Crowd Sourcing: Does anyone know an AI platform, preferaably free for a trial, that can generate schematic scientific models or diagrams?

Yes, I was writing this as an attmept at a funny warning to otherswho may try it. Also different AI paltforms give completely(!) different scores and evaluations.

The AI review of grant applications is incredibly realistic! Each time I put word-for-word the same grant in AI, I get completely differrnt scores and critiques.

I am going with:
The Demon of Unrest by Larson
Creation Lake by Rachel Kushner.

Best not published in 2024: This is Happiness by Niall Williams. A story of dealing with loss in all aspects of life and the idea that happiness can be found in small ways. A slog but unforgettable.
