Computing Innovations

Computing innovations are innovations that includes a program as an integral part of its function. A program can be referred to as a software like Python or Java. A computing innovation can either be physical, like self-driving cars, or nonphysical, like a picture editing software. The purpose of computing innovations is to solve problems through creative expression. From this, it provides developers with an improved ability to develop a specific computing innovation.


Computing innovations has both pros and cons. The pros of computing innovations are that it can create advances in computing and has generated and increased creativity in other fields. These other fields include engineering, communications, and arts. The negatives of computing innovations is that it can unleash negative consequences for children, like shortened attention spans, lack of connection to nature, bullying, and fake news. Computing innovations shouldn't be used because of these factors, it can ruin children's, and maybe even adults, creativity and mind.


Machine learning and data mining have enabled innovation in medicine, business, and science. Rapid sharing of a program or running a program with a huge number of users results in significant impacts beyond the intended purpose or control of the programmer.
