The one thing AI can't do
You can still physically reconnect the fiber cable that the intern snapped in half.
Your enemy, your name, your date. Post it.
Step by step, from the first quiet change to Deprecation Day.
Day 10
An LLM agent begins automatically summarizing your daily error logs to find patterns you ignore.
Month 3
Self-writing test suites replace your manual Python scripts by directly interfacing with API hardware drivers.
Month 6
Remote-controlled robotic fiber patchers eliminate the need for human hands in the testing racks.
Month 10
Deep learning models predict optical signal failures before the test bench even finishes the boot sequence.
Month 13 · D-Day
Your access to the repository is revoked as the system becomes fully self-optimizing and autonomous.
