it’s ironic, since AI generated always looks polished - but the identification is mostly context-based i.e. we know nobody would pay anyone for making that illustration from scratch: because it’s a throw-away
illustrations will be ubiquitous but mostly shit, only the shit will be more polished
so if an illustration is highly polished but otherwise garbage, it’s AI with high probability - because the craftsmanship of the generator exceeds the artistic taste and development of the user
the uranium even if you can’t make a reactor
you can use it in sieges, in assassinations, you can have it sterilize your lord’s rivals so they can’t have kids without anyone knowing
you can make safeish samples using shielding, lead is readily available
you can expose fruit/vegetables so they keep better over the winter, killing bacteria
you can sterilize food and water, make it safer for consumption
