John Lauer First AI PCB with Grok: clip 2, the board that wasn't Grok's 7d92f9e 6d ago
1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,400
Twenty-five minutes later, Grok reports a
finished board.

2
00:00:03,610 --> 00:00:11,950
Clean electrical and design rule checks,
all 62 pins matched, 4.98 V out, on a 28
by 20 mm board.

3
00:00:12,180 --> 00:00:15,950
But the numbers match our own buck
exactly, down to the silkscreen.

4
00:00:16,150 --> 00:00:18,250
So we ask where each value came from.

5
00:00:18,460 --> 00:00:21,750
Grok checks its own build trail and gives
a straight answer.

6
00:00:21,960 --> 00:00:23,450
It did not design this board.

7
00:00:23,640 --> 00:00:29,150
A copy of our KiCad molecule was already
on its shared computer, and it re-exported
that.

8
00:00:29,350 --> 00:00:38,750
So we ask again, from scratch: a new
folder, the TI datasheet, its own math,
its own placement and routing, and no
looking at the old design.

9
00:00:38,970 --> 00:00:40,920
Grok agrees, and starts over.
