Yeah, I measured the bolt I had and gave it the outer diameter in mm and the thread per mm. Just asking it blind would have given me all sorts of guesses.
I do this all the time for work. Better yet, because it’s local hardware, I ask the old guy employee who’s been there a hundred years to help me find it. Only time is failed is when they didn’t have what I needed in the exact metal I wanted. They had it in zinc though 🤷♂️
I’ll still use AI for stuff, but it’s good to talk to people too sometimes

I once had to get new bolts in imperial. So I grabbed a metric bolt that was closest to it and went to the hardware store and eye balled it.
No mess, no fuss, no issues.

so you had an llm do math. that’s a notoriously bad use case for it
I did the math. What the llm did was provide the statistically likely answer based on what other people have asked and answered on the internet.
Unless I’m the first person to look for screws.
