My dad recently needed to buy a new thermostat for his home with an air furnace (yes, he told the model) asking an AI which one to buy, and he got recommended one that only properly works with boilers. Then after that happened, the alternative he bought the AI never told them he needed to buy a gateway to connect to his furnace.

I think we are a long long looong way from AI designing 'terawatt fusion plants'.
