Abstract
It seems almost on a weekly basis that a new discovery in palaeontology is announced. Perhaps, in part, this is because the outlets for publishing have increased, with new online publications, or at least—once paper and bound only—the traditional sources now have internet accessibility allowing priory viewing to the print version. There is also the fact that dinosaurs and other fossils (and the ideas that surround them) are a marketable item; for authors, and the institutions that house the specimens or researchers. The fact is that in a news cycle, which is almost below hourly, and amongst the sensational stress and despair of many of the stories, fossils are a quick ‘feel‐good’ or minimally distractive piece. Collectively, palaeontologists and their fossils are more often than not taking advantage of these public opportunities.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
