ERRATUM : "not in the homecage, we still use an external setup. It's built to prioritize animal welfare and standardization, featuring a dark and safe environment, video recordings through infrared-permeable walls, built-in infrared light-source, slide-and-lock system, software..." + Nice setup pic!

Yes, they can hallucinate papers that don't exist, discuss results that seem to be imaginary, and can be confusing and inconsistent. But talking to tenured professors may still be helpful
