Toy Hack Reflection

When I first started on my toy hack I was a little confused on how I was going to symbolize a problem with toys. So I definitely had to put some thought into how I was going to complete it so I decided to write down some ideas on a word document first and then choose one that I thought would be best. I finally decided to use some Lego's to create a robot and also create some humans to represent the problem advancing artificial intelligence/technology can cause humans in the future through a slideshow. When I actually made my toy hack I had to tweak my idea of using Lego's (mostly because I'm not creative and I don't know how to create a robot or a human with Lego's), so after I realized my initial plan was not going to to work I decided to use a Batman toy that looked like a robot and some Lego's men that were already put together. The slideshow turned out well and it was pretty easy to put together once I got an idea of what I was going to do. Overall I think this project was pretty interesting and it was not as complicated as I initially thought it was going to be.

  1. The issue of advancing artificial intelligence is one that needs more attention now a days as science and technology are both expanding. I like how you realized that you needed to adapt your initial idea about how you were going to make your toy hack. Good work!

  2. I think you did a good job on this, even though you seemed a little down that you didn't make the legos yourself, the idea was still conveyed. I agree with both you and Chelsea that advancing technology is an issue, especially when the technology sometimes exceeds the ideas and control of its creators.
