<\/a> You think TikTok is just <\/strong>for Crinjaat<\/a><\/strong>, lip synching, <\/strong>and <\/strong>the yoof<\/a><\/strong>? Its latest foray<\/strong> into books suggests otherwise.<\/strong> BookTok<\/a>, the literary branch of video-sharing app TikTok<\/a>, is driving book sales at scale, the Financial Times<\/a> reports. BookTok videos \u2014 usually short videos where people talk about their favorite books \u2014 have clocked up some 56.6 bn views in the past four years, according to TikTok. And while BookTok\u2019s appearance at established events in the global literary calendar \u2014 like the UK\u2019s Hay Festival<\/a> \u2014 offers festival goers fresh ways to engage with reading as a discipline, publishers say it\u2019s also helping to spur the thing that matters most to them: An increased bottom line.<\/p>\n

New-age Tamagotchi: Virtual parenting edition. <\/strong>Remember Tamagotchis, the widely-popular Japanese digital pets that were sold in small devices in the 90s? Just like actual pets, Tamagotchis needed to be cared for, loved and fed \u2014 digitally. Now, Tamagotchi kids are about to make a debut, according to artificial intelligence expert Catriona Campbell. Your computer-generated offspring will cuddle with you, play with you, grow with you, and even look like you, Campbell claims, adding that this could be the world\u2019s remedy to overpopulation. As the financial burdens of bringing a child into the world continue to rise, virtual babies will cost next to nothing to bring up in the metaverse, she points out. \u201cVirtual children may seem like a giant leap from where we are now, but within 50 years technology will have advanced to such an extent that babies which exist in the metaverse are indistinct from those in the real world,\u201d she writes in her new book,AI by Design: A Plan For Living With Artificial Intelligence<\/a>. \u201cAs the metaverse evolves, I can see virtual children becoming an accepted and fully embraced part of society in much of the developed world,\u201d Campbell concludes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
