Here's a small bunch of shitty ai generated "dinosaurs" I've collected from supposed "educational" websites & YouTube clickbait. This is why you should support paleoartists, as well as artists of all kinds.

I believe the first two are supposed to be Tyrannosaurs, while the rest are ceratopsians. For comparison, here's some paleoart done by two modern professionals depicting Tyrannosaurs and Ceratopsians.

Max Bellomio's works on the left, while Mohamed Haghani's works are on the right. All ai generated prehistoric animals end up either becoming eldritch abominations, a mishmash of random animals or mutant Tyrannosaurs.

I think my biggest dissapoinment on watching the movie 65 was figuring out the pterosaurs that looked the most decent animals on the story had the orbits switch onto the nasal cavity.

Excuse me ?????

(Also beyond the elephant in the room of how the flightless thing has been outdated for millenia by now, they mention the movement being good, of all things, when they and every "animal" in the prologue feel so weightless and the Quetzalcoatlus LITERALLY LANDS AND STAYS ON IT'S HIND LEGS FOR A WHILE ????)

saw some old paleo art and the sculpture of how they thought megalosaurus looked like when it was first discovered and I had to make that meme

A similar vibe to dragons are absolutely why scaly theropods hold such public appeal, why not just cut out the middleman?

I kinda want to see a fantasy universe have shamelessly awesomebro, Jurassic Park style theropods but they're not referred to as dinosaurs at all, but a kind of dragon. A flightless relative of the wyvern most likely. They can even have fire (or wyvern venom) for extra shameless edge points.

Was watching a documentary on a stupid creationist noah's ark theme park in kentucky, anyway, they have this model of a carnotaurus with gilded horns fighting in a gladitorial arena and ngl it's fucking rad. Might use it in a dnd campaign.

I approve of creationists incorporating actual prehistoric animals in to their wack narratives because it will expose their children to dinosaurs. Children can and will get obsessed with dinosaurs which we all know are the gateway drug to science.
