It's been a while since KMO put out a free podcast. At long last, here's a conversation with Dermot O'Connor, the Angry Animator, fresh back from an extended stay in Ireland. Now that Dermot is back in the USA, what did his time away prime him to notice with newfound clarity? Later, KMO and Dermot talk about how AI is eating jobs in animation. Dermot says it will put him out of a job. KMO suggests that it will push him more in the direction of authoring animated projects rather than animating them.
