Miss me with this AI slop

Yeah, I thought it was commenting on AI at first, but then I saw the community and the article link. Interesting article, though.

Yes, but unnecessary use of AI, any pic crudely overlapping the og template would do.

Perfume

They have accounted for clothes and height, but at the bottom they mention it could be smells. It would be ridiculous if they didn't account for perfume and deodorants... Men wear much more neutral fragrances. From reading the actual paper, it seems like they did take this somewhat into account, but not completely.

Are birds using their sense of smell that much? I always thought they were pretty visual and auditory, with all their sexual dimorphic colors and songs and stuff? Doesn't answer anything tho.

It should call bird resources instead.

I thought this was how you're supposed to allow birds to pirch on your finger at first rather than grab them at first
