by the appearance in Europe of a seemingly authentic letter from Prester John himself. He described himself as the ruler of the Three Indias, which extended from the Tower of Babel to the rising of the sun; he gave an elaborate account of the marvels and riches of his kingdom, and declared his intention of visiting the Holy Sepulchre after defeating the enemies of Christ.
was there an actual letter? or just a story that there was one?

With all music viewed as spiritual and thus medicinalwithin Indigenous cultures, it is often difficult for non-In-digenous people to see the spiritual significance of ourmusic.
I feel this is true because usually people do not understand what someone else is going through until they feel the same or something similar. So of course they cant understand how music or any other therapy could possibly help. But this is normal now. But Back then it meant that an entire culture of people would be judged criticized and more just because they could not understand them.

I find this very interesting that people used music as a form of spirituality. The ceremonies they had were very tied to their culture and this helped people , it gave them hope and guided them when they needed help or felt lost. If you think about it it sound like music back then was their form of counseling.

although there are no right or wrong ways to incor-porate mindfulness into the professional life of a musiceducator, allowing a simple and intentional daily practiceensures a more rewarding outcome.
This is something we all know. To live a healthy life we need to take care of our bodies and our mind and heart. Music is one of those things that you don't have to work for, kind of like dreading a workout or remembering to not eat that donut. With music you just play and enjoy or sing along, either way it is a healthy habit to have.

Music has always been a great medicine forme because there’s ability for me to be able to connect tothe metaphysical world. It’s so easy to do with music. Ihave the ability to conjure up instant energy somehow. Iknow people respond to my energy because I see it all thetime” (
This is so accurate because i feel this every day. I wake up and the first thing i do is change the music I play all night to something upbeat and fun and this is what gets me hyped up and ready for my day. Energy is very much tied to emotions.

However, refer-ences to the healing power of music among Cree peoplehave been found. Lynn Whidden (2007) referencesGeorge Nelson’s 1823 journal recount of a woman col-lapsing at dinner, and everyone rushed to their drums andrattles; they heard a “crack,” and the woman stood up asif nothing had happened and became well (2007, p. 23).Nelson’s journal entry describes this event where musicwas used to heal the bod
This is an amazing story where it shows how powerful music really is.
-
The answer that appears tohave eluded this question is that songs do not sing ofremedies because, to the Indigenous, the music ismedicine.
This line touched me because for me its the same. When i listen to music it is amazing and it does help me heal in many ways, But if i sing, create, or connect with people because of the music. That right there is the magic. That is the medicine for me. I know many people who feel the same and its not even about being a godd musician or having skill. It really does somethin gfor the soul when we sing or create music, even if its a random hum or a silly sound.

music ismedicine that requires great respect and care in its prac-tice
i think of the times i listened to music and it helped me get away from an unhealthy mentality.

Elon Musk [@elonmusk]. Trashing accounts that you hate will cause our algorithm to show you more of those accounts, as it is keying off of your interactions. Basically saying if you love trashing *that* account, then you will probably also love trashing *this* account. Not actually wrong lol. January 2023. URL:
This post perfectly illustrates a systemic feedback loop: when ranking models optimize for engagement (clicks, replies, dwell time), any interaction— even hate-watching or “dunking” — becomes a positive signal. The system can then amplify exactly what you say you dislike, because your behavior says “I’m interested.” A concrete example: if I constantly quote-tweet an account to criticize it, the recommender learns that content keeps me on the platform and will surface more of that account and similar ones, deepening an echo chamber of outrage. We all should be caution for this.

This article shows a possible violation of privacy right that Facebook made. Facebook makes 'allowing others to look up users' profile by phone number ' by default in order to recommend friends. However, these recommended friends might be ex or abuser, as this chapter says earlier. Also, the users cannot cancel this setting. But based on this article, this is currently changed. But users are still worrying about if their phone numbers can really be hidden completely.

Arvind Narayanan. TikTok’s Secret Sauce. Knight First Amendment Institute, December 2022. URL: http://knightcolumbia.org/blog/tiktoks-secret-sauce (visited on 2023-12-07).
In summary, this article explains TikTok's algorithm and why it is superior to other platforms (such as YouTube Shorts and Instagram Reels). The ability to easily scroll through videos makes the user not as perceptive to the fact that they are consuming a lot of content they don't like. Scrolling makes it easy to quickly find what they do want to watch. TikTok also has a vertical layout, which aligns with how users hold the phone and use their thumbs to scroll. Differently, most YouTube shorts creators are clipping longform horizontal content into shorts. TikTok also allows each video to have an audience by giving each video a chance to go viral even if the creator has minimal subscribers. This motivates consumers to also be creators and builds the TikTok empire further. Lastly, TikTok shows users videos from niches that they have never seen before. They are able to take this risk, because of the easily swipe-able format.

Individual analysis focuses on the behavior, bias, and responsibility an individual has, while systemic analysis focuses on the how organizations and rules may have their own behaviors, biases, and responsibility that aren’t necessarily connected to what any individual inside intends. For example, there were differences in US criminal sentencing guidelines between crack cocaine vs. powder cocaine in the 90s. The guidelines suggested harsher sentences on the version of cocaine more commonly used by Black people, and lighter sentences on the version of cocaine more commonly used by white people. Therefore, when these guidelines were followed, they had have racially biased (that is, racist) outcomes regardless of intent or bias of the individual judges. (See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fair_Sentencing_Act) [k3].
I think alogorithms recommendation creates filter bubbles and echo chambers: people see more of the same views, products, or communities, while different or challenging content gets hidden. They will then only see what they want to see. Over time, this can reduce diversity of information, reinforce stereotypes, and polarize groups—even if no one person wanted that outcome.

This perhaps explains why sometimes when you talk about something out loud it gets recommended to you (because someone around you then searched for it). Or maybe they are actually recording what you are saying and recommending based on that.
I'd like to add my personal experience to this. I have the feeling that when I talk about something or even think about it remotely, my social media pages know that I talked about it and start feeding me posts that relate to the things I was talking about. This makes me feel like I am being listened to on my phone and that my social media knows everything about my life.

By Kendra Cherry, MSEd Kendra Cherry, MS, is a psychosocial rehabilitation specialist, psychology educator, and author of the "Everything Psychology Book."
CONTEXT (Information about the author - makes the source more reliable)
-
The study of cross-cultural psychology and the inclusion of more representative and diverse samples in psychology research is essential for understanding the universality and uniqueness of different psychological phenomena. Recognizing how different factors manifest in various cultures can help researchers better understand the underlying influences and causes.
CONTEXT (Why cross-cultural psychology is important)
-
The etic approach studies culture through an "outsider" perspective, applying one "universal" set of concepts and measurements to all cultures.The emic approach studies culture using an "insider" perspective, analyzing concepts within the specific context of the observed culture.
CONTEXT (Types of cross-cultural psychology)
-
Many of the findings described by psychologists are focused on a specific group of people, which some researchers have dubbed Western, Educated, Industrialized, Rich, and Democratic, often referred to by the acronym WEIRD
CONTEXT
-
Culture refers to many characteristics of a group of people, including attitudes, behaviors, customs, religious beliefs, and values that are transmitted from one generation to the next.
CONTEXT (Key term definition - "culture")
-
This article discusses the history of cross-cultural psychology, different types of cross-cultural psychology, and applications of this field. It also discusses the impact it has had on the understanding of human psychology.
CORE THEMES
-
Key Takeaways Cross-cultural psychology studies how culture affects human behavior and thoughts.Different cultures may have varying views on individualism and collectivism.Researchers often rely on samples that are primarily Western, industrialized, rich, and democratic, which may limit the study's applicability to other cultures.

