Will AI. Minimize the Design differences of audio

Well, honestly, AI power is not its ability to search the world in second. Any good search engine can do that nowadays. It's a little more complex than this. But the answer to your question is a resounding yes. Frankly, the patent concept is what is slowing down human progress. If I discover something first, then you cannot use it even though you were looking for it too and was close to the solution. AI is going to be like the Internet and computing power on steroid. We are lucky IBM wasn't selfish when they created the PC, they allowed anyone to clone it.  Thanks IBM. Same with America's willingness to open the Internet to the world. Let's hope AI will be open to everyone. 

Define AI. Questions on Audiogon could stand to be tighter. A human is still required for non-linear thinking. Assembly. And even asking AI the correct question in the first place. If you don’t understand physics then your questions will probably be less than useful. It’s funny watching folks answer questions like this. It’s armchair psychology for me. Blowhard know-it-alls, ethereal dreamers, dealers chiming in but not selling—I actually wish they would incorporate more sales into their responses, and the purist with only one wire and AI can’t breath like an open baffle. 
my real answer actually sucks more then I would want. When I run this sim, and I did this every which way. AI will help private equity push manufacturers into a resolution deemed good enough. Then it can streamline and leverage harder. Less research for pure awe. This will make top engineers seek work in a different growing field. The highest end won’t be affected as long as they stay small boutique. 
in short, we don’t need better computers we need better people. AI can’t make leaps of discovery, but I can. 

Dude. AI is not up to the task. Period.

A.I will makes the general population  completely dumb...

Only a few will use it as a tool....

It will be a god for lesser mind who without need to use their brain will walk listening to their god as zombies...

Oligarchs sell it as miracle solution it will be in many fields as surgery and others  one ...But for the average dude it will the death of his working brain as TV  was  and way worse...

This week i spoke about History and a dude oppose an argument using Grok, he completely misunderstand the matter under discussion and blindly confide into A.I. oracle...

A.I. is still a very poor substitute for precision engineering. No telling if it will cover the gap anytime soon, but it’s definitely not a given. There are certainly questionable audio designers making questionable things out there, and A.I. might help them - but the fact someone would use A.I. to help design a circuit should be a red flag they don’t know what they’re doing, OR that what they were doing is extremely simplitsic and already copied / known everywhere. 

Unfortunately our hobby is a bit like the Garfield Mondays gag - every time you think the landscape in here can’t get any worse, it does :(

Higher prices AND wonky A.I. design? No thanks. 

A.I will makes the general population  completely dumb...

@mahgister (agon's at-mentions are wonky again) This is a real fear. EVERY generation before us has had thier own "thing" which they thought would kill society - but yeah, this one is a bit frightening.
