The forms of technology

 Kynlee Edwards 




            Hello, I am currently watching the show Upload. Within the first few minutes of the show, it shows  different uses of technology. The first example they showed was an older woman sitting on the subway. She taps the side of her hand and motions her hands away form each other, then a screen shows up in between her hands and she is watching a movie. It is like having a tablet with you at all times. The purpose of the show is to reveal that there is a bigger use of technology that is in play they just dont want you to know yet. They use the same everyday things as we do but with a twist. For example, much like a Tesla, the cars they use talk to them and drive for them. Basically like a video game, they just get in and tell it where to go. Bikes also drive themselves, they will take a person wherever they want to go then the person just hops off and the bike goes back to where it was originally. 


As I continued to watch the show the main form of technology is called upload. It is a way of living your life in a virtual reality. This is also a for of dominant. Many people want to try upload and live their lives virtually and  do crazy things but they dont have the money for it. So many people have to get free trials and test out the waters. 50 million people are using upload. Everything around them is technology. Groceries store cashiers are machines who talk to them. Anything that is technology talks about and persuades people to get upload. So far as I have watched this show, it has shown a few elements of foreshadowing that persuade me to think that this upload isn’t what it is made up to be. I am very excited to keep watching and to keep you updated!

Infinitive rules

 Kynlee Edwards  I have been watching the show Upload for a while now. I am taking it very slowly so I can take these blogs with very descriptive detail. In this blog I will be telling you about the technology and how it relates to real world laws with certain technologies. First of all, upload is all about AI innovation. They have machines that move and talk for humans, basically the humans put all trust into these objects. There are a few laws in the show that are similar to those in the real world. First being security systems. In the show there are security systems that are outside of any major vehicle or building. These security systems talk to people which is similar to those compared to ring which notifies the homeowner through a device. This is similar,  but the system talks live with whoever is at the door or outside of any building. Another law that they have in the show is the the cars in the show have to be able to do all the work at all times. If you mess wit...

The unfailing technology

      The show upload is a crazy mess with different types of technology that would be so fascinating to have in real life. Following my last blog post I told you guys about all the different types of technology that were being portrayed in the world of their type of living. I am a lot further into the show and can give you more insight on what each type of technology is like.       The different types of technology are very similar to ones we use to today. For example, in this show each person has their own car. Just as any human would today.  These cards though, completely drive themselves. Very similar to a Tesla in todays age with the pilot driving and parking on its own. But these cars have no steering services available at all. The car talks back and forth with the driver and get them places, which is also very closely related to what we have today called Siri. The car has a command and then wishes that command to the driver. Nathan, is...
