I'm looking for teaching materials to help encourage cellular biology students to drop AI illustration and instead sketch during lectures—as well as while conceptualizing the future of food—without fear of lacking hard art skills. Suggestions, anyone?

This is all sadly very true. We urgently need to put together a strategic committee to generate a portfolio of recommendations about how to initiate a reflection about these issues.