The best way to revise your thesis statement is to ask questions about it and then examine the answers to those questions. By challenging your own ideas and forming definite reasons for those ideas, you grow closer to a more precise point of view, which you can then incorporate into your thesis statement.
question yourself to help create a stronger thesis
-
Confidence In addition to creating authority in your thesis statement, you must also use confidence in your claim. Phrases such as “I feel” or “I believe” actually weaken the readers’ sense of your confidence because these phrases imply that you are the only person who feels the way you do. In other words, your stance has insufficient backing.
Stray away from words that might weaken your thesis such as i feel and i believe
-
Specificity A thesis statement must concentrate on a specific area of a general topic. As you may recall, the creation of a thesis statement begins when you choose a broad subject and then narrow down its parts until you pinpoint a specific aspect of that topic.
Being specific helps to narrow down the furthur points you want to discuss
-
A thesis is not your paper’s topic, but rather your interpretation of the question or subject. For whatever topic your professor gives you, you must ask yourself, “What do I want to write about it?” Asking and then answering this question is vital to forming a thesis that is precise, forceful, and confident.
The thesis will have the question that you use the rest of your essay to support
-
writers need a thesis statement to provide a specific focus for their essay and to organize what they will discuss in the body of their writing. A thesis statement is an argumentative central claim in a paper; the entire paper is focused on demonstrating that claim as a valid perspective. Your thesis statement should be in your introduction because you must make sure that the audience is aware of your paper’s intent so that there is clarity from the outset. Consider placing the thesis toward the bottom of your introduction. This allows you a few sentences to introduce the concept and prepare the reader for your purpose.
The thesis will outline what your essay will talk about

While the arrogance of youth was definitely present, I also knew that I was not trained to do large-scale empirical/statistical work, However I thought that the clinical approach of Freud and his followers
Freeman argues that his clinical and philosophical training, combined with his work at Bell Companies, provided the ideal method for SMASA. The logic is plausible, as he links his experience to the book’s methodology. However, the argument assumes that these combined approaches automatically yield meaningful insights without showing how or why they reliably produce valid conclusions.
-
Growing up fairly poor on a dirt farm in central Georgia, I took it as one of life's truths that one needed to be responsible for the effects of one's action on others. I needed to be sensitive to those I could 'affect' and those I could be 'affected by'.
Freeman emphasizes his lifelong commitment to stakeholder theory and ethical responsibility, which adds normative weight to the argument. A stronger version would integrate this personal insight with empirical evidence showing how stakeholder-focused practices tangibly improve businesses and society. Combining narrative with data would make the argument more persuasive to skeptical readers.
-
A second weakness was to focus a chapter on internal stakeholders. This was since in all of my clinical work, the executives leaped to the conclusion that they had internal stakeholders as well. There is some usefulness here, but it is also misleading from the standpoint of making businesses more sensitive to the external stakeholders.
The term “internal stakeholders” is somewhat vague and could confuse readers about the scope of stakeholder theory. Freeman admits it may be misleading, which highlights the need for precise definitions. Defining “internal” versus “external” stakeholders and explaining why the focus may mislead would make the argument clearer.
-
In many of the chapters in the book, I would put the ideas a bit differently today but that is the price of a book written nearly 40 years ago, However, SMASA also has many weaknesses, I think that the most glaring one is the imposition of a strategic planning framework on the book.
Freeman acknowledges weaknesses in SMASA while also defending its enduring relevance. While generally consistent, there is minor tension between admitting flaws and asserting the book’s continued authority. Clarifying how the book’s strengths outweigh its weaknesses would improve internal consistency and reader trust.
-
I was most disappointed some years later when Lee Preston and Tom Donaldson published an article that people understood as separating Normative, Descriptive, and Instrumental stakeholder research. In fact, I argued in a paper around the same time that this was a misinterpretation of this important paper.
Here, Freeman challenges interpretations that separate normative, descriptive, and instrumental approaches. He risks a straw man fallacy by portraying Preston and Donaldson’s work as a misinterpretation without fully engaging with their arguments. A more rigorous critique would explain precisely why the separation is flawed rather than dismissing it broadly.
-
basic logic of the book is that if we use the vocabulary of 'stakeholders', we will have a better understanding of how businesses actually work and create value, and how they can work better.
Freeman’s premise that using the stakeholder vocabulary improves understanding of business is reasonable but not universally provable. While stakeholder theory has influenced management, it may not always lead to better outcomes in every context. The claim is sound as a general observation, but acknowledging limitations or exceptions would strengthen credibility.

need using data and technology, and to offer them only products, services,and advice that are targeted to meet those desires and requirements.
The authors present a logically structured definition that connects understanding customer needs to offering tailored solutions. The reasoning is valid because it links cause, which is data-driven understanding, to effect, which is personalized offerings. However, the argument assumes that more data automatically leads to deeper understanding without considering issues of interpretation or bias. The logical structure is sound, but it rests on a strong assumption that data equals understanding.

China and the US have had a largely symbiotic relationship since the1980s regarding labor, manufacturing, and technology. In the early 1980s, thegovernments of the two countries agreed that US corporations could contractwith Chinese organizations to move their manufacturing operations to China toutilize the competent work and low wages of Chinese employees. As a result,approximately one sixth of US manufacturing jobs were lost to Chinese facto-ries.
The author claims that the relationship between China and the U.S. has been "largely symbiotic," but this statement may not be logically supported by the evidence provided. A truly symbiotic relationship implies mutual benefit, yet the example focuses mainly on U.S. job losses. The argument might be valid in structure but lacks balance in demonstrating how both sides benefited. More evidence on what the U.S. gained (e.g., lower consumer prices or corporate profits) would strengthen the validity.

The famed lingerie show began in 2001 and took place annually until 2019. Victoria's Secret canceled the show from 2019 to 2023 amid declining ratings and myriad controversies.
We can conclude that because of the declining ratings, Victoria Secret wants to bring something shiny and new to the screens. Angel Reese is a Black WNBA player that has become more and more popular over the last few years. It makes sense to add someone who is famous, doesn't have a similar background to many other models, and is a positive figure to the general public to walk the runway.

On Wednesday, Victoria's Secret announced that its fashion show will have an all-female musical lineup, starring Missy Elliott, Madison Beer, KAROL G and TWICE.
Announcing the people performing at the show in an article about Angel Reese joining the runway is an interesting choice. It may be a way to broaden the audience of who will be watching. Some people may not know Angel Reese, but some may be fans of Missy Elliot or TWICE.

