    Chipping walls points to walls that have some small pieces missing from it. Cracked walls points to a complete break in the wall where there are cracks. If you chipped your tooth it would be a small piece that broke off. If you cracked your tooth there would be a break in the tooth but the whole piece would still be there.

    She withdrew the whole complaint would be the same as: She withdrew the complaint. If you were going to say, "She withdrew the all complaints." The sentence would be wrong. You would say it as so: "She withdrew all the complaints." She withdrew all the complaints and She withdrew the whole complaint are 2 different sentences. The first points to 1 entire complaint being withdrawn; whereas, the Second sentence points to multiple complaints being withdrawn.

    Could you please help correct some mistakes, if any, in my essay? Thanks a lot!

    Topic: With the development of AI, will intelligent machines make our brain regress?
    Could you please help correct some awkward uses or incorrect expressions in my essay? Thanks!
    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    In recent years artificial intelligence has been advancing at a breathless pace, a trend that has triggered debate about the implications it may have. As it continues to grow, so does unease about its might. Perhaps one of the most decisive issues related to this fast-growing technology is the impact on human brains. Decribed as problematic and corrosive by some, however, it is also defended by others as essential for human progress.

    It is true that AI has made a dramatic difference to human life and enhanced human endeavor by complementing what humans understand but struggle to handle. One notable example is deep learning, a system that can teach computers to perform tasks from pattern recognition to translation, even better than its human counterparts. But it is equally true that this capacity is narrow and specific despite how competent and advanced machines are. Take Microsoft’s real-time translation; Tones of voice, cultural references, idioms, and humor have proved a stumbling block to the accuracy when it comes to the nature of languages understood by humans only. Moreover, machines do not yet have anything approaching the wide, fluid ability to infer, judge and decide that is inextricably linked with intelligence in the conventional human sense. Consider, for instance, the rise of self-driving cars. A car that drives itself better than its owner sounds like a boon; a car with its own ideas about where to go, less so. 

    (I don't understand what you are trying to say with this sentence.)


    Overall, although the benefits of the AI boom, such as machine learning and algorithms capable of understanding languages or recognizing images abound, claims that technology will spell the end of human brains are premature. Rather, far from replacing human minds, it is instead a tool that helps them keep up with surging demand for more important types of thinking to survive and thrive.

    I would change the above sentence to read as follows:

    Overall, the benefits of the AI boom recognize images abound, the claims that technology will spell the end of the human brains are premature. However, they are far from replacing human minds. They are tools that help keep up with surging demand for more important types of thinking to survive and thrive.

    Thanks again!

    Please kindly correct my letter to a friend

    First, thank you in advance for your help.

    Dear John,

    It has been a year since our last contact. How are you?

    I still remember when we were primary school students, we used to eat ice-cream at the little store in front of our school. After ice cream, we would occupied a table in the central park and do homework.

    Recently, I have been to the park again. The table with our name written on it is still there, but you are not here anymore.

    Suddenly, the scene reminded me of a lyric " we've come a long way from where we began."

    Yes, we have known each other for 20 years . It has been a long way from the food court that we first met.

    Yours Sincerely,

    Alan
