Robert M. Geraci, lecturer at Manhattan College and author of Apocalyptic AI: Visions of Heaven in Robotics, Artificial Intelligence, and Virtual Reality, writes on the Oxford University Press blog about ten ways playing World of Warcraft will help you cope with the collapse of civilisation as we know it. Snip: “After countless hours of farming for minerals, herbs and animal hides, you’re well prepared for life after subprime mortgages collapse the economy.
Let’s face it, the economy is in shambles and no one knows when it will recover. On the other hand, while toxic mortgage securities provide neither housing nor security, a proper skinner can ensure that all the local children stay warm through the winter.” (thanks to Julio at OUP for the heads-up)