What responsibilities do you think social media platforms should have in what their recommendation algorithms recommend? What strategies do you think might work to improve how social media platforms use recommendations?
I think social media platforms have the responsibility to recommend positive and correct content to people instead of just recommending content that people are interested in. One strategy is making another algorithm that verifies a post's authenticity and estimate its influence before it gets posted, avoiding too much fake and negative information is posted on the platforms. Another way is to allow users to report posts and get feedback about the recommendations from users.

This shows how in these studies the AI is pushing designers to make better content. If the same concept applies to other forms of business this could actually improve the quality of products and work. Overall this would be beneficial for the market. This provides a framework for AI coexisting with humans. It can lead us to a better future in industry and production of goods.

Prior research on AI limitations indicates that,although modern AI systems with advanced deep learn-ing capabilities are very impressive, humans are stillmore advanced in such qualities as creativity, imagina-tion, and emotions in general (Braga and Logan 2017)and creativity and emotional and social intentions indesign and art specifically (Hertzmann 2018, Mazzoneand Elgammal 2019). Recent advances in generativeadversarial networks (i.e., so-called creative adversarialnetworks) suggest that algorithms can be trained to usethe same distribution of styles used by human artists butat the same time to maximize the differences between anew algorithmically generated art and all prior works,thus making the AI-generated art as novel as possible
this shows that AI in these fields is still beat out by the best workers. Therefore, it is not really a threat to the industry as a whole but only the workers who are not as hard working. This would be beneficial for both the industry and workers. It would push workers to do greater things.
-
The findings of this study also have important practi-cal implications. Platform providers can use our findingsto better evaluate the impacts of AI systems on contestsand designers’ behaviors. Understanding how differentgroups of users respond to the launch of an AI systemcan help market providers to design relevant pricingand marketing strategies to optimize performance andrevenue from both sources: AI and human designers. Amore nuanced understanding of the capabilities andlimitations of AI systems relative to those of experthuman designers can help platform providers recom-mend specific guidelines for contest holders and contestparticipants to improve outcomes. This could also pavethe way for hybrid solutions that leverage the capabil-ities of both the AI system and human experts.
what the research suggests is that AI can have a very positive effect. If businesses and platform providers can, as it says, optimize performance and revenue from both sources, companies can maximize productivity while keeping their best workers and using AI. I think that this finds a nice balance between the two extremes.

Perhaps, the most interesting set of results pertainto the differences in how successful designers respondto the threat from AI compared with unsuccessful de-signers. In examining how the behaviors of successfuldesigners and the others differ in response to the AI sys-tem launch, we find that in contrast to the unsuccessfulcontestants who increase the number of contests theyparticipate in (by 13%–15%), the successful contestantssubstantially increase the number of submissions (by30%–60%) within a contest compared with the periodbefore the AI system launch. Furthermore, we find thatwith an increase in the number of submissions by suc-cessful designers, there is a concomitant significantincrease in the emotional content and the complexity oftheir designs after the AI system launch. On the other
This suggests that AI in these markets could be a good thing. It shows that in these scenarios AI kneaded out the less skilled or determined artists. This left only the most skilled and determined who increased quality to compete. This idea of healthy competition is the basis of capitalism. More competition by producers means better products.

AI system. To understandwhether and how designers change their design sub-missions in response to the threat from AI, we measurethe designs’ emotional content and complexity becausethose variables have been shown (by prior research inpsychology and marketing) to affect esthetic perceptionof art and design images as described later. We thenexamine whether and how the emotional content andcomplexity of design submissions affect the likelihoodof winning a contest and how these differ for successfuland unsuccessful designers before and after the intro-duction of the AI system.
The area of creative design, which can be expanded into marketing as a whole, once felt safe from the advent of technology. But what was once believed to be untouchable due to its reliance on human intellect is now being threatened by AI. people's newfound reliance on AI is creating a dangerous situation for people in these fields.

How do designers respond to the introduction of theAI system for logo design tasks?How do the behaviors of successful designers differfrom the behaviors of other designers in response to theintroduction of the AI system?This study builds on the theory of threat. Specifically, weuse a theoretical lens of the protection motivation theory(PMT; Rogers 1975, 1983) to understand possible responsesof designers to the threat of AI. The protection motivationand protection behaviors depend on whether individualsfeel the threat and whether they have coping abilities todeal with the threat. According to the PMT, individualswho do not perceive a threat will not respond to it. Amongthe others, individuals will take steps to avoid the threat orexhibit adaptive behaviors based on their ability to dealwith the threat.
This is pertinent because human workers at the moment feel threatened by AI. An important question is how will they react to the threat? Will workers improve their quality of work to compete? Will they give up? What reactions they have to its introduction are important to know for companies choosing whether to use AI or not.

Marx got much of the problemnght; he got the solution wrong. Many of those in business ethics are trying bypiecemeal change to help society improve by helping corporations improve. Alltoo often even those engaged in political philosophy deal only with governmentalchange or individualistic approaches to human rights, ignonng the very real andoften dominating influence of the modern global corporation. Those in businessethics focus on business and see it not only as one of the causes of the ills thatMarx described but as one of the key players in the amelioration of those ills. WhileRorty has been battling academic philosophy in its analytic incarnation, througha quiet revolution in philosophy departments those in applied and business ethicshave been pursuing what he seems to agree is important. Where he and they maydisagree is on whether Marx was indeed correct that practice needs to be informedby theory. Those in business ethics believe that it does
In this part of the article, De George supports the idea that small, gradual improvements in business ethics are more realistic and effective than trying to completely change the entire economic system. This argument makes sense because practical, step-by-step changes are often easier to achieve and sustain within existing business structures. However, the strength of this claim depends on how effective those small reforms actually are—sometimes they only create the appearance of progress without fixing deeper issues. To make his argument stronger, De George could acknowledge these trade-offs and explain when gradual reform is enough and when bigger structural changes are necessary, using real examples of companies or industries where ethical improvements led to meaningful change.

Rorty ends by expressing a need for something to replace Marx's communistutopia-even though Marx was trained as a philosopher and wrote no novels orstories. Rorty's observations about "jungle capitalism" are not likely to move any-one to action or even to serious thought. Rorty concludes, "Perhaps the businessethics community will provide an environment in which such dreams are encour-aged" (381). The business ethics community, of which those trained in philosophyTHE RELEVANCE OF PHILOSOPHY TO BUSINESS ETHICS 389form a large part and had a large hand in bringing about, is attempting and has inpart succeeded in providing such an environment. Marx got much of the problemnght; he got the solution wrong. Many of those in business ethics are trying bypiecemeal change to help society improve by helping corporations improve. Alltoo often even those engaged in political philosophy deal only with governmentalchange or individualistic approaches to human rights, ignonng the very real andoften dominating influence of the modern global corporation.
In this section, De George praises philosophers who take a practical approach by working directly with real-world ethical issues, but he also emphasizes the influence of major thinkers like Kant and Mill on business ethics. This creates a bit of tension because if the strength of applied ethics is its focus on context and practicality, then relying too much on broad, abstract theories could seem inconsistent. De George does hint that both can work together—using traditional theory as guidance while solving concrete problems but he doesn’t fully explain how they connect. To make his argument clearer, he could show exactly how universal theories can be applied in specific business contexts without losing their practical value.

