They're about $80 surplus now which is a nice value for an older GPU

I would fire, and maybe harm, anybody who laid out a board that bad.

One more AI PCB hallucination, this one looks sorta realistic, if you

You can select XY tiling with this software and tile them out to cover a
wall!
Typical crazy, idiotic traces. Like a car with the wheels on the
sides, or a shower facing the wall.

Yeah, I'll start getting concerned when it can be sensible with layouts.
But that'll be some other kind of software, this doesn't "know" anything >about electrical rules or any of that.
It stitches together fragments of other images until some other AI that
also doesn't know anything about the rules can't easily distinguish it
from a training image, whaddya want.

Artist impressions of electronics are often hilarious. Trace routings
are the instant giveaway; they make no sense.
I don't understand why people pay for absurd stock images when they
could use a real picture of one of their real boards. Probably because
they hire web designers who can't tell the difference.
Our new web site had that problem, full of absurd stock images. I made
them use pics of real boards and schematics.
https://highlandtechnology.com/
That first image is a digital delay generator board. Maybe we DO buy
FPGAs with glowing blue stars on top. I think someone took some
artistic license, but it's based on a real board.
Abstract images of PCBs are the popular-culture vision of technology.
Weird.

Hmmm. I also detest web pages with things that move. Get rid of
that useless animated arrow. It's irritating.

Hi Jeff! It's been some time we had news from you! Good to
see you're still kicking.
Let's call it Artificial Ignorance, or Artifical Stupidity.
It has some way to go yet before it will be truly convincing.
Not sure if that's good or bad.
This one >https://www.vecteezy.com/photo/33115990-electronic-circuity-intricately-designed-on-circuit-boards-driving-technological-innovations-ai-generated
looks like the pilgrimage to Mecca.

Cool. These things are always artistically blurred, as if a bad
photographer had shot a real photo.
Even PCB shops use absurd stock photos of "their" boards.
I wish my boards had traces that glow.
Actually, some recently did. We bought a gigantic power supply and >experimented with how well a big polyfuse can protect various width
outer and inner traces.

You're right. It does look like the Kaaba: ><https://cdn.britannica.com/43/156343-050-CD194769/pilgrims-Muslim-Kabah-Great-Mosque-of-Mecca.jpg>
It works something like a compass, where Muslim worshipers face in the >direction of the Mecca. That's probably functional if there was only
one Kaaba, but global proliferation of similar attractors might result
in some confusion. I had a sample of that in early college (about
1965) when the national anthem was played over the public address
system every morning before the start of classes. We were expected to
face the flag, which was rather awkward if we were inside a building
with no flags in sight. I would usually end up facing a blank wall or
a urinal.

There's a little more behind image defects and artifacts in
advertising photography. I wrote something about it in RBT >(rec.bicycling.tech) where an obvious PhotoShoped image included
mistakes intended to extend the time that a reader inspects the image
trying to determine why the image looks wrong. ><https://rec.bicycles.tech.narkive.com/sGdviHeE/bicycle-infrastucture#post8> ><https://rec.bicycles.tech.narkive.com/sGdviHeE/bicycle-infrastucture#post20>

You can probably see traces glow in your FLIR camera. I don't own an
IR camera (yet) so I use liquid crystal sheets. ><https://www.edmundoptics.com/f/temperature-sensitive-liquid-crystal-sheets/11878/>

We recently bought a few nice thermal imagers with clip-on close-up
lenses, about $700 total. I could post the details next week, if
anyone is interested.
