I dare you to use ChatGPT to wire a plug.
This is why AI is absolute horse shit.
@nomenloony That's appalling. AI simply lacks intelligence. It's bloody dangerous.

@nomenloony this is one of my normal tests about how crap AI image gen is.

I did a more recent one with maps which was properly hilarious.

Don't feed your AI on magic mushrooms

@nomenloony I like how the cable grip doesn't actually grip anything.

@nomenloony @cyplo The fuse is in the plug, so which breakers?
@hans_zelf @cyplo breakers operate quicker than fuses, so often the breaker will trip but the fuse will be fine. It's not the case if you've got an old BS-88 fusebox though with the rewireable fuses and wire.

@nomenloony Wait till you see the code it generates!
I’ve been using it professionally for the last 6 weeks or so to “yolo” an app in work. Using Claude but I guess I’m spending 30-40% of my time cleaning up the code out generates.

@nomenloony the mysterious 4th wire that nobody ever mentions
@seb321 it's two/one phasing

@cyplo @nomenloony You'd need an equally bizarre socket to put it in.
@barnesmaurice @cyplo @nomenloony
You could tell your LLM of choice to instruct your 3D printer to produce something that fits... -

@nomenloony yeah sometimes I forget not everyone has RCBOs

@nomenloony This is a practical, physical analog of what is actively happening in the software space... with the full support and giddy encouragement of industry.

@nomenloony I work in a high school and have a wired plug with every mistake I could think of as a demo, "find the problems". It's kept in a locked box, and has the earth pin twisted so it can't easily be used, because it's fucking lethal.
This is somehow worse. -

@nomenloony yes, true! But great quality of images

@nomenloony I wonder how it does with a US plug? I bet this is more US centric BS in the models - on top of the how dangerous this crap is.
@Paperposts @nomenloony
OLD UK was
Live = Red
Neutral = BlackOld AC/DC Radios & TVs had chassis to Neutral (Maybe) and no Earth. All external metal was isolated.
USA was
Live = Black
Neutral = White
During 1940s USA radios were imported that had a dropper in the mains cord to reduce 240V to 110V. They might have had a capacitor from mains (maybe neutral or live) to metal work and / or chassis. Rated for 110V not 240V mains. -
@nomenloony
This makes me think in how many people have actually died somehow by a LLM...That number is already non-zero.

@nomenloony well, the insulation was correctly labelled, so you know, the glass was half-full, right?

@nomenloony True! ChatGPT gave me these two monstrosities! I also used the AI ALT-Text generator in IceCubes and it didn’t notice the weirdness.
-
@nomenloony for those of you that don’t know, or won’t remember a pic of the correct one, it’s super easy - from the back of the plug - BLue = Bottom Left, BRown = Bottom Right
It amazes me just how … shit … this AI nonsense is. Happy to say aside from one try when it first launched, never used it since. Crapola
