A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

Laittakaa meemejä tänne.

It looks like he was trying to prove that using AI to make things is bad.
I get that, but you could have come to the same conclusion just by looking at the schematics. You don’t need to actually have the thing fabricated to make that point.
I get it as well, but some people need something a bit more solid to realise just how stupid something is. I haven't looked at circuits since high school, but if I see something that just straight up doesn't work, that's undeniable.
Then the point they were trying to make wouldn't be as strong.
I guess the idea was to get more social media attention this way.
He could have received the same board by having an intern or high school electronics student design it with no oversight.
He also could have sent the result to another AI with the prompt “point out all the errors in this design and tell me if we should have it printed”.
This was just a dumb “hur hur, AI bad stunt”
An unsupervised high school electronics student could easily design a PCB to power a LED via USB power. It's an extremely easy task to accomplish, which is why it was picked.
Even someone with no training would put the USB port in a better position.
