Creators should LOVE Ai. AI doesn’t make uncreative people creative. It allows creators to become exponentially more creative. Creative iteration that used to take hours , days or weeks, can happen in minutes. The different routes you wanted to take but didn’t have the money or skill to do. Now you can do. The number of gatekeepers drops every day and will eventually hit zero. If you know how to tell a great story, you will LOVE AI. 99 % of content fails. With AI the cost and time it takes to experience and learn from those failures drop like a rock. The people who should HATE AI are those that try to control distribution and the creative process because they are the ones that control platforms and tools. It’s all going to change. Only this time it won’t take decades like it did with streaming.

I am horrified by @FedEx's commercial portraying a driver who killed a rattlesnake while delivering a package as a hero. I have written a letter to FedEx marketing officials and hope that you will do so as well, and will share this post to get more people involved. 1/4

An interesting observation from late winter. This stretch of river floodplain is particularly prone to produce Rough Green Snakes during periods of mild weather. This one was coincidentally (or not?) sharing a tire with a clutch of (Opheodrys-sized) eggs from last year.

The elegant Brown Watersnake, usually a reliable late winter find in a lot of their range. This was one of many I saw on a mild January day in Georgia.

An adult Spring Salamander along with habitat from the Georgia Piedmont. One of my favorite species to search for when it’s not warm enough for snakes to be out.

A larval Spring Salamander from north Georgia. These salamanders have a long larval period, and approach adult size before metamorphosing into their terrestrial form.
