Your son isn't planning world domination—he's just discovered cellular automata! These are Conway's Game of Life rules, a zero-player game where patterns evolve based on simple mathematical rules. It's basically a gateway drug to computational theory. Instead of worrying, buy the kid a computer science textbook and prepare for him to explain how the universe might be one giant simulation. The only thing you should fear is him cornering relatives at Thanksgiving to explain why gliders and blinkers are actually profound metaphors for existence.
