Many people have raised questions about the morality of creating super complex AI computers and forcing them to perform tasks at our will. Many people wonder where we draw the line, and AI becomes self aware (alive) and inherits the rights of sentient beings. Though this point hasn’t been reached yet, many people fear that this point may be near because of the rapid expansion of our technological advancement. The thought has also been brought up in philosophical circles that when sentient AI is created they will be used as slaves such as the African Americans of the pre-Civil War south. (Wikipedia)

Overall, AI is a crucial part of our lives, whether is protecting our country or helping in us organizing our cell phones. The complexity and applicable situations grow everyday as more powerful programs are created. It won’t be long before a computer will become sentient and AI will be taken to the next level.

In the two essays previously discussed the authors have different opinions about the symbolism in and about the novel. While Schorer talks more about the symbolism of the society as compared to modern day communism with Winston symbolizing the average man, Freedman shows Winston’s uniqueness in that he is separate from society because of the values and emotions he holds of a lost generation. Schorer also prefers to focus more on the overall plot of the novel and the different roles of people in the novel, where as Freeman discusses the detailed characteristics that make Winston human. These two essays also do however share similarities in the way they refer to Winston. Both authors heavily praise Winston character and talk about the truths of the novel such as the evils of government and the evil potential of to much power.

As our technology continues to advance in complexity Artificial Intelligence, or AI, has become more crucial to modern society. The many facets of AI can be seen in 1984 in the way the telescreens can spy on people and how the workout instructor talks to him when he slacks off doing his exercises. AI is a branch of computer science dedicated to the production of an automated computer system that can function to be self sufficient for short periods of time and be able to perform set tasks. The overall goal of AI is to create a sentient being that can function fully as a human. There have been many advancements in the fields of AI that are used in everyday life that we would be lost without.

Currently, the closest we have come to sentient AI is seen in most video games. The most notable of these are the master chess computer systems which can use logic to predict the moves of opponents and analyze the best possible way to win. Students from Stanford explain about chess machines on their website saying “You can buy machines that can play master level chess for a few hundred dollars….To beat a world champion by brute force and known reliable heuristics requires being able to look at 200 million positions per second”. Simpler versions can be seen in most modern console video games where AI “boss” computer sprites are programmed with a series of reactions in counter the players in thousands of combinations. Even yet more simple AI can be seen in cell phones in which computer chips can be programmed to help users have the most pleasant experience using the device by organizing and prioritizing.

On the cutting edge front of modern AI is the air force. Their computerized defense systems are among the most advanced in the world. These planes can be programmed to do maneuvers that would normally put g forces on pilots that would knock them unconscious which is why computers must fly the planes instead of a person. John Rhea talks about the advancements of unmanned aircraft and similar technologies are taking the head of the field saying “the military services are beginning to implement AI methods in such new generations of weapons platforms as unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and autonomous submersibles to perform unmanned surveillance in shallow waters.” They are also very efficient because they can protect human lives in dangerous situations. These high tech computers are designed to adapt to their enemy in order to predict the moves of other enemy pilots. (MAE)

InIn many dystopic
In 1984 O’Brien controls the people by controlling society through fear and brainwashing them. For those who do not conform he uses torture to break their spirit and make them believe the lies they confess. O’Brien’s motives are to maintain omnipotence of the party, which is best shown when he says “There will be no loyalty, except loyalty towards the Party. There will be no love, except the love of Big Brother. There will be no laughter, except the laugh of triumph over a defeated enemy.” (pg 280) O’Brien shows that that he knows that the attitude required to live in this society goes against human nature, and even knowing this he forces his society to endure. This is cynicism in its quintessence. He knows how wrong what he’s doing is, yet, he continues to torture the human spirit of his society. O’Brien further shows that power has corrupted him when Winston asks O’Brien “They’ve got you to!” and O’Brien responds “They got me a long time ago” (pg238). This shows that even though O’Brian has always known the evils of the party and that what he was doing was wrong, and yet he still has remained torturing people.
In Brave New World Mustapha Mond, as a world controller, controls the society by taking away all negative emotions and by not containing the instinct of sex. In doing this he destroys the people’s ability to cope with adversity. He gives them happiness by repressing the truth that they aren’t free and only gives them pleasure. He wants to create this society because he believes that humans are a plague to each other in their instinctual state so he refines them so that under adversity that they will collapse and be unable to “plague” each other. He also alleviates negative emotions by using soma to keep people dependent on the government and suppress any negative emotions and emotional anguish. In doing these things, he essentially destroys all that makes people human and destroys people’s ability adapt to adversity which makes them ever more dependent on their government and society. The addiction to soma is clearly seen in phrases that multiple characters recite such as “one cubic centimeter cures ten gloomy sentiments” (pg89) and “a gramme is better than a damn” (pg89). They repeat these phrases because they are conditioned to use soma when any adversity comes their way. Mustapha Mond even admits this in saying “And if anything should go wrong, there's soma. Which you go and chuck out of the window in the name of liberty, Mr. Savage. Liberty!” (pg220)

