Cluster of My Controversy

This post is a brief overview of the controversy over potential artificial intelligence threats to humanity.
'My Cluster' Tyler Gray 9/12/15
My cluster consists of the various things that make up my controversy.  Although it is a bit of a one sided 'argument' that mostly consists of open letters to the public and comments within interviews, the opinions of those who take either side are becoming clear, and are very briefly summarized within my cluster. The various figureheads of the debate are also listed with their various ways of reaching the public with their opinion.


After reading two posts from my classmates Thomas Cortez and  Breanna Featherston
I found that my post is not quite as comprehensive as some of my classmates, but much of this is not due to laziness, but due to the nature and lopsidedness to the controversy. Also I feel that my cluster succeeds in its brevity, which is important to a visual tool, for when it becomes unorganized and jumbled it becomes less effective than merely writing things out.  I believe that a medium has to be reached for a visual to be most effective, where mine leans toward one end and my classmates posts leaned towards the other.

    You used a very different form of cluster making than I did. At first It was a little confusing to look at because I wasn't sure where it started or if it had a start. Once I got past that it made sense though. I find your cluster interesting especially how you mapped certain things across to other sections. As you say your controversy is sort of one sided and I think the way you created your cluster it shows that while still pointing out that there are sides by clearly separating the two as well as picking very strong arguments for the side that lacks in numbers.

    I agree with Clayton's comment that I didn't quite know where the organization started or ended, but I don't think that is your fault. As long as it makes sense to you and helps you in the formation of your QRG, that's all that matters! I would suggest remembering the values/ideology of both sides of your controversy when composing your QRG.
