autogenerates regression suites for every silicon revision
You write test programs to exercise silicon and diagnose failures. The machine does this while you sleep.
The one thing AI can't do
You are the only one who can explain why the test fixture keeps smoking.
Your enemy, your name, your date. Post it.
Step by step, from the first quiet change to Deprecation Day.
Week 4
AI starts flagging test failures faster than your manual review.
Month 5
Generative models begin writing the standard test vectors for you.
Month 10
Remote sensors detect socket wear before you even notice.
Month 15
Algorithms predict failure patterns across the entire production lot.
Month 19 · D-Day
The machine runs the entire validation suite without human intervention.
What you cost, what the machine costs, and what you get on the way out.
