I use AI as another tool in my work as a software architect for things I’m trying to learn about or understand. It usually gives me a good place to start.
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?
@mulveling I think you hit on something. AI is not yet capable of building out a highly decoupled, n-tier application. All of the work prompting the bot to give you what you want is time wasted that could be spent on actually building it yourself. If the day comes where even white collar, knowledge workers are out of jobs there has been talk of universal incomes but that doesn’t sound great to me. |
