These potentially disastrous instructions were among the top results when I searched for microwave rice cooker instructions on DuckDuckGo. DDG has since added the option of permanently excluding sites from search results, but I'm not sure that helps much with the proliferation of AI slop sites.
Screenshot from an AI-generated website called "Tastessence." Two items in a bullet list: [bullet] Now let the cooker stay on your kitchen counter for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, heat the microwave oven simultaneously. [bullet] Once the microwave is heated, place the cooker within the microwave for prescribed number of minutes. The time required for cooking varies with proportions of rice and the rice variety being used.

This is an older article I still link to all the time because it continues to be so relevant. electricliterature.com/taylor-swift...
Screenshot: "The bottom line is that artists’ rights are workers’ rights. You are not being progressive or radical by denying artists the right to control their own work. You are not helping the underprivileged by making it impossible for anyone who isn’t already rich and privileged to take up artistic careers. Your pirated Taylor Swift song isn’t feeding the poor. If you want to fight the power, maybe try hacking JP Morgan instead of pirating a vampire romance for your Kindle. In fact, the constant devaluation of art has been a huge boon for large corporations. There is no one happier that it is increasingly acceptable to pay nothing to photographers, artists, writers, and musicians. Doritos would love for you to crowd source their next TV ad and Apple is thrilled you’ll pay more for an iPod because you know you can steal the music you’ll listen to on it."
