you see, once they don't have heads, they can no longer form the little lines on the pottery, so they can't contribute to society anymore. It's really sad.

...but one of my favourite things about the journal is showcasing the organisms and systems that the published work comes from (this year's gallery: www.nature.com/natecolevol/...) via beautiful photos. And the day AI art appears on one of our covers (yes we do get submissions) is the day I quit!

I'm not sure that's totally true: at Nature journals authors are also invited to submit potential cover art, and at NEE we inevitably have to make difficult choices each month because of the amazing quality of author photos. We occasionally commission a cover eg www.nature.com/natecolevol/.... 1/2

really want a marbled cat now

Moa de-extinction, moa problems.
