optimizes hardware kinematics via background telemetry
You spend your days debugging post-deployment kinematic errors, managing ROS2 middleware, and configuring path-planning parameters. You are essentially teaching your successor how to move.
The one thing AI can't do
You can still physically distinguish between a software bug and a jammed sensor housing.
Your enemy, your name, your date. Post it.
Step by step, from the first quiet change to Deprecation Day.
Week 2
Automated agents ingest all rviz logs to identify recurring kinematic failure patterns.
Month 4
PID gain tuning is now handled by iterative feedback loops without human intervention.
Month 8
Custom middleware layers are replaced by vendor-locked self-correcting neural control networks.
Month 14
Cloud-based vision models calibrate themselves using real-time spatial error telemetry from the floor.
Month 19 · D-Day
The system achieves full autonomy; your credentials are revoked before you even clock in.
What you cost, what the machine costs, and what you get on the way out.
