News that mushroom identification books have been appearing on Amazon for sale that have been authored by AI bots should not come as a surprise to anyone.
News too that these tomes are misidentifying fungal species should also come as no surprise.
It’s pretty easy to get mixed up with all the different fungi out there, and unless you’ve been out with an expert, definitive identification is difficult.
Stalker can’t remember the last time a mushroom foray had an A.I. bot out in the wild?
