Hum... You think I was collecting virus in the system folders?

Some people claim to use them to plug generators into their homes when the lights go out.
But your generator should plug into some place before the main panel, and it's easy to put the right connector on that one place destined to it and where you shouldn't plug anything else. So it's people not prepared to use a generator, that want to use one anyway, and that have to be sure to disconnect it before the power comes back on or they will find the main use-case for the cable (AKA, the one on the meme).
It's actually very real machines, doing extremely well controlled chemical reactions, and no AI unless you count all computer software as AI (ok, processors have neural networks controlling them nowadays, so just "normal" amount of AI).
Some (many? most? IDK) gold sellers are scammers. They will sell you overvalued stuff and insist it's extra-valuable because of some feature they made up. They are the ones being loud on the web and making you hear about it all the time. So, if you hear an ad, and buy gold, you've probably fallen for a scam.
