(To clarify, I mean the accuracy of the photos, not quality)

It’s google don’t get angry over a ai algorithm. If someone wants to really learn about ants there not gonna rely on a quick google search they would come here.

You'd think so Jonathan but check out all the people on this spider thread telling the guy who posted a spider to "whatbugisthis" on reddit to "just google it"

https://www.reddit.c...recluses_but_i/

I would prefer not getting information rather than getting wrong information. And it can be a big mess! For a time,  a photo of a euro wood ant, Formica rufa (protected!!) showed up as the first photo for "fire ant" (which people generally mean to be the invasive Solenopsis invicta )

Starting this July I'm posting videos of my ants every week on youTube.

I like to make relaxing videos that capture the joy of watching ants.

If that sounds like your kind of thing... follow me >here<.
