Enzo Cordelier is going to start his PhD in October with Emmanuelle Pouydebat and I @mecadev.bsky.social on the morpho-functional evolution of the head shape of limbless squamates 🐍 Can't wait to start this new project with him! @mnhn.fr
Le monde académique a ses défauts et il a parfois du mal à remettre en question certaines choses face aux personnalités à forte visibilité, mais il est appréciable que parfois il réussisse à prendre des mesures fortes pour montrer que l'éthique compte !

How do we capture fast and furious snake bites? High-speed video with 3D reconstruction, all at 1000 frames per second! @monashbiol.bsky.social @jexpbiol.bsky.social
So…about AI’s energy use… “…to create a five-second video, a newer AI model uses ‘about 3.4 million joules, more than 700 times the energy required to generate a high-quality image’. That's the equivalent of running a microwave for over an hour.”
Report: Creating a 5-second AI video is like running a microwave for an hour
That's a long time in the microwave.

Rattlesnake social behavior is infinitely more complicated than we once believed. We recently witnessed a female rattlesnake exhibiting apparent courtship behavior to another female, something none of us have ever seen before. www.youtube.com/watch?v=8_aP...
