Worse than useless. Literally. As in actually literally, not ironic literally.
Generative AI using LLMs is trained to produce things that *look* right. So even when they're wrong, they're wrong with confidence and a convincing demeanor.

And you can't build a factory to build those in the USA, even if you wanted to, in under 15 years.
And certainly not with tariffs on materials and tooling you would need to build that factory.