to add unless it can be considered enlarging society's moral imagination. My sug-gestion is that even if he chooses to use that criterion, he will End that the field ofbusiness ethics, as developed by philosophers, measures up to it, providing he doesnot use an arbitrarily narrow definition of moral imagination.The third strand of business ethics is the business ethics movement. That move-ment can be dated from the mid-1980s. It is not entirely irrelevant that it came afterthe development of the field, and has been influenced by the field. Not all busi-nesses, not all business persons, not all professors of business have embraced thefield or the movement. But the movement clearly is part of the existing social scene.The field has influenced ethics in business and has influenced the business ethicsmovement, and each of them has influenced the others
In this part of the article, De George disagrees with Rorty’s idea that philosophy should be judged by whether it improves people’s character. Instead, he suggests that philosophy’s value lies in helping expand moral imagination and guide institutions. This argument makes logical sense because changing the standard for evaluation naturally changes how we see philosophy’s relevance. Still, De George never clearly defines what “moral imagination” means, which makes his point feel a bit vague and open to interpretation. To make his argument stronger, he could give specific examples of what an expanded moral imagination looks like in practice, like when companies start recognizing more stakeholder interests or include human-rights principles in their values.

Included in the movementhas been the development of codes of conduct, compliance programs, corporateethics officer positions, ethics training programs, and other trappings of ethics.More importantly, as public consciousness has been raised about sweatshops andenvironmental protection, so corporate policies have at least to some extent changed.Whether corporations taLk of the triple bottom line, or of corporate social respon-sibility, or of ethics and whether one sees their actions as merely public relationsreactions to criticism or as more nobly inspired-corporations are slowly changingtheir behavior and taking into account not only shareholders but what have becomeknown as other stakeholder
In this section, De George suggests that the work of philosophers has influenced corporate behavior and the way companies talk about ethics. The argument makes sense because it follows a clear logic—philosophers create moral frameworks, those ideas spread through education and public discussion, and eventually, companies adopt new ethical policies or language. However, De George doesn’t fully prove that philosophers were the main cause of these changes, since factors like laws, market demands, media pressure, or social movements could also explain them. This makes his claim seem a bit overstated. To make it stronger, he could mention clear examples of philosophers directly advising businesses or policymakers, showing how their ideas actually shaped corporate reforms.

The same is true of our philosophy departments. Taking a course-or severalcourses- in ethics is no guarantee that one's character will be improved. But thereTHE RELEVANCE OF PHILOSOPHY TO BUSINESS ETHICS 387is some likelihood that one's moral sensibility-or one's moral imagination willbe expanded and, even using Rorty's criteria, that may help students be better per-sons, if they are so inclined or motivate
In this part of the article, De George argues that moral imagination by itself is not enough and that ethical theory is needed to make sense of conflicting intuitions and to justify actions. The argument follows a logical path because if intuitions often clash, then using structured frameworks can help organize and clarify them. However, De George presents theory as the only real way to create coherence, without acknowledging that there are other valid ethical methods like narrative ethics, casuistry, or reflective equilibrium. This creates a small false dichotomy because he makes it seem like we must choose between imagination and theory when in reality both can work together. To make his point stronger, he could include examples of how theory and intuition complement each other in ethical reasoning.

Thedeconstruction of the counterfactual premises ofneoclassical economics lets us appreciate that there is,in fact, a considerable room for ethics not onlyoutside but also inside the economy (Brodbeck,2000).
In proposing "humanistic management" as an answer, Dierksmeier identifies moral rationality as the wellspring of better business decisions. Ethically persuasive, this can be supported further with empirical or policy based evidence like the integration of behavioral economics or stakeholder theory on order to show how moral and functional incentives converge. This would transform his proposal from philosophical to a pragmatically testable approach, making it more useful for management educators.
-
sustainability or humanistic management, however,students then encounter, as a no less fundamental butobverse premise, the doctrine of human freedom –now being introduced as the indispensable founda-tion of any and all managerial responsibility
The term "freedom" shifts on menaing throughout the paper-from philosophical autonomy to managerial discretion to moral accountability. This semantic slide is disorienting. At some points, "freedom" refers to freedom from coercion by other individuals, at others, it refers to moral transparent with clear definitions of each occurrence of the term and how they relate. Otherwise, readers will likely conflate ethical responsibility with strategic flexibility.
-
Instead ofcontinuing to hold fast to the elusive ideal of value-free science, we should rather concentrate on thevalues intrinsic to any and all scientific research(Douglas, 2009).
The writer contends that economics should not be "value free" but should come out explicitly with its normative foundations. But previously in the chapter, he criticizes utilities as being too relativistic and subjective about values. There is a slight inconsistency here, he wants economics to be normatively sensitive and yet not subjectivist. To get out of this contradictions, he might have to be more precise about his ideal normativity that it is humanistic universalism, rather than utilitarian relativism. This clarification would make the general ethical stance more coherent.
-
Yet, the mechanistic nature of the still prevalentparadigm of neoclassical economics,2 where corpo-rations are portrayed as ‘‘machines’’ for profit-maximization, subject to iron laws of competition,seems wholly impervious to considerations of freeagency (Brodbeck, 2000).
Dierksmeier contends neoclassical economics' "physicalistic paradigm" makes economics inhuman by reducing people to predictable machines. While a good criticism, it risks being a straw man fallacy by oversimplifying neoclassical economics. Most modern economist concede bounded rationality and behavioral factor. His critique would be more effective if he was distinguished classical reductionism from more recent schools of behavioral economist rather than grouping all of economist.
-
All responsibility presupposes freedom, and cor-porate responsibility makes no exception; the de-mand for (more and better) corporate responsibilityrequires managerial freedom, e.g., to deviate frommaxims of sheer profit-maximization in favor ofmore comprehensive managerial objectives.
The author argues that freedom is required to all responsibility, and corporate responsibility therefore requires managerial discretion. This argument is philosophically sound in moral theory but dubious in applied economics. It rests on the presumption that freedom and constraint are mutually exclusive, ignoring the fact that much of moral action is under constraints. The argument would sound much stronger if Dierksmeier allowed for degrees of freedom or situational limits to moral responsibility rather than an either or solutions.
-
. I arguethat neglect of the idea of freedom in economic theoryhas led to an inadequate conceptualization of the ethicalresponsibilities of corporations within management the-ory.
Dierksmeier argues that the failure to include freedom in economic theory leads to flawed models of corporate responsibility . The structure of his argument follows a logical path, he connects the failure to mention "freedom" in theory and ethical failure in practice with the case of business school education. his conclusion, however, rests on huge assumption that managerial l ethics is directly affected by theoretical assumptions. That casual relationship, while convincible, is asserted but not established with sound empirical evidence. A stronger version would have such evidence included in comparison of ethics outcomes in humanistic schools versus non-humanistic schools.

