rewrites your assembly bottlenecks overnight
You write low-level code to optimize parallel compute kernels for specific hardware architectures. You suffer daily under memory bandwidth constraints and hardware-specific latency bottlenecks.
The one thing AI can't do
You can still intuit exactly why the warp divergence is crashing the entire cluster.
Your enemy, your name, your date. Post it.
Step by step, from the first quiet change to Deprecation Day.
Day 9
AI begins scanning your entire codebase for common performance patterns.
Month 4
The compiler learns to auto-vectorize better than your hand-tuned loops.
Month 9
New models map kernels directly to hardware without human guidance.
Month 14
Robotic clusters run millions of iterations to find perfect performance.
Month 18 · D-Day
Your manual optimization scripts are deleted to save storage space.
What you cost, what the machine costs, and what you get on the way out.
