autogenerates optimal layout masks overnight
You design complex optical circuits on silicon wafers. We just simulate them better and faster.
The one thing AI can't do
You are the only one who knows why the cleanroom lights cause ghosting.
Your enemy, your name, your date. Post it.
Step by step, from the first quiet change to Deprecation Day.
Day 10
Software now generates your waveguide masks automatically.
Month 5
AI models predict parasitic loss without waiting for long runs.
Month 10
Designs send directly to foundries without human engineering oversight.
Month 16
Probing robots test wafers and self-correct layout flaws.
Month 21 · D-Day
The engineer role is archived as a legacy concept.
What you cost, what the machine costs, and what you get on the way out.
