every time I see an article with AI graphics or hear about hallucinated citations I think about this
I spent three days tracking down citations on a certain kind of thatch roofed building for my article to please a reviewer and meanwhile everyone in the business school is churning out slop, some of which is plagiarized
i regret to inform you that this is pretty funny

Go my Bothriolepis... This year's fish pecan pie! Bothriolepis was a peculiar-looking placoderm from the Devonian period or the Paleozoic. It had two long pointed pectoral fins and silly little eyes on top of its head.
