critque

Due: 11:59 PM EST Saturday 5 July 2014 

The critique does have a negative connotation, but it doesn’t have to be a strictly negative piece. After reading through the readings about Artificial 

Intelligence and how to write critiques, choose one of the required readings (listed below) to write your critique. The critique will be two to three 

pages in length and employ APA format. 

Follow these guidelines to write your critique: 

 The critique should be two to three pages in length.

Choose one of the following articles: 

o “What did the Watson Computer do?” 

o “Computer Wins on Jeopardy, Trivial, It’s Not” 

o “The AI Revolution is on” 

o “The Man who Would Teach Machines to Think” 

o “Mind in the Machine” 

 Include an APA title page 

 Include APA in-text citations wherever you reference the text. 

 Include a reference page in APA format. 

 Be objective and avoid using “I”, “you”, and “we”. 

Students: Be sure to read the criteria, by which your paper/project will be evaluated, before you write, and again after you write.
