Before, when working on my car I would google bolt torque specs and usually the first result was authoritative--generally a forum post from a reliable, professional mechanic quoting the factory shop manual. Now the first result is an AI summary, which is wrong roughly 25-50% of the time in my experience. Often it does incredibly stupid things like mix up ft•lbs and N•m. If I were to trust this, it could kill me (or worse, someone else). Now I don't google at all anymore, instead I spend 10min flipping through the manual to find the spec. One might argue that I should have been doing this all along, but it sure was convenient to have basically a 100% reliable, fast alternative. Now that's gone. |
