5/14/2025 – The FCP Newsletter and AI Dilemma
Written by: George Scholey
On a side note, I was recently asked why I hadn’t put out a newsletter since 2019. I informed them that life’s distractions and events have kept me pretty occupied with responsibilities. But that I was still in the process of writing the next newsletter since 2020.
Then the question was presented to me, “Why don’t I use AI to help write articles, and save some time? It has come a long way.”
My first reaction was that of bemused interest. But then I realized that, though AI could surely come up with some content to throw into a newsletter, it just didn’t seem right to me. I don’t believe I have anything against AI, it’s just that the newsletter has always been an outlet for me to be able to get information out there, be creative, and have something to be able to present people in written form.
It wasn’t about coming up with the stories and articles, it was about expression and connection. Connecting with those who were involved in previous projects, new people who are interested in knowing a little bit more about Flaming Cabbage Productions, and just having fun.
So to answer the question, no. I don’t believe I’ll ever use AI with the newsletter. It’s not for any other reason than I just want to do it myself. To make it a personal experience between me and the reader. It’s just what I enjoy doing.
5/13/2025 – President George Scholey Vows “No More Updates until the Completion of the Studio.”
It’s been over 4 years since the start of the construction process for the studio and headquarters for Flaming Cabbage Productions. Along the way, FCP’s president has posted updates in the form of videos, online postings, pictures, etc.
However, he’s decided not to make any more posts until they have completed construction and painting of the studio. “I’ve enjoyed over the years making videos and whatnot describing where we were in the process of making the studio,” George said. “It just seems that recently as we’ve been in the final stages of painting the studio for so long, pushing day-by-day until construction is completed … it’s just going so slowly. Recent updates have been repetitive and there’s no real new information to put out there.”
Because of this, FCP’s main founding member and president has decided to wait until the studio is completed to start making more production-based updates, instead. He did say that, when the time comes, he would make a video showing the studio in it’s completed form before setting things up, but that he was lacking interest in his update videos being ‘a recursive algorithm of insignificant information’.
Still he urges everybody to watch for a future update video coming, hopefully soon, showcasing the completed, painted, and operational studio. A moment he’s been waiting for well over 4 years.
