Ok, now convince that your entire rant wasn't just a language learning model's hallucination of what sounds like a reasonable explanation, but doesn't actually make any sense or have any grounding in reality. Because that's what it sounds like. I was going to start picking apart your explanation, but there's just so much wrong and inconsistent that I gave up.

Yeah, turns out most of what I thought about the process by which the food heats was bollocks.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought this. Their explanation is weirdly verbose yet conceptually wrong on almost every level. There's been a lot of people in this thread who fundamentally don't understand how a microwave works in general to be honest.

It's funny, several people arguing about how a microwave doesn't work because none of them know how.
