Great. Sit on it and immediately have your balls zapped by radiation destroying your hopes of having kids.

Physics 101: photovoltaic cells absorb radiation to produce electricity, they don't emit it

Photovoltaic cells also aren't black bodies. They won't absorb 100% of the radiation they're going to reflect some of it.
Stop taking dumb internet comments seriously.

Can't wait for footage of someone sitting on this when it goes into thermal runaway.

Sitting on the photovoltaic cells blocks them from receiving light and charging the batteries. This is a retarded virtue signaling monstrosity that fails at all of its purposes. A canopy above the bench would provide shade for people and an unobstructed view of the sun for the PV cells, but yeah let's put them on the seating surface instead. Retards.

In South Korea there are no homeless people sleeping or sitting on the bench all day long. Most of the time that bench is empty.

Then why fuckin have it

So you think every park bench will be constantly filled to capacity?

If they're not, then why put solar USB chargers in them? If nobody is using them, then the concept is useless.

I'm sure a bench of that cost would have batteries to buffer the capacity.
