  Tina X. Leaves rustle in the wind and a full moon shines brightly in contrast with the dark night sky. Crunch. Crackle. Crunch. In the midst of the peaceful setting, a tall, hooded figure shuffles along a pathway in the woods, taking their time to step on every single leaf. Crackle. Crackle. BOOM. The sky rumbles in anger and a flash of lightning flies across the sky, illuminating the world for a split second. A few moments later, the air is filled with plump raindrops while thunder rumbles in the sky menacingly. Continuing down the dark and foreboding path in the forest, the figure disappears step by step, soon merging completely with the scene until you couldn’t even see his outline.

Everyday people would walk in tired, and leave with joy plastered on their faces. No one only went to the café once. If they just decided to grab one donut, they would always come back for cakes and bagels. Then they would come every morning and it would become a routine. The café was a small cozy room with dazzling fairy lights, so bright they could take over for the sun. There were sage green walls and a checkered tile floor that was always squeaky-clean. It was like no other store in all of Paris. It was owned by the one and only Madame Potsh. She was a bright and chipper lady who always had her hair up in a funky side ponytail. Her platform heels would create the familiar “clickity clackity” sound but no one noticed. They didn’t care. They were here for the food.

Judy G.  I was walking down a small, noisy and crowded street of Paris one winter when the smell of blueberry muffins grabbed me. It led me to a small shop on the corner of 9th street. As soon as my hands pushed open those doors, the smell of the pastries overwhelmed me. The shop was extremely small, it was only composed of two tables and a glass counter, yet it was warm and cozy. I sat down at a table shaped like a star and examined the place. There was a fireplace in a corner and a counter in the middle of the room. There were many pastries in the glass counter like croissants, éclairs, cannelés an, financiers, crepes and many more. I picked up a menu in front of me and scanned the entire page, I signaled the waiter to my table and I ordered a blueberry muffin. I took a moment to enjoy the many scents of the pastries around me, after a few minutes the waiter came to my table holding a paper bag with a kitty on it, I took a bite out of it and the flavour erupted in my mouth.

 By Tina X. Have you ever wondered how Google seems to know what you like? Have you ever noticed how smart the internet has become? People around the world are developing smarter and more dependable AI (artificial intelligence) as we speak. The question is, where is the line? Will people continue to develop AI so much that it’ll be running our businesses for us? Will we become so reliant on it that we forget how to do everyday tasks without it? Here is my theory about why it is likely that robots might take over the world someday. Some people will immediately shake their heads saying ‘Robots or AI taking over the world only ever happens in sci-fi movies. It’s not possible for them to actually take over.’ I understand where those people are coming from but really think about it. Every year, we get new ideas for AI. Every year, we come up with better and smarter versions of it. We’ve begun to develop self-driving cars, which are run by AI. We also already use AI for simple everyday t...
