Since the AI assist is on all sites I tried to give a basic neurophysiology confused student question a try.

SO AI response

Okay, bonus points for finding one of my own answers on the site, but also I've written other answers that are probably more pertinent to the question asked (which, to be fair, I purposely made vague and unclear).

The other answer it drew from is...well, it's not good. I started out complaining about what the AI produced, but a lot of it seems down to this bad answer. It had 4 upvotes, but it got almost everything about the question wrong, down to "positive and negative charges repel each other". So, good use of AI for me I guess, pointing me to old answers on our sites that are in very bad need of repair, and I can't really blame the thing for getting something wrong that our own library has wrong, but I can wish it would have found one of the places we have it right instead!

Also I'm a bit suspicious of that bash script...

Edit: I asked it the same question, it gave me a new answer, re-using the bad answer as a reference but also a different, third one. And I got a new bash script to try out:

bash # Example of potassium ion movement K+ exits the cell through potassium channels, increasing negativity inside the cell. 

Third time it decided to try to rely on all three of the SE answers it previously found. It also gave me yet another bash script, this time earlier in the response:

bash # Example of potassium ion movement K+ out of cell -> increased negativity inside cell 

I would really prefer one of Yaakov's haikus.
