When doing some electrical, Opus 4.7 essentially told me to wiggle a wire to see if it was hot or not with my bare hand.

I called it out.

It then gave me one of the most super heartfelt honest and sincere apologies I have ever received.

Glad the safety team was there for me and able to make such an honest model or I would have been very upset about it.

Opus is so bad at electrical work it's really disappointing. And when it tries to draw schematics as SVGs it's a complete disaster. They should either focus on training their LLMs on this task specifically, or have it refuse.

Hmm, what kind of electrical work? I had it "watch over my shoulder" as I swapped out the pressure switch on our home well and it was a big help. And in the run up to that when I explained opening the 220 box and checking that was "above my paygrade" it limited our investigation to just the less sparky parts.

I mean introductory circuit stuff. Not electrician-lite work.

[morpheos137]

have it write python porogram to generate the svgs. then use the program. circuit diagrams are rrlatively thin corpus but it knows how ciruits work sufficently to write a program.

[teaearlgraycold]

Is there a good pre-existing DSL for this task?

You ain’t gotta be sniffy about it, English.

SVG is like asking an electrician to give you a circuit diagram by painting a watercolor

I'd try something like CircuiTikZ with instructions provided

I honestly cannot tell if you are being sarcastic or not

[TIPSIO]

It did try and lead me to touch a live hot wire once. Thanking the safety team for the honest and sincere apology it gave after was sarcasm.

[krupan]

It tried to get you touch a live wire, then you called it honest and thanked the safety team. It really comes off as sarcastic.

[BoorishBears]

So you can tell.
