I'd read on the internet that strawberry runners severed from their source plant won't be able to root. Of course I had to test that claim. Worked fine. #strawberry #fragaria #propagation #plants #fruit #gardening #vegetative

#Vegetative #electron #microscopy” is #nonsense. And yet several scientific #papers have included the phrase over the past few years.

When two papers from the 1950s were digitized, two columns of text may have been read together incorrectly, the “vegetative” from one column smushed up with the “electron microscopy” in the other.

The #researchers discovered the phrase started showing up in responses generated by #OpenAI’s GPT 3.0, which was released in 2020.

AI thinks “vegetative electron microscopy” is real — it’s not

The appearance of a nonsense term in multiple scientific papers has exposed how flawed data in training sets can become embedded in AIs.

Science nerds just discovered that "vegetative #electron microscopy" is popping up in papers like #dandelions in the yard 🌿🔬. Spoiler: it’s probably just a fancy way to say, "We have no clue what we're doing." 😂 Thank you, #science, for another episode of "Let's Confuse the Public!" 🎭

It's the same with "#vegetative #Dystonia" - If you don't know #anything about a #Diagnosis, this will serve you well.