The intention of this article was to illustrate the seven building blocks of the dark side of social media, in great part to motivate further research that tries to untangle the underlying mechanisms in new ways. Existing theories cannot necessarily be transferred to the social media sphere (Naylor, Lamberton, & West, 2012). New theories, or combinations of existing theories, might better suit the inherent characteristics of social media, akin for example, to Scheiner, Krämer, and Baccarella (2016) who base their theoretical framework to explain unethical behavior on social media by entrepreneurs on the concept of moral disengagement and regulatory focus theory. We believe that our dark side honeycomb framework can help to motivate and guide the combination of lenses from different disciplines in order to develop novel theories, models, and classification frameworks that shed light on the dark side of social media.4.2. Use adequate methodologies for online and dark contexts!There is a significant opportunity for future research studies using contemporary methodologies that suit the characteristics of social media. For instance, a recent and effective development for understanding online behavior might be netnography (a portmanteau of Internet and ethnography), which allows researchers to study social interaction in modern digital communication contexts. However, a lot has happened since its introduction by Kozinets in 1998: smart phones with high-definition cameras, ubiquitous data networks, and social media networks that did not exist at all. The activities in the sharing building block of the dark side honeycomb, for instance, certainly were not the same before the widespread adoption of these tools, and neither were likely any of the other building blocks. These technological developments and their pervasiveness in our society certainly warrant the advancement of digital data collection and analysis methodologies. Especially in light of recent advancements (e.g., artificial intelligence-powered social media content analysis tools included in IBM Watson), we hope that fellow researchers will develop and test new ways in which we can study the dark side of social media.
The authors’ call to action is clear but focuses mainly on future research rather than immediate solutions. They could improve the argument by connecting each research goal to a specific action that platforms or organizations can take now. For example, linking the framework to privacy guidelines or anti-harassment measures would make the recommendations feel more urgent. Expanding these ideas would create a stronger bridge between academic theory and everyday application
-
the more outrageous the posting, the quicker it tends to spread and harm reputations.
This observation is believable, but the authors do not provide enough evidence to fully support it. It assumes that all viral posts are outrageous, which may not always be true. Adding research about how emotional or shocking content affects engagement would make this claim more credible. Without that support, the statement feels more like an assumption than a verified fact
-
The dark side of this functionality is that the location and availability of users are known and can be tracked without their awareness or consent.
This example effectively shows the privacy risks connected to location tracking on social media. However, the authors could improve this section by suggesting realistic solutions such as opt-in tracking or time-limited data storage. These ideas would not only highlight the problem but also guide readers toward potential policy changes. Offering a concrete path forward would make the paper more practical and relevant for real-world use
-
we suggest that each functional block of the framework can also be used to help to understand and examine different aspects of the dark side of social media.
This sentence shows good consistency within the article’s argument. The authors apply the same honeycomb framework that was previously used to study the positive aspects of social media, which keeps the analysis balanced and structured. Using the same framework for both sides of the issue makes comparisons easier and prevents the reasoning from appearing one-sided. This consistent structure helps the argument feel more logical and unified throughout the paper
-
The “shallowing hypothesis,” for instance, suggests that certain types of social media activity (e.g., sharing and conversing) lead to a decline in ordinary daily reflective thinking and instead promote quick and superficial thoughts that can result in cognitive and moral triviality.
The idea of “shallowing” is interesting but not clearly defined in this context. The authors should explain how reflective thinking is measured and what evidence supports this decline. Without defining the term, the statement feels vague and difficult to evaluate critically. Providing a short summary of a related study or explaining the criteria for “superficial thinking” would make this claim more concrete and understandable.
-
social media are not good or bad, helpful or unhelpful, black or white, and bright or dark.
This statement is effective because it avoids the false dichotomy fallacy that would label social media as purely positive or purely negative. The authors recognize that technology has mixed consequences depending on how it is used. This balanced approach strengthens their argument because it shows awareness of nuance rather than oversimplification. It also supports the credibility of their later discussion about the dual nature of social media.
-
For example, there have been an increasing number of reports and research attention into concerns such as cyberbullying (O'Keeffe & Clarke-Pearson, 2011), trolling (Buckels, Trapnell, & Paulhus, 2014; Hardaker, 2010), privacy invasions (Pai & Arnott, 2013), fake news (Allcott & Gentzkow, 2017; European Commission, 2018), online firestorms (Pfeffer, Zorbach, & Carley, 2014), and addictive use (Blackwell, Leaman, Tramposch, Osborne, & Liss, 2017).
This claim seems sound because it references real studies and current issues that most readers recognize as true. However, the authors could make the argument stronger by including more concrete data or recent statistics that show the scope of these harms. Without measurable evidence, the argument depends too heavily on secondary sources. A few specific numbers or case results would increase the truth value of their claims and make the reasoning more persuasive
-
Many studies have touted the advantages that social media would bring to individuals and firms (e.g., Kumar, Bezawada, Rishika, Janakiraman, & Kannan, 2016; Sabate, Berbegal-Mirabent, Cañabate, & Lebherz, 2014; Wagner, 2017). They highlight the “bright side of social media” and how engagement between firms and consumers is being democratized (Kietzmann, Hermkens, McCarthy, & Silvestre, 2011). For firms, this means social media would improve marketing, public relations, customer service, product development, personnel decision-making, and other business activities that rely on information exchanges and engagement with consumers and employees. Many of these advantages have materialized, thus leading almost 50% of all EU firms to use at least one form of social media in 2017 (Eurostat, 2017b). These firms use social media to not only broadcast company content but also track sentiment worldwide by analyzing user-generated content (Paniagua, Korzynski, & Mas-Tur, 2017), consumer-generated intellectual property (Berthon, Pitt, Kietzmann, & McCarthy, 2015), and interactions on social networking sites (Wagner, Baccarella, & Voigt, 2017), to adjust their business and marketing strategies appropriately.Regardless of the numerous opportunities social media offer, an increasing number of incidents demonstrate that there is undoubtedly a “dark side” to social media.
The authors make a logically valid point by contrasting the benefits of social media with its negative consequences. The reasoning makes sense because the same features that allow communication and connection can also spread harm. Still, the paragraph would be stronger if the authors connected specific social media features directly to the harms they cause. This would make the relationship between benefits and drawbacks more precise instead of relying on general contrast

