  • Yes, even when the sensor fails.
    If the feedback from the thermistor is either nonsense or doesn’t change as expected even when the heater is on/off for a certain time, that should trigger a thermal runaway error and halt the printer. That’s basic decade plus old Marlin code.

    I’ve had two broken thermistors in my Ender 3. First one reported negative temperatures when it disconnected, so the printer immediately halted with a min temp error. The second reported something like 150C, which was in the acceptable range, except when it tried to heat it up and nothing changed for like 15 seconds, which triggered a halt.
    Again, decade old marlin code. Not rocket surgery.











  • The way it (most likely) works is that you give your inaccurate a prompt to an image generator, “shirt with draped collar”, and it generates you a bunch of images of shirts with weird collars. You then select the one that looks kinda like what you want, and that is fed to an image recognition AI: “find me product pictures that look like this shirt with this kind of a collar”.

    You can’t skip the AI because the whole point of it is that you don’t know what the thing you are looking for is called, so you can’t search for it. The no-ai version is the current search bar, you type in “shirt with collar” and start browsing items until you find it yourself.
