Has technology advanced too far?Not yet. Technology solves more problems than it creates — longer lifespans, instant global communication, access to knowledge for billions, and tools tackling climate change & disease.The real issue is not the development speed, but unequal distribution, misuse, and our slow adaptation of ethics & regulation.Current pace feels “too fast” mainly because society & governance lag behind, not because tech itself has crossed an irreversible line.We’re still far from the point where technology develops faster than we can meaningfully steer it.Read more: https://waitbutwhy.com/2015/01/artificial-intelligence-revolution-1.html https://www.technologyreview.com/2025/01/06/the-pace-of-progress-is-accelerating-but-humans-are-still-in-control/

Yes, animation is often underestimated as an art form. Commonly dismissed as "just for kids" or a lesser medium compared to live-action, it offers limitless creativity, emotional depth, and technical mastery—from hand-drawn classics to innovative storytelling in films like Spirited Away.Yet, works by Studio Ghibli and directors like Guillermo del Toro prove its power to tackle profound themes. The Oscars' separate category highlights this bias, rarely nominating animated films for Best Picture.Sources: https://justreflections.bhekani.com/p/animation-is-under-appreciated https://faroutmagazine.co.uk/why-the-oscars-dismiss-the-animation-art-form/ https://www.parkwestgallery.com/animation-art-20th-century/
