Naaah. Too big. 36-inches by 24hinches was too cylindrical (should be twice as long as it is wide).
Switching to metric ..and maths. The circumference of my old ones is about 80-90cm (about 32 to 36 inches) so let's try 80cm (L) X 40cm (W).
More mosquitoes than millimetres in this project right now!

"Generative AI is not a research tool; it is a probability machine," the paper reads.
"The outputs have nothing to do with the truth, and as AI is increasingly trained on the reams of synthetic AI-generated content flooding the internet, the risks of incoherence, bias" & AI model collapse, rise
