A machine learning animation technology from the same creator whose work was infamously shot down by Studio Ghibli’s Hayao Miyazaki in a viral video almost 10 years ago, will be used in a new evolution/god-sim game coming out next week.
I had to read this headline once. Then twice. Then a third time, really slowly, to actually parse its meaning. After doing that, I was fed up with the article already so didn’t read it.
There’s a company that created some technology that Hayao Miyazaki hates, and that company is going to release a game.
It’s not that hard.
Is reading comprehension really just circling the damn drain at this point? Like yeah I’ve seen some article titles that absolutely do not make sense; this isn’t one of those.
No you were correct. It’s a shit headline. I had to re-read it a few times and still not completely sure I understand what it’s trying to convey without reading the article, itself.
This isn’t about reading comprehension. This is about some jackass editor making a title with too many words instead of condensing it by removing a title or a name or just including some commas to separate words from one another.

Those comma placements would have helped a ton making better sense of what they were trying to convey. But since titles shouldn’t include commas, they should have just chose a different way to phrase this.

I will be the first to admit that I am a dumb dumb.

I keep rereading the title because you say it doesn’t make sense. It makes complete sense. I think you just need to work on your comprehension skills.
