Working on the character art, and suddenly felt unsettled about Sigma Four... #AgentHiggs2

Five panel comic.
1. A happy character with wide unyielding eyes says: Why would I deceive you? There's no, there's no reason for me to do that.
2. A tired looking character says: Okay. All right. Okay. Good chat.
3. Tired character says: You're being real right now?
4. Happy character says I'm always being real.
5. Happy character staring more, without text.

I'm probably going to get muted or blocked for this, but as a fellow science communicator, using AI-generated imagery/text is really a bad look all around. It not only steals from your fellow scientists because it's all trained on stolen data, it also makes up fake science.

A player found a bug in the periodic table in Agent Higgs 2 -- which made me take a closer look at it. I had left it very minimally drawn, because (a) it's small (b) not critical, and (c) drawing a periodic table sounded like a lot of tedious work. But that made it hard to debug, and not pretty.

Cartoony image of the top of a couple manila folders, labeled Gadolinium and Proton on the tabs. On the paper in the folder is a periodic table, labeled Element #64, the table is all blank blue squares, save one lighter blue square. Under the text says: I didn't know our lab was large enough to synthesize this nucleus!

It's Fish Tank Floorshow Night. That's right. Just a bit of time left to prepare. For inspiration, let me take you on a journey to *show* you the *floor* of the largest *fish tank*. The ocean. neal.fun/deep-sea/ #ScienceHoliday

Blue as if you're under the sea, with the title The Twilight Zone. Images of four sea creatures are placed around, labeled with their names: wolf eel, thick-billed murrie dive, haddock, and one who looks like a shark but we can't see their name.

Out now! Chapter 2: Nucleus. Neutrons, nuclear forces, and just for good measure, holes in the floor. Looks like these levels are (sunglasses) con-fusing. Good luck! testtubegames.com/higgs2.html #AgentHiggs2 #NoAI

Screenshot of a game menu screen titled Chapter 2 Nucleus. Underneath is a large thumbnail button with a grid of tiles, including Agent Higgs, a couple holes in the floor, and four protons and neutrons connected by heart shaped pions. The tagline underneath says: Stick together through thick and thin. Under that are buttons for Basic, Challenge, and PhD levels.

Level in Agent Higgs 2 titled Nucleus 9. Two neutrons and a proton connected into a nucleus, one neutron off to the side alone, and an electron in the top. A mysterious character says: The nuclear force makes an unbreakable bond. ... or not?

Level in Agent Higgs 2 titled Nucleus 12. There is a whole area in the lower right that's a hole, with Higgs perched in the hold on a small floor tile. In the upper left are four neutrons and four protons. A mysterious character says: Wow, Higgs, you really live life on the edge!

Five blue characters in room with some sort of red alarm light across it, and varying expressions on their faces, ranging from scared to excited. In the middle, a bored looking character says: Here we go again...

Happy Museum Day! Go explore the Hall of Fossils at the Smithsonian. Right now. Via the power of cyberspace. naturalhistory2.si.edu/vt3/NMNH/DT/... #ScienceHoliday

A spiral sign display at a museum with various paleo images in the spiral. Text says Journey Through Deep Time. In the background there appears to be a large fossil skeleton.

It's #fossilfriday! Here's a guy from HOW TO SURVIVE PREHISTORY: Arthropleura, a (probably!) herbivorous millipede relative that roams the coal forests of Carboniferous Scotland. Survival Verdict: YES. It's got a nasty nip, but we feel if you get bit, you have it coming.

Don't believe the LIES of BIG CORN DOG. These things grow WILD in wetlands across the US. That's why I always carry a jar of mustard when hiking, in case I feel like a snack. Let's talk about Typha latifolia, the broadleaf cattail & their remarkable seed dispersal capacity.

Higgs is out, and freer than ever. Agent Higgs 2 - Demo Version - is now available free online. Starting with Chapter 1: Electricity... testtubegames.com/higgs2demo.h...

Cartoony scene of a tall billboard shown outside among grassy hills. There's a happy blue character wearing a red jester's hat, holding out their arms forming a rainbow filled with particles: electron, muon, tau, proton, neutron. The top says: Welcome to the Wonderful World of Particle Physics. The bottom says: Now including the Higgs Boson. The area that would show the Higgs boson is mysteriously missing. The mysterious dark figure in a hat is nearby on a ladder, holding a roll of paper.

Also not sure how one reconciles "AI is the future" with the semi regular posts of people who talk about quitting AI like overcoming addiction and who say AI coding made them more exhausted, less happy, less productive, and less skilled
