This week’s assignment was to just plan out our final project and document progress on it. I had a lot of work piled up for this week and I wasn’t able to start putting the video together, but I’ve done a good amount of brainstorming about the idea I would like to delve into.

For my final project, I would like to deviate away from my course character idea and make a video essay. I’ve always been an enjoyer of video essays on a variety of topics from sports to video games. Planning out a script and analyzing the pros and cons of AI appeals to me as something I would make myself if I ran a YouTube channel.

I’m envisioning a 5-8 minute video with a variety of graphics on screen, different backtracks based on the topic at hand, as well as segments of me talking on camera to bring a more human aspect into the project. I still need to think more about which aspects of the analysis I would like to hone in on, but I’m most likely going to talk a lot about how AI is too powerful in the scope of college assignments, ranging from Daily Creates and other DS106 assignments, as well as some insight into the problems of AI in Computer Science courses as well.
