Presentation 1: How 5G will change so much more than your phone – Serigo Carillo

• 5G will be 100x faster than our 4G phones, but what does that actually mean because 4G relates information almost instantly.

Presentation 2: Amazon bets on empathetic Alexa – Shatabdi Katha

• One of the concerns that I share is that Alexa records your conversations even when she isn’t suppose to be activated. It is refreshing to know that these conversations can be deleted.

Presentation 1– Sergio Carillo – 5G

• for the medical revolution, I have already been to a conference that people are creating databases which was spoke about. However, I guess 5G will make it more proficient in the updating patient records.
• Also what are negative aspects of this, health wise? Eg. Radiation

Presentation 2– Shatabdi Katha – Amazon bets on empathetic Alexa

• Even though our conversation can be deleted, isn’t it already stored by other databases and can be used against your will?

5G Wireless technology- Well Presented. Lots of useful information.

Amazon Alexa- Good Presentation. Nice slide background.

A Very Informative presentation about 5G and how it will change the future.  I liked how Sergio presented about each field 5G will affect like the medical field, sports, surveillance etc. Powerpoint was nice and organized.

First Presentation (Sergio)

• The amount of information along with the pictures on each slide can bring attention to anyone and show great collection of information done.

Second Presentation (Shatabdi)

• Tons of very informative information that show great points to show that Alexa is growing as an AI.

It was interesting how 5G is going to be used more in the medical industry.  How far is 5G implemented in the medical and patients industry as of now?

I’ve seen Alexa being used in many homes now. Do you think that people rely on devices similar to Alexa?

Sergio Carrillo Presentation:

• The 5G technology is a good thing but behind it comes many things that might not be good. For example, the car industry is going to change but it is not as secure as people think. Signal degrades and sometimes it gets lost. So, the car connected to this technology could crash due to this vulnerability.

Shatabdi Katha presentation:

• I’m afraid of what the future holds for people if technology keeps growing as it is. Because of phones we no longer talk to people in front of us. Now, with Alexa, people might not even talk with other people.

“How 5G Will Change So Much More Than Your Phone” – WSJ

How much does 5G improve upon 4G? The article does not mention any hard numbers or evidence and most of the article is speculation.

“Amazon Bets on an Empathetic Alexa” – NYT

Do you think smart speakers are going to far or have they not gone far enough with how much they can do?

Presentation 1

HI Sergio, I think the presentation was informative especially since it is pointing towards the future and the way life will rely on technology. However, there was a statement that struck me with the presentation.

• You mentioned that where cell towers were absent, cars will be able to receive signals from other cars. So my questions is if there is an absence of towers, how are the other cars receiving their signals as well in order to transmit?

Presentation 2

Hi Shatabdi, thank you for enlightening us about Alexa and the ways in which it can be used. Your presentation was clear and straight to the point.

Thank You.
