optimizes reward functions while you sleep
You spend your days fighting sim-to-real gaps, tuning reward functions, and babysitting brittle neural networks on robotic arms. You are teaching your own replacement to juggle.
The one thing AI can't do
You can still articulate why the model converged on a local minimum by mistake.
Your enemy, your name, your date. Post it.
Step by step, from the first quiet change to Deprecation Day.
Week 4
Algorithms will now generate synthetic training environments faster than you can write boilerplate.
Month 6
Autonomous agents replace your manual tuning of learning rates and reward weightings.
Month 12
Sensors now filter and clean their own training data without human validation.
Month 18
Neural architecture search replaces your manual iteration of model designs.
Year 2 · D-Day
The system writes its own papers while you clear your desk.
What you cost, what the machine costs, and what you get on the way out.
