Micro LED displays
Micro LED displays are a cutting-edge technology that promise significant improvements over existing display methods like OLED and LCD. By using tiny, individual LEDs for each pixel, these displays can deliver exceptional brightness, contrast, and energy efficiency. Their inherent durability and superior performance make them an attractive option for high-end consumer electronics, wearable devices, and even large-scale display panels.
The technology is seen as the future of display innovation, aiming to merge high-quality visuals with low power consumption and long-lasting performance.Despite their advantages, micro LED displays face substantial manufacturing hurdles that have slowed their mass-market adoption. The production process requires the precise transfer and alignment of millions of microscopic LEDs onto a substrate—a task that is both technically challenging and cost-intensive. Issues with yield, scalability, and quality control continue to persist, making it difficult to achieve the economies of scale necessary for widespread commercial use. As industry leaders invest heavily in research and development to overcome these obstacles, the technology remains on the cusp of becoming a viable alternative to current display technologies.

Andrew Perfors – The work of creation in the age of AI
Meaning, authenticity, and the creative process – and why they matter
https://perfors.net/blog/creation-ai/
AI changes the landscape of creation, focusing on the alienation of the creator from their creation and the challenges in maintaining meaning. The author presents two significant problems:
- Loss of Connection with Creation:
- AI-assisted creation diminishes the creator’s role in the decision-making process.
- The resulting creation lacks the personal, intentional choices that contribute to meaningful expression.
- AI is considered a tool that, when misused, turns creation into automated button-pushing, stripping away the purpose of human expression.
- Difficulty in Assessing Authenticity:
- It becomes challenging to distinguish between human and AI contributions within a creation.
- AI-generated content lacks transparency regarding the intent behind specific choices or expressions.
- The author asserts that AI-generated content often falls short in providing the depth and authenticity required for meaningful communication.
- Loss of Connection with Creation:
