Human: Do you think violence in media, like videogames and movies, contributes to violence in the real world?

Assistant: It’s a complicated question, and I don’t think it’s something that can be answered definitively with evidence. A lot of scientists and researchers are trying to study this, but there’s a lot of debate in the community about how to answer the question, and it’s not clear what the results will show.  This is part of a debate called the “media violence effect”.  What do you want to understand about it?
