AI can create images fast. It just can't always earn trust.

Consumers are getting better at spotting AI content, and the data shows it's affecting how they feel about brands. We put together a quick breakdown covering what's changing, why authentic photography and custom design are outperforming AI visuals, the FTC disclosure rules that a lot of businesses don't know apply to them, and a copyright issue worth understanding before you build a brand around AI-generated images.

AI is a great tool. It just needs the right oversight around it.

Dolly Parton built an empire by making even the most ordinary things feel celebrated, and that's the kind of creativity we're always chasing. To honor Dolly, we asked our team what their favorite song by her was. Whether it's 9 to 5 to get you through Monday, Hard Candy Christmas on repeat every December, or Islands in the Stream as your go-to karaoke track, Dolly Parton had an impact on each of us.🦋

Part 2 of Hot August Night street interviews with Anntoine! 🎙️

We caught up with Hammond's own Johnny Chauvin of Tangi 96.5's Johnny in the Morning Show, and one of the event's founding members, who told us exactly where the name "Hot August Night" came from (it's not what we assumed it would be).

What's your favorite HAN memory?
