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?

They just need to be sure to teach it Isaac Asimov's "Three Laws of Robotics"...

Or have a good "off" switch available. 

@mylogic We are a long ways from the 1970s. Take a look at this and the capabilities of current A.I. in making derivative music based on nearly every piece of music created by humans. And it will only get better and better. 

Don’t misunderstand me. I don’t like it one bit, but in a world where record executives and producers can conjure up music without the need of some prima donna musician complaining all the way, well, more of this stuff is on the way. 

Already they say Spotify is filling out playlists with this A.I. generated stuff and not telling anyone it isn’t "real".