The third component of the love triangle is commitment/decision (Sternberg, 1986, 1988). This component refers to the decision to love someone and the commitment to maintain that love. Because commitment is based on cognition and decision making, Sternberg referred to it as the “cool” or “cold” component. Of the three components of the love triangle, commitment is most stable over time with commitment typically building gradually and then stabilizing (Acker & Davis, 1992). Commitment is a stronger predictor of relationship satisfaction and longevity than either intimacy or passion (Acker & Davis, 1992; S. S. Hendrick, Hendrick, & Adler, 1988). In a study by Fehr (1988), college-aged students rated how closely various words or phrases, such as affection and missing each other when apart, relate to love. Of the 68 words and phrases Fehr listed, the word trust was rated as most central to love. Commitment ranked 8th overall, suggesting that it is also critical in people’s conceptualizations of love. The other two components of the triangular theory of love were also important, although less central, with intimacy ranking 19th and sexual passion rating 40th. Fehr (1988) also had college-aged students rate words and phrases describing the concept of commitment. Loyalty, responsibility, living up to one’s word, faithfulness, and trust were the top five descriptors of commitment, suggesting that commitment involves being there for someone over the long haul. Yet commitment alone is not enough to keep a relationship happy. Fatuous love is rooted in commitment and passion without intimacy. This type of love is relatively rare in modern times. Relationships that exemplify fatuous love are committed but are based on sex rather than intimacy. Historically these included mistress relationships where there was an arrangement for long-term support for sex without emotional intimacy. Some modern-day friends-with-benefits relationships also fit this description to some extent, especially when two people are long-term hookup buddies but do not have the type of emotional connection that romantic couples have (see Chapters 9 and 10 for more on friends-with-benefits relationships). Most hookup buddies, however, have little commitment. In general, these relationships are less satisfying than those characterized by consummate or romantic love. Fatuous love: A type of love characterized by commitment and passion without intimacy. The least satisfying relationships are characterized by empty love, which means they have commitment but relatively low levels of intimacy and passion. Some long-term relationships fall into this category. For instance, if partners no longer feel attached to each other but stay together for religious reasons or because of the children, their love might be characterized as empty. In other cases, empty love characterizes the beginning of a relationship. For example, spouses in arranged marriages may begin their relationships with empty love. Intimacy and passion may, or may not, emerge later.
This passage explains how commitment functions as the rational or “cool” part of Sternberg’s triangular theory of love, emphasizing decision making and long term stability. I found it interesting that commitment is described as a stronger predictor of relationship satisfaction than intimacy or passion. It shows that emotional or physical connection alone isn’t enough to sustain love. The mention of trust being rated as most central to love makes sense because trust reinforces reliability and loyalty which are essential for long term relationships. What stands out is that even though commitment is crucial, the passage reminds us that it can’t exist in isolation. Without intimacy, relationships can become mechanical or unfulfilling, like the “fatuous love” described. This makes me think about how modern relationships often emphasize passion early on but may struggle to build the consistent trust and loyalty that real commitment requires.

It does not propose toidentify the risk level of AI systems but rather focuses on its outcome toregulate.
If the UK’s plan doesn’t identify risk levels and only focuses on outcomes, they wouldn't know which systems are dangerous. It feels like they’re assuming outcome-based regulation will work just as well without proving it. I would say that shows hasty generalization because skipping risk evaluation could mean missing red flags early on.

It was shocking to me that most countries that were surveyed did not have specific laws for AI accountability in 2020. This shows that even though people have been talking about regulating AI for a while, actual rules haven’t caught up. The paragraph says that having laws automatically makes AI safer, but it doesn’t explain how these rules would actually be enforced. And I feel like there is some false cause in this because it just assumes that passing laws will simply make AI safer. It is also important to see what countries created good regulations or showed cases where the lack of laws caused real problems.

But what does it mean to be a compelling character? Some distinguish between round and flat characters. A round character is a complex, often conflicted character with a deep internal life who usually undergoes some kind of change over the course of the story. A flat character lacks that complexity, does not change at all over the course of the story, and is usually there only to help the more round characters on their journeys.
Round characters feel real because they grow and wrestle with conflict, while flat characters are more like support beams holding up the main story.

Act three, which is usually about the same length as act one, is all about our protagonist rallying to overcome that last obstacle leading to a climactic showdown and a resolution to their story. Usually that means they reach the goal defined in act one. But sometimes the journey clarifies a new goal, or they realize they always had what they were searching for and just needed to see it in themselves (insert eye roll here). But you get the idea, act three brings some kind of resolution.

This is critical milestone of enterprise systems, platforms transformation going forward. We started with mostly rule-based systems with special purpose programming languages, systems often needed specific logic, rule changes by specific programming language skills to maintain, support. However, with data-driven systems, system will adapt with evolving rule, patterns changes as needed with minimal supervision, validation testing and based on feedback loop mechanisms.

An example of this is the photos app. It automatically puts together collections of memories from certain locations or time periods and then shows them when you open the photos app. This can be problematic, because sometimes the "memories" are not pleasant. It might be a collection of photos of you and your ex, a collage of your homework from middle school, or from a funeral.

The social model of disability agrees that a society and its structure relate to the phenomenon of disability. It isn’t only a personal medical problem. It’s more about how society responds to people, such as its attitudes and its systems. For example, if a person who has leg injuries goes to a building without elevators, she/he is considered disabled.

I can also relate to this content. I've encountered anxiety during my sophomore year. For example, it is more difficult for me to focus on studying, such as reading textbooks online. I would have to force myself to read the paper books in a quiet environment. What's more, I was very vigilant about talking to people, being afraid that those surrounding me might be harmful. This helped me realize how certain environments or tools might not be built for people dealing with anxiety or other mental health challenges, and how better design could make learning and communication more accessible for everyone.

Zack Whittaker. Facebook won't let you opt out of its phone number 'look up' setting. TechCrunch, March 2019. URL
This article enlightens readers on how Facebook is now requiring to take users phone number for their "look up" feature now. Users on the facebook are restricted from opting out this option as well. This look up feature entails that user's numbers are publicly available to those searching up. Facebook has been trying to justify these means by saying it's an extra safety measure taken by them to reduce threats.

What experiences do you have of social media sites making particularly good recommendations for you?
I've had many experiences with social media apps that utilize my algorithm to make good recommendations for me. For example on TikTok when I look at a specific ad/like the post it will recommend me more items that were like that encouraging me to buy it. When I like a video in regards of hair products more videos on how to take care of my own hair will pop up. Providing me with useful tips and tricks.

What experiences do you have of social media sites making particularly good recommendations for you? What experiences do you have of social media sites making particularly bad recommendations for you?
I feel like algorithms are very on and off when it comes to recommendations. One day, it can help me find a channel that I really enjoy and the other it could feel like there’s nothing that interests me. I think more times than not, it knows relatively what I want to watch but I think its addictive nature is harmful. The amount of time that I spend on Youtube lets the platform learn more about what I want to watch when in order to recommend things to me.

Good list of issues in this article. This issue of Credential Exchange Protocol / Format is so key to me, and so timely for this article, since the initial 1.0 was done a year ago. AFAIK there aren't implementations yet, Passkeys are locked on a device.

Typical brainstorming sessions are an hour-long opportunity for a team’s extroverts to dominate discussion and generate ideas while the introverts struggle to contribute.
I'm not sure this is usually the "typical" brainstorming experience, at least not in a smaller group.
-
Mind maps are visual diagrams used to represent words, ideas, tasks or other items linked to and arranged around a central keyword or idea. Often, colours and drawings add to the visualization.
I enjoyed reading about mind mapping, seems like a great way to include seeing the idea in front of you and adding visualization as a component. Definitely trying this out.
-
This process can continue until you find an idea everyone believes in. Flesh out the winning sketches with details before moving to prototype creation and user testing.
This way of brainstorming isn't familiar with me so I can see how this is useful. It does seem like a fun kind of "game" to get the juices flowing.

“What if there is no gravity, how can we improve the flying experience?”
This is a great way to think about it, similar to wishing, it is a great way to build processes. I can see why this is a very useful way to brainstorm.

