It may not minimize the difference in designs. Some people love SETs, some like ribbons, others only a uni-pivot will do. I think AI will allow for better, far more accurate analysis, and therefore a better output of a given design. Throw in improved materials, better machining, more efficiency, etc. and I think we will be astonished by what the next generation of audio sounds like. Just think how it may impact room acoustics, the biggest limiting factor in this hobby. It may even usher in a new paradigm of audio and we’ll look back at our systems as Model Ts. There will always be a place for the Model T, but it’s not something to drive to Tahoe in.