In In the essay
In the second essay titled “Winston Smith: The Last Humanist” W. H. Freeman discusses how Winston Smith's sensibility can be seen as representing a constellation of special intellectual, aesthetic, and literary values. In regards to 1984 Freeman talks about Winston’s rationalism and objectivity. Winston is loyal to values of earlier generations, thereby preserving the culture unintentionally by holding his memories. Specifically Freeman discusses how this came about when he says “Winston is loyal to the values of an earlier generation—like his mother, who had assumed that "what mattered were individual relationships, and a completely helpless gesture, an embrace, a tear, a word spoken to a dying man, could have value in itself”. In the book the fact that Winston seeks freedom and shows his human side, thereby demonstrating exactly what Freedman means when he talks about Winston seeking to access his human side through emotions and memories of a forgotten society. Winston’s resistance to the government is shown in his use of old speak and how he chooses to usually not use new words created by the government to brainwash culture and is demonstrated as such in the quote “Winston Smith holds fast both to the value of Oldspeak and to the ultimate rationale of the early humanist position—the achievement of individual freedom” Freeman argues that Orwell had humanist intentions because of the fact that Winston’s unique deepness of soul gives him a third dimension that no other character in the novel has. Ultimately Freedman shows that Winston is a humanist because of the fact that in the novel he symbolizes the guardian of the human spirit and soul.
In the two essays previously discussed the authors have different opinions about the symbolism in and about the novel. While Schorer talks more about the symbolism of the society as compared to modern day communism with Winston symbolizing the average man, Freedman shows Winston’s uniqueness in that he is separate from society because of the values and emotions he holds of a lost generation. Schorer also prefers to focus more on the overall plot of the novel and the different roles of people in the novel, where as Freeman discusses the detailed characteristics that make Winston human. These two essays also do however share similarities in the way they refer to Winston. Both authors heavily praise Winston character and talk about the truths of the novel such as the evils of government and the evil potential of to much power.

In the essay “An Indignant and Prophetic Novel” published in the June 12 1949 edition of The New York Times Book Review Mark Schorer writes about how the novel 1989 by George Orwell makes the American society desire freedom and loath Tyranny. In the article Schorer talks about the correlations between modern society and the society from 1984 and how it is not just satirical vision of society in the future but is really a glum prediction of what could be. This is best demonstrated when Schorer say “Nineteen Eighty-Four appears at first glance to fall into that long-established tradition of satirical fiction…..Yet before one has finished reading the nearly bemused first page, it is evident that this is fiction of another order, and presently one makes the distinctly unpleasant discovery that it is not to be satire at all.” He talks about the horrors of totalitarianism, an extreme form of communism in which the government has total control over everything in society and in life, when he says “it was an expression of Mr. Orwell's moral and intellectual indignation before the concept of totalitarianism as localized in Russia”. He does this using sensory images to show the parallels between communism and totalitarianism because in actuality totalitarianism is an extreme form of communism and could have possibly become part of the Soviet government at the time. The author further describes the evil of society by using thought crimes as an example of the evils of this government by showing how through all of the corrupt power that the government still must destroy anyone who is different. Both however authors talk about how the book itself is a work of linguistic masterpiece in the way Orwell gets his messages out.
