The research proposal is a project I am very excited for. I am very curious as to what I am able to develop and what information I find regarding my concept.  I am sure there will often be challenges in determining the most effective ways for data collection and the general structure but it is not anything I am too worried about. I initially proposed a research idea that considers the effectiveness of artificial intelligence but I may need to rethink my proposal to make it more specific and therefore ensure a much better overall proposal when finished. I think I may shift to the effectiveness of machine learning in a cybersecurity setting as a way to determine if firewalls and other systems that make use of machine learning do so in effective manners that ensure no false positives or false negatives occur.
