@Matt_Eps While AI may generate various forms of art, I agree that it will never entirely replace human artists. This is mainly due to the fact that AI lacks some human capabilities like the emotions that get poured into artistic creations.
@KATHERI93292019 I agree that virtual reality will soon permeate many other fields aside from gaming. It is already being utilized in areas including business where sales teams create immersive experiences with their clients to test products.
@jlr397_rutgers I think that 3-D printing has the potential to become a very lucrative digital technology in the medical field. The printer can utilize biocompatible plastic and significantly reduce the waiting time for organ donors.
One prediction I have for the future is that human-like AI will permeate the workplace by 2030. They are said to eventually be capable of holding nuanced conversations through language processing technologies and other algorithms. #DCIM353McCormick
My greatest takeaway from this course is the concept that industry giants fail as a result of their lack of digital transformation and innovation. To outrun competition, it is imperative for companies to be willing to change and adapt to new environments. #DCIM353McCormick
@serenali1808 The impact of social media at work is important to understand, especially regarding enmeshment and how this results in people becoming too readily available/working overtime.
@YuhanXie4 The five criteria of disruptive change (audience, culture, speed, scope, scale, & impact) are crucial for the exam and we should be able to apply them to real-world contexts.
I think an important aspect of the exam will be the innovator’s dilemma, a theory that explains why market leaders end up getting left behind when they fail to invest in disruptive technology. #DCIM353McCormick
@rukevinjoseph Video streaming services are classic examples of disruptive innovation as they shifted an existing market from renting DVDs to streaming digital movies/shows. It's safe to say that streaming will continue to surpass broadcast television and take over the mainstream media.
@jlr397_rutgers I chose to research big data for my EDTP as well and hope to develop my understanding of how machine learning, in particular, changes the way people function in their lives as it applies to nearly every field.
@briannebrownRU TikTok is most definitely an emerging, disruptive app in our current generation that has an immense cultural influence. The app fuels innovation and culture through content creation and will continue to spread creativity.
For my EDTP, I plan to research big data and machine learning, more specifically the predictive algorithms and analytics that help develop solutions. I'd like to explore how this form of artificial intelligence became a disruptive force in modern society. #DCIM353McCormick
@thesophiaverse Influencers increasingly facing public scrutiny is part of what creates a new social environment that requires them to constantly adapt. It challenges digital leaders to change their behaviors, or otherwise be boycotted from having an internet influence.
@KATHERI93292019 It's definitely far easier for people to harass others on anonymous accounts. Unfortunately, this anonymity aspect of social media encourages cyberbullying because perpetrators often do not take any accountability.
@JoeBrutgers Interesting point, and it seems that Venmo is also leading to fraudulent activity. More users are getting their accounts hacked and losing money as a result.
One observable change to social norms during the digital era may be highlighted by the #HeforShe movement. The campaign encourages users to take action against gender inequalities and prevent violence endured by women. https://t.co/k9Hi6DaiAS #DCIM353McCormick
Low end disruption - streaming services like Netflix
New market disruption - DoorDash (saves time, but not necessarily money because of extra delivery fees & tips)
