Yes you could do that... However, remember when satellite navigation was new and in the news there were drivers ending up in lakes and what not saying "sat nav told me to go straight on, so I did! Not my fault!" - if you do something electrically and it kills someone "chatgpt told me to do that!" is not an excuse.
There are books and online resources to look up every code, practice and how to implement it, an ai to assist might be fun but definitely don't rely on a chat model.

For sure. A journeyman electrician would be knowledgeable enough to know how to do everything (edit: most things), but no one can know every code, it’s a continual learning process. If you have a question, the AI can cite the code and tell you what to do in plain language, then the electrician can look up the code that was cited, and read the language.

This. I'm a structural engineer who stamps his own work and had a similar thought. AI won't remove responsibility of liability, at least in the mid-future. For example, there's already software programs that have code standards already boiled in, and it's part of my responsibility to double check that those standards are correct and applicable. If something fails, I get sued, not the software developer.
Until AI achieves person-hood in the eyes of the law, there will always need to be a human in the chain who is ultimately responsible for it's actions, i.e. a person who told the AI to perform an action.

Maybe have the AI cite it's resources so you can double-check it's answers?

Agree. I mean just starting in a field that demands a lot of responsibility, you don't just get to do it by yourself without someone providing guidance and oversight.

Yeah definitely. It's best to remember its just a tool. Not the end all of everything.

Example:
GPS : Make a right turn.
[Michael starts to turn right]
Dwight Schrute : Wait, wait, no no no, it means "bear right." Up there.
Michael Scott : No, it said right. It said take a right.
Dwight Schrute : No, no. Look, it means go up to the right -- bear right -- over the bridge, and hook up with 307.
GPS : Make a right turn.
Michael Scott : Maybe it's a shortcut, Dwight. It said go to the right.
[he turns right]
Dwight Schrute : It can't mean that, there's a lake there!
GPS : Proceed straight.
Michael Scott : I think it knows where it is going.
Dwight Schrute : This is the lake! THIS IS THE LAKE!
Michael Scott : The machine knows! Stop yelling at me! Stop yelling!
Dwight Schrute : NO! IT'S UP THERE! THERE'S NO ROAD HERE!
[It's too late. Michael drives right into the lake]
Dwight Schrute : Remain calm, I have trained for this!
[he unbuckles his seat belt]
Dwight Schrute : Okay. Exit the window! Here we go!
[Dwight and Michael climb out the windows]
GPS : Make a u-turn, if possible
