I’ve tried using deepseek (first time I’ve ever used an LLM, so maybe I’m being dumb) to help me a little with designing some circuit because my reference book was leaving out a LOT of crucial information.

The results have been … subpar. The model seems to be making quite elementary mistakes, like leaving floating components with missing connections.

I’m honestly kinda disappointed. Maybe this is a weak area for it. I’ve probably had to tell deepseek more about designing the circuit in question than it has told me.

Edit: I realised I was just being dumb, since LLMs aren’t designed for this task.

    What sort of output are you asking for? Is the AI giving you an image, or some sort of SPICE config, or something else?

    I asked it for a SPICE model, but the model was generating diagrams with it as well to explain things. I didn’t really ask for these, but seeing the mistakes was interesting.

    I’m not sure which Lemmy client you’re using, but I’m using Boost and doing a quick search I see the following communities :

    Yeah I’ll look at these communities. I’ve never seen that instance before.
