optimises board density while you sleep
You draft circuit schematics, layout printed circuit boards, and write technical specs. Then you debug prototypes in labs.
The one thing AI can't do
You can physically feel if a board is overheating before the sensor catches it.
Your enemy, your name, your date. Post it.
Step by step, from the first quiet change to Deprecation Day.
Week 4
Software models pull optimal footprints and components automatically.
Month 5
Algorithms handle the tedious task of board trace routing.
Month 10
The machine parses your design to write all technical manuals.
Month 15
Software testing replaces physical debugging of early prototypes.
Month 21 · D-Day
The system designs and validates the entire board without human help.
