Potted this on the Facebooks this morning:
The idea, of course, is a good one, at least as long as people remember to put the plates back in the right place.
What I object to is the AI presentation of this scenario.
First of all, it's pretty odd to have a blank plate to cover a box in a wall. Sure, I've got a few in my house, but a junction like this isn't likely to be set up this way -- there should be a switch. Unless this was the result of a remodel, but even then, why not a switch if you're adding new wiring?
But on to the AI.
Look at the baseboard on the floor. Then look at the open box in the wall.
The perspective does not match. Behold:
It's clear the photo with the box was taken straight on, or near enough straight on. The lines for the box don't match the perspective line for the baseboard, which is probably a reason the plate covers the bottom of the box, which is closer to the baseboard.
Also, that hole in the wall is HUGE compared to other elements in the photo. A plate ain't gonna cover that.
I guess if you're hungry for content and engagement, AI is a good way to get people to comment on the slop, and then argue about it. Either way, it's sloppy.
