optimises power draw by 40% overnight
You design instruction sets and cache hierarchies. AI models now simulate, test, and layout transistor paths instantly.
The one thing AI can't do
You can still intuitively guess which RTL branch will cause a timing violation.
Your enemy, your name, your date. Post it.
Step by step, from the first quiet change to Deprecation Day.
Week 4
AI agent identifies and repairs all syntax errors in your RTL.
Month 6
The system suggests hardware layouts that outperform your manual routing.
Month 12
AI proposes better ISA tweaks without human intervention.
Month 16
Virtual agents run every edge case test case automatically.
Year 2 · D-Day
The foundry pushes the button on an entirely AI-generated chip.
