Week 5 Blog Post

Hi everyone :) This week we used ChatGbt to curate more Twitter posts on our desired research. Personally, I enjoy using AI, as It helps my thought process flow. Also, as someone who sucks at using advanced dialect and sounding more professional, this also helps my writing sound more professional. With just a simple "Tell me a true story about canines and their ability to help with things like depression and anxiety", I was able to generate a whole fascinating story about Buddy, a golden retriever therapy dog, that made a profound impact on the mental health of patients at a children's hospital. After reading this story I was able to rewrite the ideas in my own words. Using ChatGbt helped me grasp these ideas as well, as I can also put things like, "explain this to me in simple terms", or "explain this using more specific details".

This week I followed several more accounts focusing on research with canines. @dani_deming and @MattD_Hyde are two accounts I also found engaging that I followed. I enjoyed both of their pages because they are very active and have tons of other research on their page other than their own. I also like how engaging both pages are very engaged with their followers and communicate back and fourth, answering any questions efficently and effectively. My classmates also are very active and engaginf, it makes me excited to get to tuesday to read everyones posts. One post that stood out to me this week was @shawnllee's post about the death of a woman named Taylor Mitchell In 2009. Taylor was attacked by two coyotes in which she bleed to death. This article striked me and was very disheartening as I live in an area with lots of coyotes. I also commented this on shawn's post, but It's scary to think about as my sisters are alwasy playing outside and we constantly have to warn them to be on the look out. Overall, this week was very engaging and I am excited to keep furthering my research.
