Greed isn’t about how much you want, but about wanting something without paying for it. Nothing in this world is free; everything has a cost, whether seen or hidden. Trying to get something for nothing leads to problems and consequences. What am I actually paying now, and for what? It’s useful to think about this from time to time. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
Even if a work of art or technique that imitates a person is overly clumsy, the favorability declines; conversely, if it is too similar, the favorability drops sharply. This heterogeneous discomfort is known as the “uncanny valley.” Considering these properties, we create robots or create animations. Although technological advancements have made it increasingly difficult to distinguish between live-action and animation, Pixar’s animation clearly shows traces of trying to avoid this uncanny valley. Humans admire these creations, yet they, too, have wrestled with the duality of their nature, as they simultaneously enjoy and dislike it. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
