verifies logic gates using exhaustive state traversal
You write compilers, debug chip architecture simulators, and apply formal verification to prove hardware logic doesn't crash.
The one thing AI can't do
You can still explain why the hardware simulation failed at 3 a.m. to a human.
Your enemy, your name, your date. Post it.
Step by step, from the first quiet change to Deprecation Day.
Day 10
AI models ingest all legacy architecture docs to answer developer queries.
Month 6
Formal solvers begin writing the safety properties you currently struggle with.
Month 12
Machine learning agents rewrite your toolchains for better instruction throughput.
Month 16
The system simulates all edge cases without needing manual test suites.
Year 2 · D-Day
The architecture is fully self-designing and self-verifying, rendering you redundant.
What you cost, what the machine costs, and what you get on the way out.
