The book was out of print, but genetics and DNA testing have advanced so much in the last decade that an updated version is needed.

That experience is what makes the books useful. Too many writers try to write about subjects they've researched but never lived. Readers can tell the difference.

AI for Horse People: From Curious Beginner to Confident Use

Artificial Intelligence (AI) seems to be everywhere. It's writing articles, answering questions, generating images, organizing information, and helping people solve problems in minutes rather than hours. Yet for many horse owners, riders, breeders, and trainers, AI can still feel unfamiliar or even intimidating.

The truth is, you don't need Read more of this blog post »
