> I just don’t seem to have any problems that AI could solve in my personal life.

My microwave handle broke. I looked up the part needed to re-attach it; it's a a tiny piece of plastic. $30 each, and I need two of them, so $60.

So I grabbed photos of the part from online, which showed it against a 1inch square grid. I gave the photos to ChatGPT, told it the grid size, and asked it to make a 3D model.

It did it. I made a test print. It works perfectly.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I guess for me, it's been partly a matter of trying to unblind myself to problems I've grown accustomed to solving in a certain way.
