Evolve (TV series)

Evolve is a 2008 documentary television series on History. The series premiere, "Eyes", was nominated for an Emmy for Outstanding Science, Technology and Nature Programming.

Each episode attempts to explain the evolutionary origins of a particular trait of living creatures: for example, Tyrannosaurus rex's 13-inch teeth, the gecko's "Velcro-like" toe pads, and the bald eagle's "telescopic" vision capable of spotting a hare a mile away.[1]

gollark: FEAR the webring².
gollark: I'm sure Google has lots of spare GPU/TPU power. They have some ridiculous GPT-3-scale image/text model in development now, and use BERT-like entities for search parsing.
gollark: I'd think that it would be possible to detect it if you had a lot of samples of it versus real human text. And there was this demo highlighting differences between human and GPTous text, via highlighting low-probability-from-the-model words (which are often also the most important).
gollark: I wonder if Google/search engines generally can detect GPT-3ous content yet.
gollark: That sounds hard, actually.
