7yo daughter: "How do you teach characters how to move?"

clearly she had overheard me talking to someone

Me: "Well, do you know what data is?"

7yo: "Yea. It's like information."

Me: "Good! So we have a lot of information on human movement from recordings. We tell the computers to learn all that movement. And so from any one spot of movement, the computer can predict the next spot of movement. And we tell the computer to do that millions and millions of times. When it does it right, we tell it. And when it does it wrong, we tell it. And it learns and eventually it can do it right all the time."

7yo: "Is it hard?"

Me: "Ha. Yes. It's very hard."

7yo: "You make it sound so easy."

Me: 😳
