Interesting. I would actually not consider any use of AI web scouting to be “over the line” with fair chase, but I *do* consider a few very common things to be over the line.I’m never quite sure where my “boundary for too much technology” is when it pertains to hunting.
But you’re definitely across it by a wide margin.
Easiest example - shooting an animal from more than ~300 yards away. “Tagged him from 620 yards, double lung shot. He never knew I was there!” No shit, Rambo. They’re evolved to evade lions, not supersonic bullets fired from across the chasm.
At least with web scouting, people still have to *do the work.* You can’t shoot something sitting at your desk, and my guess is that the best spots it will recommend will be what we all already know - far away from the roads, in rough terrain. ChatGPT ain’t gonna get your ass to the top of a mountain before sunrise.
