        AI: Hold my water that I need more than humans

        : proceeds to hallucinate that the car factory needs to reroute catalytic converters to China by using its unfettered access in the procurement and shipping systems :

          Our city made it illegal for scrap dealers to accept catalytic converters, and suddenly theft vanished entirely. Weird.

              EVs don't have catalytic converters.

                  Same, but my state. It was maybe 6 months after mine was stolen.

                  (technically, you can still sell them but the rules are strict. One of the ways was if the catalytic converter was attached to a car at the time. I think the other way was just more paperwork.)

                        I was driving a busload of kids home one evening outside of Philadelphia, and I passed by a mechanic's shop that had a big lit-up sign that said "WE BUY CATALYTIC CONVERTERS". I'd like to assume it was a honeypot but I have no idea if it was or not.

                          More catalytic converters than George Washington had dicks.

                                Lots of copper and batteries though.

                                        ... About the same actually both are attached to the bottom on the vehicle. Granted the battery pack is heavier and comes with the spiciest of sparks. But they are taking copper from live buildings, not sure they will pass up cars.

                                          Well apparently all it would need to do is be a generstive AI trained on the image of a cstslytic converter in order to ""steal"" them.
