AI : A threat to human power? -- Isaac Asimov and his 'The Feeling of Power'

Image
  The Feeling of Power , which was published in 1958 . is set in the distant future ,where the people have already forgotten all their basic skills such as calculations and rudimentary skills including counting. It is implied that learning of coding has become too prominent and vital with the dominance of AI and computers in each and every field, and so such basic skills are not considered essential. Thus, this shows the defections caused in other fields, while the particular field of AI is perpetually given attention. While contemplating the expediting potential of AI, it is crucial to give a thought about the way it ruins the independence of men. As the title indicates The Feeling of Power is sensed by a man only when he is independent, and relies on nothing but himself. This idea of the author is vividly indicated by the end which goes like “ Nine times seven, thought Shuman with deep satisfaction, is sixty-three, and I don't need a computer to tell me so. The computer is in my ...

CLASSICAL DANCE FORMS OF INDIA - Kathakali and Kuchipudi

Image
 Kathakali   Kathakali is considered to be the most important classical dance form of the Indian state of Kerala, known for its richness in cultural heritage. The term Kathakali is derived from katha ( Malayalam : കഥ, from Sanskrit ) which means "story or a conversation, or a traditional tale", and kaḷi ( Malayalam : കളി ) which means "performance" or "play". The dance symbolises the eternal fight between good and evil. Of all classical Indian dances, Kathakali has the most elaborate costuming consisting of head dresses, face masks and vividly painted faces. It typically takes several evening hours to prepare a Kathakali troupe to get ready for a play. Costumes have made Kathakali 's popularity extend beyond adults, with children absorbed by the colors, makeup, lights and sounds of the performances. Several ancient Sanskrit texts such as Natya Shastra and Hastha Lakshanadeepika discuss hand gestures or mudras. Kathakali follows the Hastha Lak...

WHAT'S SHADOW??

Image
  WHAT'S SHADOW ?? - By S.R.Dhivya Have you gu ys ever thought about it?  It's not just about your shadow, it's about the shadow of everyone, the shadow in general.  Is it Satan trying to keep track of the mortals, because as soon as the light grows, it becomes bigger and bigger, showing his supremacy in the lights too? Or, is it Narcissus who died because of his own reflection, trying to have a rebirth in the form of a reflection, a silhouette reflection?  Or, is it a coward finding protection behind our backs, hiding themselves when it's dark?  Or, is it our own child, following us anywhere and everywhere, but gets lost when it's dark?  Or, is it our own sins, which easily get exposed when there comes a light upon us? Or, is it just the sign of mortals who strive to be in light? The Immortals don't have it, since they already have it in themselves. If so, will the shadow leave, if we possess our own lights? No, it won't, right? But they leave in darkness....
