Using generative AI, including for illustrations, necessarily decreases authenticity and accuracy in science communication. (The latter point becomes apparent once you realize thereβs no letter Q in the image you posted about ubiquitin)
Yes! Itβs truly timeless.
When someone asks you what a woman is, ask them to tell you what water is first and watch them struggle. If they say βwater is an element,β laugh at them for subscribing to medieval, unscientific ideas.
Trumpβs responses have become indistinguishable from what Satan would say if he was president.
If you still know a Trump voter, itβs not too late to yell hurtful insults at them until theyβre out of your life forever.

One big challenge for me is the question of how deep you might want to dive into different partial topics that detract from your main point. Sometimes itβs necessary to clarify a concept, sometimes itβs a fun distraction, sometimes itβs just a distraction. Carl always finds the best balance.
