1. Initial: The initial situation is when Odysseus is stuck on Calypso's island, against his will. (Page 64: "He says there's a man here, one of those who were nine years fighting before Priam's town, and the most unlucky of them all. It took them ten years to capture that city: then they set out for home, but on the way they offended Athena, and she raised a bad wind and a heavy sea against them. All his good comrades were drowned, but he as it seems was carried here by winds and waters. That's the man, and the orders are to send him away at once; for it is not his fate to perish in this place...")

Artificial intelligence (AI) refers to the ability of a computer to perform functions in a manner analogous to human decision making and learning. For instance, the GPS systems use automated learning, perception, reasoning, and understanding to find the best route that a user should take from several possible alternatives. However, the increase in effectiveness of AI?s has resulted in concerns about the potential risks that may result from such advances. Some of the concerns are about the possibility of the AI?s becoming ?superintelligent? and thus threatening the survival of humankind. Notably, just like ordinary softwares, AI softwares are subject to programming errors. Therefore, if these errors occur in sensitive AI applications such as health care, they may result in

Pg. 18 ?Sometimes he tried to hard to make sense of the world, to figure out why people were bad to each other so often.? When Westerberg describes Alex in this way, it immediately showed me the type of person he was. There are two generic types of people in the world; the type who don?t question anything about the society they live in, and the type of people who can?t think enough about it. Because Alex would ask himself questions that had no answer, he would tear himself apart about it. I believe this is why Alex was so unhappy living in the modern world. Some people can accept the unknown and others can?t. Pg. 30 ?And he was big-time hungry. Hungry, hungry, hungry. But real happy.?
