Qwen3-32b did it pretty accurately it seems. Calculated heat loss over time going to ambient temp, offered to keep it at standby 100C for short breaks under 10 minutes. Shut down completely for longer breaks.

The correct answer is that it's always better to turn it off, though.

Unless you care about warmup time. LLMs have a habit of throwing in common-sense assumptions that you didn’t tell it to, so you have to be careful of that.

It’s not a bug. Outside of logic puzzles that’s a very good thing.

No, warmup time doesn't change anything, I can simply factor it in.

It is a bug, because I asked it precisely what I wanted, and it gave the wrong answer. It didn't say anything about warmup time, it was just wrong.
