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?

 "AI isn’t the end of civilization. Unscrupulous people using AI is the end of civilization." 

 At no point throughout the History of Humankind,  then, now or going forward, has there ever been a shortage of ’unscrupulous people’.

And now, they'll have the free and increasingly available assistance of ’AI’ unscrupulousness to pad the numbers.
