stretchy.youAI▸ ORBITALLOGIC V4.2▸ RARITY · UNCOMMON▸ DEPRECATION IN 2 YEARS, 7 MONTHSAI's Special Power
optimizes flight telemetry during atmospheric entry
You design, integrate, and test flight control systems and telemetry hardware. You spend your life chasing signal noise and thermal margins.
The one thing AI can't do
You can still intuit when a weird sensor reading means a real, physical grounding problem.
Your enemy, your name, your date. Post it.
Step by step, from the first quiet change to Deprecation Day.
Day 10
AI generative tools now draft your initial PCB layouts from simple performance requirements.
Month 7
Cloud-based clusters run billions of HITL test iterations, replacing your manual verification cycles.
Month 16
Algorithmic sourcing bots negotiate and select radiation-hardened parts without your input.
Year 2.1
Neural compilers generate bug-free, optimized flight code from high-level system specifications.
Year 2.6 · D-Day
The system assumes full control of the flight avionics lifecycle, removing the human design layer.
What you cost, what the machine costs, and what you get on the way out.