Ask participants to focus on generating bad ideas only. They should consider everything that couldn’t work before you ask them “What can we do to make these ideas work better?”
This is a similar point to the other article. I like how it alleviates the tension and pressure that people feel during a brainstorm.

Acquiring good taste comes through using various things, discarding the ones you don’t like and keeping the ones you do. if you never try various things, you will not acquire good taste.
This is the core point I was hoping for. I don't think it's super well supported or well argued here. But it shows up.
We don't know who we are unless we try new things, unless we put ourselves through processes of discovery. Taste comes from trying, and the tinkerers are down to FAFO.

Most complex software ships with a few bugs. Obviously, we want to avoid them, but the more complex a feature is, the harder it is to cover all the use-cases. As we get closer to our RC date, do we feel confident that what we're shipping has as few blocking bugs as possible? I would like to say we're close, but the truth is I have no idea. It feels like we'll have to keep trying the features for a bit until we don't run into anything - but we have less than 3 weeks before the RC ships. Here's a few surprising bugs that need to get fixed before I would feel comfortable shipping node12 in stable.
-
however, the feature is much more expansive, and over the past few weeks, a few of us have grown a bit concerned about the complexity.

starting to feel brain dead toward the end of a brainstorming session
I feel it would be better to take a break from brainstorming for said people that feel brain dead towards the end. Personally, I would have trouble wanting to brainstorm more.

place them in a table, with the original words at the top of each column and the alternatives you have brainstormed arranged in columns below them.

20 to 30 assumptions
What happens if you generate more? Is there a reason why you shouldn't generate more than that?
-
By temporarily focusing on really bad ideas, it frees them to relax and have fun. Laughter is also a stepping stone to helping people generate surprising or unexpected connections – the basis of most humor. Plus, Mattimore points out, it’s the nature of our brains, when thinking about one idea, to simultaneously consider its opposite.
This feels similar to the pessimist/optimist kind of ideation mentioned in the YouTube videos. It does seem a lot easier to generate ideas on what not to do, and similar to wishing, build up the steps towards a great idea. This sounds like an extremely useful way to brainstorm without the pressures of coming up with a great idea immediately.
-
If you’re trying to generate new product ideas, select images that are broadly evocative of your product category. Be sure to include some random or irrelevant images in your selections as well, because sometimes those types of stimuli can lead to the most creative solutions.
This is perfect for visual learners and can definitely get ideas going. Usually when I'm trying to brainstorm I just see what comes up in my head but using images could help get to where I want faster. I'll try this out for sure.
-
Mattimore points out there are no “rules” to using this technique. Don’t be afraid to let the keyword prompts take you far afield from them. And don’t be concerned if you generated an idea that only uses two of the three words. The point of semantic intuition is simply to get you to think differently.
This kind of technique never occurred as something to do with peers. It seems like another way to bounce ideas off of one another and I like how there aren't any particular set of "rules."
-
This helps people who may not be able to think of any new ideas and may help them to see the ideas their colleagues have written in a new light. It also helps the team generate a wider diversity of ideas.
Bouncing ideas off of peers and colleagues does seem to be the most effective and flexible way of ideation. Two brains are better than one, if you have the opportunity to. "Triggered brainwalking" was not a term I would have thought of to classify this at all.
-
you start out by asking for the impossible and then brainstorm ways to make it, or at least some approximation of it, possible. The first step is to make your wishes tangible.
This is my most used form of ideation, making what is seemingly possible into something of reality. Although the term "wishing" might seem out of reach, it certainly can become tangible if you write out the proper steps.
-
The bottom line is that opportunity redefinition is a powerful way to help you remove “blinders” you didn’t even realize were restricting your vision. In other words, it enables you to see a wider range of possibilities than you may have ever considered before.
Opportunity redefinition sets up a great foundation for expanding your range of possibilities. This style of ideation is rather new to me, so I will definitely apply it to my next brainstorming.
-
By questioning assumptions in an enterprise during every point of the product or service development process, we can entertain new ideas and possibilities, that can help us to overcome worst scenarios arising against business success
I like this idea! Successful ideas and projects should always be questioned, and being able to answer those questions is what leads to amazing outcomes.

Most industries have an orthodoxy – a set of deeply-held, unspoken beliefs that everyone follows when it comes to “how we do things around here.”

Whether in old times, beyond the reach of history or tradition, and in some remote period of civilization, when, as some imagine, the arts may have flourished to a degree unknown to those whom we term the Ancients, there existed an intercourse between the opposite shores of the Atlantic; whether the Egyptian legend, narrated by Plato, respecting the island of Atalantis, was indeed no fable, but the obscure tradition of some vast country, engulphed by one of those mighty convulsions of our globe, which have left traces of the ocean on the summits of lofty mountains, must ever remain matters of vague and visionary speculation.
Observation : The author is talking about how in ancient times there may have been an island called Atlantis
Interpretation : Since there were many unexplored and unfound places in ancient times, the author is saying that there was an island that was called Atlantis that was never discovered
Connection : This connects to how many places in ancient times were discovered and that there were many unknown places at the time.
Context : This is to show what is coming up because the author is talking about the ice of Christopher Columbus and highlight his achievements

The topic of one-way doors fascinated me. These are decisions that can’t be undone. They require a mix of experience, intuition, optimism, and authority.
Yet in software, I think engineering culture has adopted an eagerness not for adaptability and remakeability, but a penchant for simple-as-can-be directness. We want to build only enough, even if that means not supporting broader possible futures.

I'm surprised they included that the crime has to be proven. This is similar to our modern days justice system's idea of "innocent until proven guilty".

If any one have hit a free woman who is pregnant, and she dies, he shall be sentenced to 28000 denars, which makes 700 shillings.
This tells me that the Franks saw women as property and breeding items. Since a woman who has just begun bearing children has the largest penalty has the highest penalty makes me think this has something to do with the religious ideas of a woman's sexual "purity" defining her value. Or she has the most potential of having more children,

An example I often cite to drive home AI’s importance to our careers is that of Microsoft Office. Back in the 90s, MS Office did not seem like a mandatory tool to familiarize oneself with. It became one over time. Today, you are expected to know how to use Word, PowerPoint, or Excel. That, however, does not mean that you’ve had to learn how to build these applications, only to understand what they can and cannot do and to leverage them. That is the trajectory AI is on.
This is an important point that shows what the future of AI might be. Looking back, a lot of things that are now a major part of how work gets done were all new at one point and people were against them. This is the way a lot of people view change and they don't believe it will ever work out. AI is new and people are worried about the use of AI but in the future, it might be very involved with most things.

AI is another major factor. The traditional structures were not built with the requirements of this technology in mind; they were built to address a different set of challenges. So, to understand how marketing organizations should set themselves up to optimally leverage generative AI, let us make sense of why they are currently structured the way they are and why that creates friction in leveraging AI.
Businesses were not founded or built with the idea of using AI and the implementation of AI is now a big challenge. Similar to our scenario, businesses have to find the right way to implement AI and change the foundations in which their company was built on.

