Is AI going to kill Hifi?


I work in the tech as a software dev which helps in affording my crazy Hifi hobby. But with in just a year, I have stopped coding and now AI does most of the coding. There are these systems called agentic AI that automates to a point where you don't really need much human interaction at all. 

It's getting pretty crazy. For the most part, anything a human does on the computer AI can do. And let me tell you... it's not a situation where it creates new jobs in place of old ones lost. Google has products for corporations that basically takes care of any need for anything. Ya, you might need a handful of people but not much more to be honest. 

I wonder, what is this going to do to the Hifi market? If AI eliminates all these white colored jobs, how will these Hifi shops and brands make it?

Thanks, HAL.....
An object lesson of misplaced trust, repeated in the Alien series with Mother, Ash, and all the other AI that have been directed to use the humans as needed...
I've mentioned elsewhere about 'Colossus: The Forbin Project' film (1970) where the US and Russian AI's team up and point our ICBM's at us as well as everyone else....as well as the Russian version does.

Does have a certain charm....since we as a species can't get our act together to save ourselves and the planet we're thrashing, a new POV from something that feels no hunger, pain, need of sleep.....

fElon Musk not long ago mentioned a super 'puter project he had in mind....

...named Colossus.....

Reality imitating Art is kinda disturbing, y'all....

Me?  Paranoid?  Nahhh....

We haven't failed to not screw things up yet.....๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿคจ

@mylogic ....Re *, thank you.. ;)  There's the oft chance our species, if we get a grip on ourselves being the crux of the problems facing us globally v. our 'advanced' NIMBY cultures, we might jerk ourselves from either a 'bad enough' to basic 'likely annihilation' scenario.....
...in a country that the average education of the population is the 6th grade...
...with a very questionable 'leader' at the top of our large-scale version of a pyramid scheme....

...let's argue about that...if not here, keep your handles and we'll invade X...

Finally got around to watching Jon Stewart when he aired Colberts' firing+Late Show cancelation....Love the back-up singers' response singing the lyrics, go see if haven't....

Hopeful, but still happy to be one year short of a 3/4's of a century on this quantum simulation of a planet with y'all.....sharing music musings....pestering with mine... *L* ๐Ÿ˜

A great snippet in a greater movie about the Scale of it all....
Favorite line from the BBC series "The Hitchhikers' Guide to the Galaxy", the galaxy news announcers' comment:

"For all of you on the galactic perimeter, keep banging those rocks together!"

Yup...

...and then there's the Lotus Eaters, thank you Homer.....๐Ÿ˜

Viewing the promos of the cruise ships brings to mind the Axiom of WALL-E, but glitzed out.  A floating Dizzyland, Vegas afloat the largest drink.

An exercise in how much sh*t you can make float?

Just another gaggle out to see them there feren places.....
Awhile back read how, if you wore a shirt referencing CA could let the locals give you a pass....that's likely over...in both places...๐Ÿ˜ฃ

Ultimately, we're all visitors for a span, then gone back to what we were.
And the 'theme park' seems destined for a major remodel on all the rides, the food stands, and the HVAC...water....sewage....

...and all that microplastic.....like syrup.....

...tourists...
