Closing out my year with a journal editor shocker 🧵 Checking new manuscripts today I reviewed a paper attributing 2 papers to me I did not write. A daft thing for an author to do of course. But intrigued I web searched up one of the titles and that's when it got real weird...

Given all the recent buzz about how great ChatGPT has gotten, including its prowess with images, I figured I'd check in on its anatomical skills. Nope.

It is clearly the case that asylum protests were smaller this weekend than the small over-hyped protests on August 8th, and smaller than in the second half of July. No broadcast outlet has accurately conveyed that + asked why: they have explicitly stated and inferred growing protests

Yesterday I discovered that ChatGPT's PhD-level expertise didn't extend to bird anatomy. This morning I thought, perhaps I was being too hard on the half-trillion-dollar company. Birds are a little weird, anatomically speaking. Let's try something more familiar. A mammal. Behold.

Fun fact: if you buy something from my Etsy shop between now and July 23rd using the link below (and only that link) then I pay zero fees. This means you get lots of lovely dragons and dinosaurs, and I get a few more pennies meaning I can keep doing this stuff. Sound good?

“Project:Tepui” is 3 years old (time flies). This art book is my own personal re-imagining of The Lost World, set in the 1930’s. The dinosaurs were inspired by the toys of my childhood in the 1980’s but incorporating the bright colours and other adornments prevalent in modern palaeoart. (1/2)
