I don't want to test it myself for obvious reasons. In the science experiments I have seen things cooled with liquid nitrogen become brittle and crack if hammered.

Jep. But the point is that you know what to do to find a tool to do the hammering. Without own intelligence all is nil.

That can go in pieces anytime if you wait for a while.

I got Opus to produce nonsense in minutes. It’s also the cool kind of nonsense - the individual words are right, but the sentence (yes, one sentence)…

Either I’m so bloody special or everyone gushing about AI is lying.

PS: Send help.
