Fun Choices in Tech and Robotics

Front

Would you rather build a robot that can perfectly land every trick in a skateboarding competition, or a robot that can clean your room, make your bed, and do your laundry, but sometimes misses a spot? 🤖

Back

Show a GIF of a robot doing an epic, slow-motion skateboard trick, followed by a comical, glitchy GIF of a robot attempting to make a bed and failing.

Front

Would you rather have a personal AI assistant that can only write perfect essays for your history class, or one that can help you with any subject but sometimes makes mistakes?

Back

A blank word document fills up instantly with a flawless essay. Then, a student's face with a 'thinking' emoji appears, as the AI's 'help' turns out to be a jumbled mess of text.

Front

Would you rather have a computer that has an amazing internet connection for gaming but is totally unsecure and at risk of getting hacked, or a secure computer with a slow internet connection? 🎮

Back

A character in a video game pulls off a perfect combo with a huge 'ding!' and '100%,' followed by the screen glitching out with a skull icon. Then, a long, slow-moving progress bar that says 'LOADING...' appears.

Front

Would you rather have a perfectly sorted playlist of 1,000 songs that takes an hour to create, or a shuffled playlist of 10,000 songs that takes a second to create?

Back

Album covers neatly stack up in a perfect, organized line. Then, in a flash, a massive pile of jumbled, spinning album covers appears.

Front

Would you rather have a bug in your code that crashes your program every time you open it, or a bug that appears randomly once every 100 times you run the program and causes a small, hard-to-find error?

Back

A huge, pixelated 'BUG!' icon flies onto the screen and explodes into a full-screen 'CRITICAL ERROR' message. Then, a tiny, almost invisible bug icon scurries across the screen.

Front

Would you rather code an app using a very strict programming language where a single missing semicolon stops the program, or a flexible language where you can write messy code that might sometimes work and sometimes not?

Back

A line of code with a red, flashing 'X' over a missing semicolon, then a tangled, messy ball of digital yarn unraveling across the screen.

Front

Would you rather create a new social media app that only works on iPhones but gets a million users, or an app that works on every phone but only gets 10,000 users? 📱

Back

A line of iPhones with a huge, flashy '1,000,000' number appearing above them. Then, a variety of different phone icons (Androids, etc.) with a much smaller '10,000' number.
