I. Seals help Oceanographer.

1. I think so. As in the article, Dove love science I like
physics and chemistry. She changed her majors like five
times at her college and finally settled to atmospheric chemistry.
This experience gave Dove rich knowledge in science that may help
with her major. For me, I tried vast hobbies like
piano. drawing, skating, dancing, basketball ..... and finally
find my true love: drawing. Through this, I get a better
understanding on who I am.

2. As my body dive deeper into the ocean, about 100 meters
deep, the sensor on my head start working and measuring.
I carefully move around, making sure that it can have a
precise measurement for scientist. I felt proud and excited of
doing this, yet concerned about how the sensors will slow
down my movement. I hope scientist can make them small
enough to reduce its weight to a minimum.

3. I tried cooking when I was seven and find myself
unexpectedly enjoying it. It become my interest how. This
experience told me that it's important to keep a open mind and
embrace new things.

I. AI "Mind Reading" Tool.

1. I think it didn't. Once the technology is advanced
enough, people will use it illegally. Like you can get a
cap that looks normal but actually attachhed to sensors
that can measure your brain activity. There are no secrets
in face of this, leading to serious mental privacy issue.

2. I would develope a anti-brain measurement tool.
Since the brain activity need to be measured by electrical
tools. You could simply develope a warning tool that will
give you an alarm if you're any where near an EEG or
sth. Therefore, people paralyzed can use decodings freely
while others have a warning in hand.

3. First, the encoder was shown with a picture and
will predict brain activity from the image. Then the prediction
is given to the decoder the to output a picture. If
it's the original one, then the machine works well. If not,
the two AI will revise themselves to reconstruct a new
the.

II. Naked Mole-Rats.

1. I think it's fair and is a form of cooperation. Because
the queen mole-rat can only produce the scent that can
prevent others from fighting when she is pregnant. Once she
is not having babies, the other mole-rats will kill her,
and the new queen will emerge. So others have to work, and
the queen have to deliver baby - it's a fair cooperation.

2. For workers, the scent is honey and cool. Its sweet
aroma bring peace to each worker's heart. They don't bother
to fight or mate. Just to smell the sweet scent. For
future queens, it's a deprivation. It slow down there
hormones production in them and keep them from mating.
The scent is something irresistible yet annoying.

3. I would like to investigate how the scent calms
down naked mole-rats, from a chemical perspective,
so to speak. Because this will give us a deeper
understanding of the scent, and even apply to human,
calming, aggressive person.

Read & Respond.
1. Dove, An oceanographer who changed several
majors before finally settling into her final role, used
seals to measure deep polar ocean.
2. A new research develope a decoding AI, that
can visualize what people are thinking through brain
activity measurement is bringing an up-and-coming future
for paralyzed people yet concerns on mental privacy.
3. Scientists found that the queen naked mole-rat
can release a scent that keep the group peace and too coherent,
showing a unique cooperation.
4. The write provide Detailed information.
