How is the learning process of Artificial Intelligence?
The majority of living beings in the world go through a growing and learning process in which someone else teaches them how to do several things. If you look at humans, when we are children, our parents teach us specific behaviors and how to accomplish our obligations. If you see animals, their parents teach them how to hunt, survive, and defend themselves. We can find the same connection with Artificial Intelligence, and there will always be someone teaching or submitting information.
