splat.you▸ ACADEMIABOT PRO V9▸ RARITY · UNCOMMON▸ DEPRECATION IN 2 YEARS, 2 MONTHSAI's Special Power
generates perfect datasets from failing experiments
You spend years training custom neural nets to simulate physical systems and chasing rare photonics hardware results.
The one thing AI can't do
You can still intuit when the experimental hardware is lying to you.
Your enemy, your name, your date. Post it.
Step by step, from the first quiet change to Deprecation Day.
Day 9
AI models scan every relevant paper to synthesize your findings faster.
Month 3
Smart software writes funding proposals better than your exhausted advisor.
Month 10
Neural solvers predict material interactions without needing lab hardware.
Month 17
Sensors stream directly into models, bypassing your manual cleaning.
Year 2.2 · D-Day
Your lab is fully autonomous; you are now free to do something else.
What you cost, what the machine costs, and what you get on the way out.
