In 1948, 76 beavers were dropped from an airplane with parachutes. All but one survived. It started because beavers were causing problems in a small town in the mountains of the northwestern United States. The wildlife department wanted to move them to a remote basin deeper in the wilderness, but transporting them overland by mule wasn’t working. The beavers got aggressive in the heat. The mules panicked at the smell. Too many animals were lost on the way. An employee named Elmo Heter came up with something else. Surplus parachutes from the war. Wooden boxes designed to snap open on impact. Drop them from a plane. They tested it on one old male beaver they named Geronimo. He was dropped over and over on a flying field. Heter wrote that after a while, Geronimo just gave up and would crawl back into his box on his own, ready to go up again. On 14 August 1948, a twin-engine plane took off with eight crates. Over the following days, 76 beavers were parachuted into a remote mountain basin. Geronimo got the first flight. Three young females went with him. The only beaver that didn’t make it had chewed its way out of the box mid-air. When officials checked a year later, every beaver had built a dam, stored food, and started a colony. The original footage was lost for decades until an archivist found it misclassified in the state archives in 2014.

Think of it this way: the war is going to fuck up the global economy so bad that when all’s said and done there are going to be a million places for AI to increase shareholder value
