Academic Insight โ Movie & Academia #2 ๐ฅโจ
The next stop in our journey: Minority Report (2002).
What if you could be arrested for a crime you havenโt committed yet? ๐จ
Spielbergโs futuristic thriller explores predictive policing, biometric surveillance, and gesture-based tech long before they entered real-life debates.
In this condensed script + breakdown, we look at:
๐ How predictive modeling actually works in data science
๐ The reality behind biometric scanning & targeted ads
โ Gesture-based interfaces from MIT to todayโs AR/VR
โ๏ธ The ethics of punishing future crimes
โก๏ธ Tell me in the comments: Do you think predictive policing could ever be fair?

๐ New Series Coming Soon! ๐ฅโจ
Iโm starting a brand-new video series where Iโll take popular movies and connect them to real academic fieldsโfrom neuroscience and linguistics to physics, psychology, and beyond. Weโll explore the science (and the fiction) behind the stories, asking: Could this actually happen?
๐ฎ The first episode will dive into the indie sci-fi film Listening (2014), which imagines a device that lets us share thoughts directly from brain to brain. Weโll look at what the movie gets right, what it stretches, and how real neuroscience is already experimenting with brain-computer interfaces that might one day decode our inner speech.
๐ง Telepathy has always fascinated humanityโฆ but how close are we really?
โก๏ธ If this excites you, make sure to subscribe so you donโt miss the premiere.
โก๏ธ If you know a friend who loves movies and science, share this with themโitโs the perfect series for curious minds.
This is just the beginning. Next up: Minority Report, Contagion, Interstellar, Inception, and many more!

๐ Literature Review vs. Systematic Literature Review โ Whatโs the Difference? ๐
Doing academic research? Before you dive into writing, make sure you understand which type of review is right for your work!
๐ธ Literature Review
An exploratory journey through the literature
Identifies themes and connects ideas
Flexible format for building arguments
Can contain bias and subjectivity
๐น Systematic Literature Review (SLR)
A methodological, structured study
Uses strict criteria and search strategies
Reduces bias and increases reproducibility
Synthesizes evidence systematically
๐ก SLRs offer a more rigorous, comprehensive analysisโbut both have their place in research!
