When scientists step outside their safe laboratories, anything can happen. Of course, studying wild animals or digging out million-year-old fossils sounds exotic and exciting, but that’s only one side of the spectrum. The other side is sometimes gross and scary but mostly it’s hilarious. In 2015 scientists started sharing their most embarrassing #Fieldworkfails, and recently French illustrator Jim Jourdane has decided to compile the most memorable ones and turn them into amusing whimsical drawings.

I almost threw my phone.
Oh my god
I thought it was going to be a jumpscare maze, but it was far worse.
Shuri: I have this science headcannon-
Tony: [looks at Peter for translation]
Peter, mouthing: it means ‘hypothesis’

some people: robots will see the cruelty of man and will destroy us
MIT scientist: let’s make this robot evil on purpose
Okay, let’s clarify….Norman is not evil. Norman was just fed an amount of reddit captions about death, while another AI got standard reddit captions, and then both did rorshach tests as an experiment to show how easily algorithms could be bent. For example, where the standard AI saw “vase with flowers” Norman saw “a man is shot dead”.
Since Norman has shown no actual desire to harm any living thing, merely a fascination with death, I propose we rebrand him as the first Goth AI.
