devil's hole pupfish are the rarest fish on earth. they are also the most inbred fish on earth! they live in ONE place, a hole in the ground called devils hole in nevada. and the thing is they can only survive in that hole, which is 93Fº. literally no other fish can survive in those conditions.

because of their tiny environmental niche, they're critically endangered, so there's a program working to breed them. but the thing is that these guys evolved SO WELL that the conditions they live in have to be exactly like devils hole, or else they straight-up just die, so scientists have needed to replicate the devils hole environment for them to survive.

last year science hippies counted 263 fish, which is a 19-year high!

As AI art gets harder to clock, I feel like we are going to need to have a discussion about attribution and it's probably going to bum some people out.

Because the surest way to avoid platforming, reblogging, or encouraging AI art posting is to know where every image you share originated and that's 1) boring, tedious research and 2) extremely limiting in what you feel you can reblog. But if unattributed images never gets traction, people will start attributing their images.

I've been guilty of this in the past, but for a while now it's been my policy that if I can't verify the origin, I don't share the image. That goes for stuff like screen grabs of headlines too -- more than once I've avoided spreading misinformation by saving a post to research before I reblog, then seeing the post refuted before I've been able to verify it.

And I usually try to attribute photos I take -- case in point, the "woman with shrimp" post gets a lot of attention but not one comment about it being AI, despite it being pretty similar to something you'd get from an AI. That's because I clearly state it's in a museum and link to its catalogue page.

I'm not saying this to scold anyone -- I think yelling at the Internet to cite its sources is very much a losing game -- but because I don't see this discussed much. We're such fertile ground to be fooled by AI art because we've grown accustomed to not questioning the origins of any given image. And of course I also want to encourage both OPs to attribute their images and rebloggers to verify unattributed ones.
