I asked AI to review all the Brain Games in The Thinking Gym, and it said that it hated to show bias, but that this Brain Game was one of its favorites. It said….

“This Brain Game exercises a somewhat different ingenuity muscle: questioning the obvious.

I [AI] particularly like that last instruction, because over time the member may start discovering something about their own thinking, saying something like, “Huh. I [the member, a human being] keep trying to improve the existing process instead of asking whether we need the process at all.”

That’s cognitive fitness.”


Here’s your There’s Got to Be a Better Way! Brain Game. Good luck!
