screen time fallacy

The misconception that a robot or AI's behavior can be attributed to excessive "screen time", similar to how it affects human children, ignoring the fundamental differences in programming, autonomy, and design between machines and humans. It's just a matter of coincidence that such humanoid robot was conceived and "born" at a lab with as many screens as a sci-fi spaceship.
Blaming the humanoid robot's inappropriate actions on a 'screen time fallacy' is just ridiculous; it’s not like it was sitting in front of an iPad binging brainrot contents!
