Explanation / Answer

Questions are highly contextual to your class. Some of them like "What do you think so far about this class ...." cannot be answered since I don't really what was told in the class.

Also, since there are 10 questions here, I can answer only some of them. But will leave only questions which are very generic or very much dependent on your views.

1. Samantha, as far as I know, is an artificial intelligence sex doll. She is very much fascinated about sex and likes to be touched. I haven't followed much about Samantha in the recent days, so I cannot answer what she decided to do.

2. AIVA (in its full form Artificial Intelligence Virtual Assist) is an artificial intelligence powered music composer. And according to the online news, it is the world's first AI composer to be recognized by SACEM music society.

4. Luddite, in general, is a person who has a fear of losing their job / importance due to the modern technology. And Luddite in relation with AI, is a person who fears losing his/her job due to advancement and empowerment AI brings. An example can be a software tester can be afraid of modern AI driven test frameworks that the frameworks will replace them (although it is not that easy).

5. I carry the same feeling considering the advancement I've seen in the last 2 decades of Internet. Be it the hardware support (Megabit, Gigabit network cards), the network protocols or even the applications which are getting built on top of it.

Having said that, there are actually 2 ways of looking at this. The 1st way already spoken, 2nd contrasting view is that, except the hardware, there isn't really much advancement in terms of the principles of technology. Like the way computers/networks were invented.
