The main difference that we can identify between these two stories is their purpose. The story "How the World Was Made” takes the form of a creation myth. It attempts to describe natural phenomena and explain it through the knowledge of the world that the Native people possess. On the other hand, "The Way to Rainy Mountain" is not a story that explains the world to the Native people, but one that discusses the culture, traditions and way of life of the Native American cultures.

This difference highlights the way that themes have changed throughout the centuries. While the stories were a necessary and basic part of daily life in past centuries, the stories nowadays mostly serve to preserve and value these disappearing cultures. These changes have most likely taken place due to the fact that these cultures have diminished and are struggling to remain alive.

Anton [14]

Answer:

B. Those with moderate knowledge of technology

Explanation:

When we're writing a text or preparing a speech, we need to pay attention to whom our audience will consist of. This will allow us to adjust our language and the information we include so that we are well-understood by the audience.

When writing this article, the author probably had in mind those with moderate knowledge of technology. The article describes a very complex concept, which is why it's not aimed at someone who knows nothing about technology. However, the author put it in layman's terms. This is why we can conclude that it is not intended for developers of AI programs or those with deep knowledge of technology. The effects of human behavior are not the topic of the article, which is why those who study it are not the target audience.

This is why option B is the correct one.
