For an example, AskElectricians recently has been invaded by an LLM which generates authoritative-sounding but 95% accurate electrical advice. It’s worse than useless.

To be fair, the same could be said about much of the human activity there (at least as many armchair electricians than licensed ones, who do know a lot, but not everything). Although I suspect the 5% of bad advice is quite different... probably code-compliant but non-functional for the LLM, and functional but not code-compliant for the unlicensed humans.

They're fine if you need help troubleshooting residential electrical, but so is any old AI
