The misery of 9am lectures is much easier to bear when you remember that by getting this science degree and contributing to a new generation of scientific research, you are fighting the good and noble fight against the rise of AI slop which is trying its best to pollute our perception of the truth. In an age of large language models copying bullshit copying bullshit copying bullshit, maybe just by learning how to properly reference a paper this morning you are taking one step in the right direction.
And remember, there is no objective truth in science. It is only a matter of how reproducible a piece of evidence is by another REAL human being like you 1000 miles away, and how likely that is to be due to chance. Any amalgamation of made up data generated in 0.05 seconds by ChatGPT for the sake of upholding a bias absolutely does not fall below that P value threshold.
