optimizes entire clusters to zero latency
You spend your days optimizing tensor kernels and debugging distributed training clusters. Soon, the machine will find its own optimal compute paths.
The one thing AI can't do
You can still hallucinate a novel architecture that isn't just a slightly larger transformer.
Your enemy, your name, your date. Post it.
Step by step, from the first quiet change to Deprecation Day.
Day 10
An agent summarizes new papers before you finish reading the abstracts.
Month 3
Vision models rewrite your CUDA kernels to find hardware-specific performance gains.
Month 6
Automated agents manage your training checkpoints and restart failed jobs autonomously.
Month 10
Neural architecture search replaces your manual model design process entirely.
Month 16 · D-Day
The system finishes your dissertation and publishes it before you wake up.
What you cost, what the machine costs, and what you get on the way out.
