The document discusses how social media may be negatively impacting the mental health and body image of youth. It notes that teens who use social media for more than two hours per day report poorer mental health. Additionally, social media teaches unrealistic body images that make teens feel isolated. 53% of American girls are unhappy with their bodies by age 17. The document also argues that children are getting smartphones too early and focusing more on social media than their education. This may be teaching youth new standards of living through screens rather than real-world experiences.

Are Social Media Websites Harmful To The Youth?Evan Atkinson
This study was done to determine if social media websites negatively affect the youth of America. Many young people in the United States have accounts on social media websites such as Facebook, Twitter, and MySpace and studies have shown that these websites can have negative affects. With so many young people using these social media sites, studies on the negative affects should surely be done. After conducting a survey, and analyzing many secondary academic resources I determined that in fact the youth could be negatively affected by these social media websites. They are negatively affected in many different ways such as them being addictive, and distracting in an academic environment, but also can affect the youth negatively in several other ways. After coming to these conclusions, I am certain that more studies need to be done on this issue, so we can reverse some of the negative aspects of social media websites, and find a way to be able to use them in the best possible way.

ABSTRACT
Cyber bullying, digital identity, impact of digital footprints, and use of inappropriate social media are topics
that are gaining attention in K-12 schools. As more schools and school districts are implementing 1-1 and
“bring your own technology” initiatives, attention to these topics is becoming increasingly important. A
total of 593 middle school students were surveyed about digital footprints and concerns about social media.
The results show that 17% started using social media at age nine or yo.

The author of this article is on the bad sides of social media. Parents, politicians and the society at large have neglected their role and left it to the children to lead and guide themselves. Too much violence, sex and vulgar language is cropping to the current generation an alarming rate. This effect has been contributed by the use of movies, television shows and recordings beyond child's age. Though the government appears ready to intervene but it cannot do all the job without the help of parents. Parents should therefore be cautious on what their children watch on social media.

The author of this article expresses his fear on the extent to which millions of people expose their data and confidential information to all social sites. The continues to lament that this trend eventually exposes ones need to communicate face to face since it seem to be much more cheaper than travelling from places to places. These content is used to other business firms to promote their businesses. But the error was Zuckerberg's design techniques will take time to be corrected when many users would have exposed more of their confidential information.

The author of this articles expresses his great concern on the release of one of the most influential movies. This movie has a negative effect to most people especially to under aged children. They can easily develop a negative character towards other people. The ultraviolent video game by the name “Grand Theft Auto V” had grossed almost more than $1 billion in its first release. This media type of movie has received much of comments most being negatives to its release. The author is very much categorical on the bad influence it might affect the current generation.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.
