Post 749 - Ce N'est Pas Magritte

 

(c) 2025 MMXXV Jim Middleton, not Magritte, The Animating Apothecary


And, an observation on this eve of Memorial Day, 2025:

If AI can provide 50 animators the power of 500, and if the 19th century mentality continues to ooze from this administration, we will find our talented minds looking elsewhere in a world that will no longer need the US.  China can play the long game, having outlasted several empires; and if they can absorb the tenets of capitalism in a mere 40 years and then integrate it with a motivated society, with a mastery of AI –  as they have mastered philosophies, phones, the internet, and EVs – our undereducated, manipulated society will become irrelevant.  We will become the junkyard dogs of the world, fighting for scraps, our walled-in clusters merely reality- TV entertainment.  “Eat your dinner, Johnny, there are starving children in America.”
