Remove Ice from Power Lines

A very big power company in the northwest US had their workers climb power poles after an ice storm to shake the ice off of the lines. This was very dangerous for the workers, so the company searched for an easier and less dangerous to remove the ice from the lines. Remember, this power company has access to many resources.

ChatGPT fixated on chemical de-icing agents. It did not consider other resources. It didn’t even ask the human for other possible resources.

This is a true story. The power company used their fleet of helicopters to fly low over the power lines. The strong downdraft created by the helicopters shook the lines and, consequently, shook the ice off the lines.
