东汉时有一个少年名叫陈蕃，自命不凡，一心只想干大事，自己住的屋子又乱又脏，却从来不收拾。他父亲的朋友薛勤见状批评他："你怎么不打扫一下房间，客人来了看到这么脏乱多不好啊” 陈蕃回答："我是做大事的人，怎么能做这个呢?“薛勤当即反问："你连一间屋子都收拾不好，你能做出什么大事呢?"陈蕃顿时不知道如何回答了。

Tanto los dispositivos tecnológicos que usamos día a día, como los algoritmos de Aprendizaje Automático (ML) que nos recomiendan qué películas ver, qué hotel elegir, qué comida comprar, están disponibles para nosotros gracias a una cadena de suministro, que involucra la extracción de recursos naturales, la mano de obra en diferentes partes de esta cadena y la posterior comercialización. Siendo el objetivo final  maximizar las ganancias de los inversionistas sin importar las consideraciones éticas y ambientales que surgen al  distribuir y aplicar estos algoritmos a campos como la educación, la salud, el sistema judicial, la vigilancia civil, entre otros. 
El término Inteligencia Artificial (IA) alude a un conjunto de algóritmos capaces de imitar la inteligencia humana a diferentes niveles. La autora propone ir más alla de la abstracción que el termino IA evoca y analizarlo con los pies en la tierra, preguntándos: ¿es realmente la IA inteligente o artificial?

はい、こんにちは。今回はポッドキャストのシーズン3の2回目です。先週、クレジットカードのゴールドカードが届きました。日本ではフリーランスは社会的に信用が低いですが、続けていればクレジットスコアは上がっていくんですね。みなさんのおかげです。これからも頑張ります。

Hello. This is episode 2 of Season 3 of my podcast. I received my gold credit card last week. In Japan, the social standing of freelancers is generally low, but I’ve noticed that if you keep at it, your credit score will go up. It’s all thanks to you, my students and listeners. Rest assured, I’m going to keep providing content for you.

前回はパソコンを買い替える話をしました。今日、新しいパソコンを注文しました。私が注文したのはM1チップのMacBook Airです。M1モデルを選んだ理由は2つあります。一つ目の理由はノッチです。M2モデルには画面にノッチがついています。ノッチとはカメラの周りの黒い部分のことです。私はよくメニューバーの真ん中を使うので、ノッチが邪魔に感じました。二つ目の理由は、今年の3月にM3モデルが発売するという噂があったからです。M3モデルが発売したら、M1モデルはなくなってしまうかもしれません。また3月に私が今使っている2017年製のMacBookのサポートが終了します。サポートが終了したら、売る時の値段が安くなってしまうかもしれません。

Last time I talked about replacing my computer. Today I actually ordered a new computer. I ordered the MacBook Air with the M1 chip. I chose the M1 model for two reasons. The first reason is the notch. The notch is the black area around the camera. I often use the middle of the menu bar, so I found the notch annoying. The second reason is that there was a rumour that the M3 model would be released in March of this year. If the M3 model is released, the M1 model may disappear. In addition, support for my current 2017 MacBook is due to end in March. Once this happens, the resale value might fall.

しかし、M1モデルは2020年発売なので、スペックが充分かどうか不安でした。そこでパソコンに詳しい生徒さんたちからアドバイスをもらって、ユニファイドメモリを16GBにアップグレードしました。私は今大学生なので学割が使えるし、キャンペーンのギフトカードがもらえたので、合計で41800円安くなりました。今使っている2017年製のMacBookの下取りを合わせると、あと1万円ぐらい安くなるかもしれません。下取りとは、新しい物を買うときに、同時に古い物を同じ店に売って、割引を受けることです。とてもいい買い物でした。届くのが楽しみです。

Welcome back to another episode of Streetwise English podcast. My name is Carl. Today I want to talk about breaking the ice. So breaking the ice means meeting someone new that you don't know for the first time. So when you go to a party or you go to a new workplace or a new school, you're always going to have the occasion where you need to meet people for the very first time.


And sometimes this can be awkward and you can feel embarrassed about talking to someone if you don't know them and they don't know you and you're not friends yet. So I just wanted to talk really briefly about some advice that I have for you to meet people for the first time in any environment. And this is especially true if you are not a native speaker of their language.


So the first tip I have is to simply smile. Make your face look friendly and welcoming and give eye contact to the person that you want to talk to. It sounds really simple and obvious, but if you missed this step um, you know, this is a very important step and this is half the battle. So make sure that you look approachable yourself and you smile And you might even make a slight hand gesture, like, uh, a mini wave of some sort.  And the next thing is to simply say hello.


You don't have to come up with any kind of clever saying or pick up line or joke just simply saying hello. And you can see if the other person is interested in having a conversation with you.


And another tip is that you can be observant of what the person looks like or what clothes they're wearing and use that as a clue um, to tell you about who they are. For example, if the person is wearing very nice running shoes you kind of have the idea that this person likes to run or this person may be a runner or if you notice that the person has, um, cauliflower ears, you know, scarred ears from wrestling OK, this guy is probably a fighter.
