 * 1) Technology replacement or evolution?
 * 2) Alex Afriyie https://chat.openai.com/share/116e97fe-5f4e-44f5-9ca7-806c26a3b5e4 was very interesting conversation on whether the Internet would be &quot;replaced&quot; or would evolve: &quot;Instead of outright replacement, the more likely scenario is a continued evolution of the internet and related technologies. ... In summary, while the idea of replacing a technology as foundational as the internet is theoretically possible, it is highly improbable due to the immense challenges and complexities involved. Evolution and adaptation are the typical trajectories for information technologies, allowing them to address changing needs and incorporate new innovations while maintaining continuity and compatibility with existing systems.&quot;
 * 3) The elusive &quot;intermediate term&quot;
 * 4) Sam Bartgis Good exchange; trying to identify a word to describe the period between &quot;literacy&quot; and &quot;digitality&quot; or &quot;cybernetics&quot;, ChatGPT suggested: &quot;I understand your preference for a name that aligns more closely with &quot;Orality&quot; and &quot;Digitality&quot;. Given this, how about &quot;Telegraphy&quot;? This term emphasizes the central technological advancement of the era, the telegraph, and follows the pattern of words like &quot;Orality&quot; and &quot;Digitality&quot;.&quot; Kind of a silly word, as it already has a clear meaning. Here is one conversation in which ChatGPT suggested &quot;telecommunicative&quot; as a word: https://chat.openai.com/c/3f2fb360-d183-4c42-b58f-172b01aed1b2 –&gt; this is an especially noteworth conversation...
 * 5) The durability of in-person discussion
 * 6) Reese Dow Interesting discussion reported on the &quot;transitional period&quot;, but mostly reporting on what chatGPT said, rather than what Reese thought. Interersting point: &quot;do you think any of the past forms of media will come back and influence any of the current forms above?&quot; and &quot;do you think the future of media will revert back to similar trends of the past?&quot; and &quot;do you think in the future we will stop talking to one another and just go to texting and calling, even when in person?&quot; The last question yielded a good list of why &quot;in person communication is likely to persist: (1) emotional connection (2) context and nuance (3) trust and relationships (4) collaboration and creativity (5) well-being and mental health
 * 7) Historical thinking on cuneiform
 * 8) Ayden Genther Interresting discussion about cuneiform. Discussion in journal should have noted that the oldest tablet ever discovered (the Kish tablet) is a &quot;a testament to the gradual development of writing and the transition from pictograms and early symbols to the more sophisticated script used for various purposes in ancient Mesopotamia&quot; and tells us that, generally, information technologies evolve.
 * 9) Transhumanism
 * 10) [|Brayden Terry] Just description of conversation in https://chat.openai.com/share/678aecd3-9553-4e1c-93b0-be484c75f7f6; no interpretation. And the conversation does not show evidence of Brayden's thinking. I would have asked &quot;what is meant by transhumanist&quot; age, which suggests thinking about (1) human enhancement (2) biological immortality (3) mind-computer integration and maybe some (4) ethical considerations... https://chat.openai.com/c/62f21865-18c3-4c9e-beb6-6e85d141f7ce
 * 11) Moore's law?
 * 12) [|Deron Howe] Interesting discussion on Moore's law, but how does that extend our class discussion? One possiblity: &quot;while Moore's Law itself is not a direct tool for studying orality and literacy, it can be used as a point of reference for discussions on technological evolution and its societal impacts, drawing parallels and analogies with the historical development of communication methods and cognitive processes&quot; (https://chat.openai.com/c/144036b0-89ef-46f8-911f-0743c69cbe33)
 * 13) chatGPT makes a mistake
 * 14) [|Charlotte McFadden]Interesting chat at https://chat.openai.com/share/12e13934-ea8e-42c9-be99-1e7758695071, which illustrates (no offense) the Garbage in, garbage out capabilities of ChatGPT, in which it described chirographic and typographic as oral ages, when they are not (as noted in https://chat.openai.com/c/c2f727ef-355e-4900-a4d6-89d037522e6c).
 * 15) Interesting discussions, but no interpretation offered in journal. What do you think? Did chatGPT make you think?
 * 16) Elijah Hager https://chat.openai.com/share/13bd8b1c-b12c-4652-8769-7cb70817edac is a pretty good conversation. Would like to see what Elijah thinks...
 * 17) Elijah Stemmer ChatGPT link didn't resolve. Interesting report on converstation, with reference to understanding how the past technologies continue to influence current behavior.
 * 18) Draven Michaletz Link corrected. No chatGPT link provided. Interesting discussion reported on the &quot;transitional period&quot;, but mostly reporting on what chatGPT said, rather than what Draven thought.
 * 19) Tuck Latta ChatGPT link didn't resolve. Reported conversation describes the interaction, but doesn't report on any outcome.
 * 20) Bart Casabona Nice summary of impact of alphabet history. But unable to load chatGPT conversation...
 * 21) [|Jalen Collins] Reported discussion, but link does not resolve. Reported discussing &quot;the recent popularity in posting online, but it also showed in concerns of the rapid spread of misinformation and the vulnerability of having your entire life based around social media&quot;
 * 22) Hunter Kaminski No link to chatGPT conversation. Described (but didn't interpret) results.
 * 23) Connor Bronson Described conversation from https://chat.openai.com/share/502868fa-2f7c-44aa-a6a3-bb2b67c03665, but no interpretation. Not clear what Connor thinks...
 * 24) Declan Maini Interesting question asked in https://chat.openai.com/share/0856416b-ddac-4018-95d0-f7d6d9a0df05, but no interpretation. Pick something out to pursue so we can see what Declan thinks, For example, I'd explore BCIs (brain-computer interfaces)....https://chat.openai.com/c/6f8443d9-d32e-4021-9f23-b5de0e309ea1
