In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgent to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others.

Today's Cabinet Statement was all about appointments and reappointments. May possibly be a new record of number of confirmed executive and non-executive appointments.
Starting from the top - 3 DGs and 4 DDGs got the nod today.
5 CEOs have been appointed at GPW, ATNS, ACSA, the RAF and the IDT.
Mr Johannes Moholola flies into the hot seat at ATNS after Nozipho Mdawe and the board led by Zola Majavu decided to part ways last summer.
Mr Waseem Carrim moves from Acting CEO at NSFAS to permanent CEO at the RAF.
Siphamandla Mthethwa succeeds Mpumi Mpofu at ACSA.
Alford Nsibande steps into the vacuum left by Tebogo Malaka who famously decided to have lunch with a journalist @PLMyburgh (Bravo investigative journalism)
And as we all know - @mteton has been reappointed as @Eskom_SA chairperson
It's all about stability at the Geosciences Council with 4 reappointments and Mdu Zakwe - the erstwhile CEO at MICT SETA - a new addition to the Council alongside ministerial representatives.

At the DBSA - no need to hire a new photographer for the board picture as all have been reappointed with one addition - Mametja Moshe who is the CEO of Moshe Capital and erstwhile NEC member at @ABSIP

Then I remember all the damn philosophy books I’ve read and that recurring theme of regret for the life not attempted; that part of the good life is the striving to become the best versions of ourselves, and that this was never promised to be an easy journey.
Damn you Aristotle, Mencius, Nietzsche and Grayling.