My original thinking going into this class is that basically in the Medieval times people try to live their everyday lives nicely, in their villages, always outside with the only thing surrounding them is people, nature, and their village, where it seems calm. But, entirely unfree, I imagine that people dont really have a say at all and they are not free, where one wrong move or anything displeasing to the king or guards in off with your head. So on page 207 when the friend says he cannot lend his oxen because it wont do its job otherwise he will be severely punished does help my original thoughts, I wonder if this will change.

'Her face card ate and her walk was good for her first ever show.' Another added, 'She did so good, I wish they gave her bigger wings.'
this is an opinion since this sentence is showing a subjective statement by a viewer of the show, making it a difference from "good" and "bad", good and bad depending on someones own opinion of what they believe is good or bad. Someone might have liked her wings the way they were but this viewer wanted her wings to be bigger (an subjective pinion)

A resource is valuable when it generates valueto the firm or the customer. Rare resources are those that are notabundant.
This assertion by the author goes into the idea of resources and what impact they have on others. The author kept this meaning neutral which then allows the reader to be able to interpret the situation in any way. Having the ability to find and use resources in the way of creating and evolving theories can be very beneficial because it allows others to examine resources and their impacts.

First, AI‐relatedethics, fairness and privacy are probably the most important topicsthat have not had the prominence they deserve in our three fields ofstudy.
As I feel like this statement is subjective and sort of factual, the author dives straight into how the most important topic we should be focusing on is the increase in AI. As I do agree that the importance of AI is needed but I think it can be misleading that it is our only importance to focus on AI and not to focus on other things that are impacting us too. When only focusing on certain aspects it can mislead the reader and cause the readers to also fall off task.

I feel as this statement by the author's claim could have been ambiguous. Although it does in fact state correct information about business models, it can be confusing to understand.

The information that the author uses both well soundness and consistency when explaining the data that they found. With this, the author is able to convey these factual points with there being an unbiased outlook on the matter. The author does not contradict themselves because the authors keep a consistent opinion and value that they maintained.

UTAUT identified four key factors (i.e., performance expectancy,effort expectancy, social influence, and facilitating conditions) andfour moderators (i.e., age, gender, experience, and voluntariness)related to predicting behavioral intentions and use of a technology(Venkatesh et al., 2016). Prominent exemplar papers have usedUTAUT in conjunction with other theories. For example, the workof Gao et al. (2015) integrated an updated version of UTAUT withPMT and PCT to investigate the factors associated with consumer'sintention to adopt wearable technology in healthcare.
This information from the author is high in validity because it is logically structured. The author first starts out with a precise claim and then mentions the evidence behind his claim and then lastly, he reviews his evidence and backs it up with elaboration which explains to the readers of the thought process behind the information.
-
The intersection between marketing, consumer research, andpsychology has been underpinned historically by the shift from usingmostly economic models to explain consumer choice to a focus onpsychological theories.
I believe that the author could have used a stronger argument here by explaining how this intersection has played an impact on marketing. However, the quote only explains the historical background to it. If the author explained how they are connected and how one could use them all together it would make the argument stronger and with precise reasoning it would help immensely.

rancorous
Rancorous: characterized by bitterness or resentment. The word “rancorous” comes from Middle English rancour, Old French rencor, and Late Latin rancor, derived from Latin rancēre, meaning “to stink.” Over time, its meaning shifted from “rottenness” to “bitterness or resentment.” I believe it is used correctly here as the authors are portraying the harsh divisions between Capitalism and Communism.

Generative AI (GenAI) is breaking new ground in emulating human capabilities, and content generation may only be the beginning.In this work, the authors systematize and illustrate promising areas of application of GenAI in marketing. They lay out a concep-tual framework along two dimensions:
The argument is sound and valid however perhaps mildly misleading for the intention of drawing readers in. As it is only the abstract it doesn't cover everything in depth yet implies 'emulating human capabilities' is to some degree misleading. However it is not completely inaccurate, invalid. So although it may be mildly misleading language in the abstract it does however emulate the overall intention of the article.

Some participants argued that moredata is necessary to capture the full range of cultural expressions, while others contended thatthe focus should be on developing thicker development pipelines that incorporate expertiseand context. They discussed the limitations of current models, which often operate on crudemetrics and may not adequately represent the richness of cultural data.

So, are we like Plato’s Cave dwellers — not just in infancy, but throughout our adult lives? It seems we are, at least in one important way: I refer to the unsettling fact that we too are haunted by things we do not know we do not know; and we cannot imagine how drastically those unknowns would alter our lives and our view of the world.
We are all ignorant in some way or form, be it book/street smarts. Lacking communication, knowledge, money management, or other topics. Someone can’t know everything.
-
We understand. It is painful for any of us to accept the revelation that our precious “knowledge” is false, that we have been deluded, and to confront the radical implications: assumptions discarded, insights misguided, principles betrayed, relationships undone, lives altered, and worlds shattered.
Some do not what the pain of "knowledge". Ignorance is bliss"
-
Human beings tend to prefer cognitive comfort, the reinforcement of the familiar, to an encounter with the unknown.
YES! I've been saying that for years! In different wording, but still!
-
Utter ignorance, however, for which the dictionary offers the term ignoration, is yet more profound: The prisoners in Plato’s Cave do not know what they do not know; they do not even know that they do not know. They dwell in ignorance, but cannot recognize it. Ignoration is thus a predicament, a trap — one that is not comprehended by those who are caught in it and dwell there. In a sense, they are not in a place at all: Theirs is rather a placelessness in which one doesn’t even know one is lost.Fortunately, this trap, like a Chinese finger puzzle, has a simple solution: learning. And yet, it is remarkable that an escape occurs — how does one come to learn what one does not know one does not know? After all, the prisoners have no ability to free themselves; more to the point, they have no motivation to escape, since even that desire would presuppose a sense of possibility they lack. Their bondage seems natural to them; it is their form of life; nothing better calls to them. They cannot see their ignorance as ignorance. As the influential Muslim philosopher Al-Ghazzali put it: “Heedlessness is an illness which the afflicted person cannot cure himself.”
It's the biggest trap in human existence that caused millions of lives throughout history. following blindly.

Suppose, however, that you had never heard of the Singer automobile. Despite your familiarity with antique automobile manufacturers and models, you might be surprised to learn of a make or model that had escaped your notice. Or, imagine that you, somewhat less expert, only knew the names of a few sports car manufacturers. In either case, you would have some sense of what acquiring such new knowledge would be like; you could specify its parameters beforehand. You would grasp in a general way what learning about an unfamiliar automaker would entail; and given that possibility, you could identify what it is you do not know — albeit with less precision than in the first case. Such factual ignorance can be delineated in this way because you possess other general, relevant knowledge (in this case, knowledge about cars, their manufacturers, the meaning of “roadster,” and so on). In these ordinary situations, it is the knowledge we possess that serves to awaken and focus our sense of our own ignorance.
"Awaken and focus our sense of our own ignorance," we can specialize in a broad topic. For example, an animator is experienced in 3D animation but not so much in 2D animation.

I believe we all are ignorant, but I would like to see how to describe what I believe in the correct wording.
