Parents tearing their hair out over children spending hours gaming should instead be encouraging their creative use of tech, a recently-knighted AI millionaire has told the BBC.
a recently-knighted AI millionaire
I don’t even know what to say to this.
That said, games are great for creativity and mental health and whatever, as long as they are not lootbox-laden casinos.
Yeah the article lost all credibility after I read that part haha.
So glad Knight Millionaire Bot was here to inform us mere peasants.
Interesting anecdote. Fortunately, it’s supported by research.
Why is their game running on their second screen? And what are they doing on their primary one? Playing another game?
They’re reading the wiki for lore because they’re 85% through the game skipping all cutscenes and lore drops, but they’re finally interested in the story now, if only because of the lore based puzzle they’re stuck at.
Too relatable :')
If playing one game boosts creativity by a little bit, playing two games at once must boost it by a lot.
Imagine they’re playing CSGO and DOTA at the same time 🤯
They’re an old-school Runescape player setting up their afk-grind so that they don’t lose xp efficiency while they play a game with their friends.
No shit. Puzzles are visual problem-solving. An absolute moron would not be able to beat a good puzzle game without a guide.
