Do Choose the proper language for the situation The first thing that is an important part of delivering any speech is the language that one chooses to use. On page 164 the book says that this does not just mean ensuring that the grammar is correct but choosing the words, phrases, and oratory devices best suited to the ideas being conveyed. The proper implementation of specific or concrete words can change a speech from an unfocused generalization to an informative and focused presentation. One example of such specificity in helping clarify a speech is when discussing how prevalent adult ADHD is instead of merely saying the statistic (2.5%) to actually explained how many people that would be worldwide. This would help by giving the listener some context of the sheer number of people that I was discussing rather than a vague idea based on an unrelatable percentage. While giving specifics is also important in making the audience properly understand the presentation, one must also ensure that one uses the proper language to convey an idea. For example, when giving a fact-heavy speech it is better to use neutral words and attempt to minimize metaphors and other flowery language as that will detract from the objective tone necessary in delivering an informative speech.

How I related child development to my audience was much more effective in my informative speech than my demonstration speech. In my demonstration speech, not everyone raised their hand when I asked my question. In my informative speech, I related it to my audience by saying everyone has went through child development. I felt more confident in my informative speech because I practiced many times in front of my family and friends.

Tesla is taking a different approach while designing their self-driving cars. Tesla has introduced the computer vision-based vehicle detection system instead of using the traditional radar. The new Tesla cars contain eight surround cameras which are capable to see 360 degrees around the car. The main forward camera covers 150m of distance. These autonomous cars can see any object within 250 meters of it’s range. Tesla autonomous cars have the ultrasonic sensors and a forward-facing radar which are very advanced technology and they help the car to see through heavy rain and fog. This technology will help prevent road accidents during extreme weathers. Another impressive addition of the new Tesla cars is the neural net for visibility.
