Peer 1: I have chosen to discuss the popular culture example of the movie "The Matrix". This movie was released in 1999 and is a science fiction action film directed by the Wachowskis. The movie is set in a dystopian future where humanity is unknowingly trapped in a simulated reality known as the Matrix. The movie "The Matrix" portrays technology in a complex and ambiguous way. On the one hand, the movie shows how technology can be used for good. For example, the protagonist Neo uses technology to learn kung fu and to fight against the machines that control the Matrix. On the other hand, the movie also shows how technology can be used for evil. For example, the machines use technology to enslave humanity and to control their thoughts. The movie "The Matrix" raises important questions about the role of technology in our society. The movie asks us to consider whether technology is a force for good or evil. The movie also asks us to consider how we can use technology to liberate ourselves from the control of others.
The movie "The Matrix" conveys a social message about the dangers of technology. The movie shows how technology can be used to control people's minds, to create false realities, and to enslave humanity. The movie also shows how technology can be used to create new forms of violence and oppression.
The movie "The Matrix" is a thought-provoking film that explores the potential dangers of technology. The movie raises important questions about the role of technology in our society. The movie asks us to consider how we can use technology to improve our lives without sacrificing our freedom and autonomy.
Peer 2: Roblox allows a person to create their own immersive experience and lets them reimagine the way people create, play, explore, learn, and connect with others by using the tools and technology supplied by the game. This game has allowed my son to engage in problem solving and use his imagination to build and create worlds. Roblox can be played on a smartphone, tablet, computer, and Xbox. Understand I am not into gaming, I don't understand gaming, and I limit the amount of time that I allow my son to game, but I like how the game challenges his creativity and makes him develop solutions to problems.
