An ode to Tim Berners-Lee with AI Art

@Tim Berners-Lee

An AI generated, scene depicting Tim Berners-Lee as a master weaver at a cosmic loom, crafting the World Wide Web from golden threads of light that connect distant galaxies. His hands are guided by the spectral presence of Leonardo da Vinci, whose sketches of flying machines hover in the air, and Thomas Edison, whose glowing light bulb illuminates the scene with a warm, innovative glow. The background features a futuristic cityscape interwoven with ancient scrolls - one scroll says "Rock 'n Roll CEO" - symbolizing the blend of past and future knowledge.
