Hi everybody!

Hi Dr Nick!

Ok, ok, everybody settle down. Just gotta do a quick root canal! The most painful proceedure in all of dentistry if done wrong. But first, let me do a quick google search on how to do it! I'm sure the fact that google is so heavily reliant on AI descriptions right now won't make this situation any worse! What could possibly go wrong???

Google AI recently told me that caimans protect cappybaras so that they can eat their feces.

I would not want it responsible for my root canal

I asked Google's AI if I could use gasoline to cook spaghetti faster and it rightfully told me no, then it suggested using gasoline to make a spicy spaghetti sauce

A friend has the dual fuel double burner model and that thing is great, I didn't realize they had a single burner model. I really like the idea of being able to run a cook top on unleaded gas in a surival/shtf situation but I'm not sure how that's relevant to this thread.

The comment I was responding to was talking about cooking with gasoline, but somehow it got re-arranged.
