Psychologist Paula Ebner explained why bonding with chatbots feels natural 🧠–and why we must stay aware of data, design, and corporate interests ⚖️
Digital intimacy needs reflection, research & responsibility.
How do you see AI companions evolving?

Today, we wrapped up our four-day seminar on inclusive gaming at TH Köln!
This time, we focused on accessibility and inclusion in media education and were excited to meet students who did not have much prior gaming experience, but were highly engaged and eager to learn more about it.
This was yet another great opportunity to test the Open Educational Resources currently developed as part of our project InclusiveGameLab, and we received very encouraging feedback.

I ran a Midjourney workshop with some kids today and this image has been by far my favourite. 🦄
What a fun day it was. Learning how to create images and also talking about the technology, it’s pros and cons and obviously I sprinkled some bias rants on top because sometimes this machine is producing some serious bullshit!
