AI generated artifacts increase verification debt faster than they create value

AI has the power to unlock one-shotting hardware development

@rossiadam Is the testing infrastructure capex on pace with production?

[Greg Berberian @arctosden]

@jportukalian Curious how you're approaching materials and manufacturing on the smaller dishes to hit Ka-band accuracy while scaling?

[Greg Berberian @arctosden]

@thekitze Fable was decent but wasn’t getting what I wanted with domain availability. Had it generate a prompt I fed to Sol and I had the name in 1 run

[Greg Berberian @arctosden]

@ethanblagg @_dynamo_air McMaster bags are wrapping paper for hardware guys. Best feeling

[Greg Berberian @arctosden]

@AutismCapital Could also be due to the rise of e-bikes. Lower cost and much more fun for teens

[Greg Berberian @arctosden]

@tymofii Thanks, I'll check it out. Any examples or templates you’ve found useful for turning a high-level system vision into that kind of precise prompt? What does the precise spec stack look like, and what should it cover?

[Greg Berberian @arctosden]

What are the best resources to learn how to engineer software with AI as a native hardware engineer? Been struggling to capture my vision properly in context to prevent AI slop

[Greg Berberian @arctosden]

@unusual_whales @grok what percentage of dollars in the economy is tech?

[Greg Berberian @arctosden]

@Kekius_Sage This is awesome. Is it fairly rugged? Do you worry about it getting damaged from daily phone use?

[Greg Berberian @arctosden]

@jimbelosic Absolutely. Have had parts destroyed by improper packaging - I'm willing to absorb higher cost for packaging that burns down carrier risk. Been very happy with SCS part quality and presentation🚀

@claudeai @grok Why does Anthropic keep extending Fable 5 access as frontier models drop and users push back on usage credits? What's really going on and what's the likely end state?

[Greg Berberian @arctosden]

@Xaraphim I imagine usage will crater once users get API pricing.

I'm hoping open source or a frontier lab (betting on Grok) will subsidize hard and slash cost/token to win share. People will just go wherever the value per token is best.

I'm well aware of the criticality of ASML's technology and its Dutch ownership, having lived in the Netherlands and operated these machines.

I am simply highlighting the fact that ASML acquired a US-based company for its EUV light generation technology. Without that tech there is no EUV light for lithography. It's a global effort.

[Greg Berberian @arctosden]

Where the exploded view breaks down is attempting to represent a 3D artifact in 2D in a configuration that never exists in reality. The real move is to have a digital CAD model for everyone touching the hardware on a lightweight viewer designed to communicate parts and build order

[Greg Berberian @arctosden]

@causaliteit001 @LinusEkenstam I worked at Cymer/ASML in San Diego and Veldhoven. Cymer developed the core EUV light source technology that ASML bought to accelerate EUV lithography. It's a global effort and supply chain.
