Imagine how bad it’ll get with generative AI only getting better. Think about someone like Linus Tech Tips getting hacked and an AI video getting uploaded of him telling his users to go sign up for a chance to win some $5000 PC “we’re giving 500 away!” and that site which won’t even have to look like anything other than “someMadeUpBrand.com/giveaway/linus”. It’s crazy to even think about how many people would fall for that shit. If the AI is good enough I might fall for it and I’m pretty damn good at catching it (for now).

Fire hazard being messing something up by tinkering with the PSU. It’s not worth it over something that can be replaced for so little money. And I think it’s just more about swap out the most likely failing component (the PSU) and see if the problem goes away. If it doesn’t then you know it wasn’t the PSU.

Just get a PSU from the store and test it on your. It’ll tell you very quickly without risking a potential fire hazard.
