Technology: Here and Afar

Technology is big in most places. It is ever-evolving in most places. But issues with technology are different mattering what city, state, or country you live in. Issues can be as big as changing the way of life of an entire country, or as small as changing a portion of a town. No matter how big or small an issue with technology is, it's importance is not lessened in the slightest.

I was born in New Hampshire. I have always resided in New Hampshire. So whatever technological advancement happens in New Hampshire, it is important to me. Recently, the town of Portsmouth added drones to it's police force. According to Govtech, the drones will be used to identify people from 200 feet above. They will also be used to create a vertical view of a crime scene.

This is an important technological advancement, especially in the world of law enforcement, because of the higher viewpoint a drone has. You can move the drone 200 feet in the air and see an entire crime scene, instead of having to look at the crime scene fragmented at ground level. As this tech keeps advancing it will be interesting to see all the perspectives that can be given to a crime scene or building in question.

As well as being a New Hampshire resident, I am also a U.S. citizen. The U.S. works with other countries. They also have some countries that they should work with. According to Fu Ying of the South China Morning Post, America and China should work together to help make A.I. better for our future. After all, the U.S. and China are the two world leaders when it comes to A.I.. This will most likely not happen, at least not in the near future, due to tension between the U.S. and China.

I agree with Fu Ying's opinion about this topic. If the leaders of A.I. worked together in the future, then how could A.I. go wrong in the future. It is unfortunate that the U.S. have tension on more political matters, but that shouldn't affect technological matters. A.I. has issues, and they will be worked out in the future, but they will be worked out much faster if both China and the U.S. were able to work together to create foolproof A.I..
