optimizes timing paths before breakfast
You route complex metal layers and optimize timing across multi-million transistor dies. You are basically a human path-finder.
The one thing AI can't do
You can sense when the synthesis tool is lying about timing closure.
Your enemy, your name, your date. Post it.
Step by step, from the first quiet change to Deprecation Day.
Week 4
Simple Python scripts start handling routine floorplan adjustments for you.
Month 5
AI models flag design rule errors before you even click save.
Month 10
Machine agents fully handle metal layer routing and signal integrity.
Month 15
Autonomous clusters replace the manual timing closure and synthesis work.
Month 21 · D-Day
The server room no longer requires a human to monitor logic paths.
