It's a pity AI is not genius and sometime or always it can't resolve a problem.

1. First I see

https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/362634-nootedgreenkext-is-on-air-its-a-long-long-road-to-complete/

The last message "The end of the road". Very pity!

 

2. I was asking Qwen.ai How to compile Wine 11 to have an 32-bit support in macOS? After some attempts he said it is impossible.

Quote

К сожалению, в открытых исходниках Wine/CrossOver на macOS это нерешаемо без проприетарных компонентов CodeWeavers.

But no. I made it with my own brain!

Вы проделали огромную работу, и ваш рецепт — один из немногих, кто реально позволяет запускать 32-битные Windows-приложения на macOS Sequoia без CrossOver.

 

3. VoodooHDA is still not finished. It will be separate story.

 

Have I any success? Only in small parts...

It will depend on how the question was asked. All AIs are configured by default to "please you". And with this concept, the further you progress in the project, the more "idiotic" they become.  :D

But when you master your subject and ask them to act as a tool, then they can be useful.

Making VoodooHDA with AI.

Prehistory.

First version was made by Fassl on the base of FreeBSD sources. It was last version 0.2.2.

Than we, Slice and AutumnRain, began own project based on Fassl's project and made repository on sourceforge.net. We begin from version 0.2.3 and than exclude zero => 2.3.1.

Many users on forums made his contributions into the project. 

Zenith432 made the most important contribution. Version 2.8.

I was left alone and moved the project on GitHub. After some improvements the version became 3.0.5 Traditional.

 

New era with AI.

New developer, rdmitry0911 with a help of Claude AI decided to remake VoodooHDA so that it works with tuning like AppleALC. Users should choose codec-id and ths is the whole tuning. Remind that traditional version make autotuning with a user possibility to change something. It was a complex method what to do to make all outputs and all inputs working as you want. Version 3.1.2. Some new updates 3.1.x-3.2.x expose a bug: Headphone was not working... Tens questions to AI and no result. We decided to revert to 3.1.2.

There was a AI fault #1.

Than I ask him to make AMD HDMI audio working as never before. Version begins from 3.3.0 and success! 3.3.4 works for many users. But not for all.

In my case AMD RX570 + TV Samsung I have bad sound. Two months asking Claude and than Qwen and Deepseek didn't lead to result. This is a fault #2.

In the version 3.3.5 we found new bug. In Russian ДНД. It means after switching LineOut->HeadPhone->LineOut sound was escaped at all. This is a fault #3. AI can't explain why version 3.3.5 has this bug while 3.0.5 no. I resolved this bug by rolling back again and begin new version based on version 3.3.3 which has no such bug.

I wanted to make autodetect of connected TV. The work is not finished yet because the AI can't do this. This is the fault #4. But I hope to make it by myself.

 

I will not discuss MaLdOn's version 4.x because it is not my work.

I'm working on voodoo for full combo-jack and other things but it's just for fun and to improve a little on what's already good and honestly, audio is really complicated!... fry our brains.

IMHO, the human brain is a mystery—the most complex organ with the most intricate mechanisms in the universe. The reason AI still can't compete with our brain is simply due to our power of reasoning and our ability to find solutions to the problems we are presented with. This ability was perfected over millions of years, whereas AI has only been around for about 20 years or so.

The speed at which AI can operate is amazing, and the way it improves is truly stunning. But there is a caveat: the reasoning and thinking process of AI is completely based on our knowledge and the data we give it. It's not perfect, it's not complete, and it's still evolving.

As a developer, you have a wealth of experience doing what you do; no AI model can compete with what your brain can achieve just yet. It is you who controls the AI, not the other way around (yet!).

AI still has a long way to go, but using tools to solve our problems and make things easier is one of our most amazing traits. AI is a great tool for a lot of tasks, but the human thought process is our most distinctive ability—the one that separates us from any other species on Earth (though I'm not sure about the entire universe!).

Working with AI makes me feel like I have a great team of programmers and coders at my disposal, but we are still the ones who must point them in the right direction. Sometimes, AI simply lacks the vision and skills to find the correct solution.

When I want AI to do something for me, it's never as easy as saying, "Create an app that does this or that." It requires giving it specific, detailed instructions, reviewing the output over and over, and debugging and testing until I get the results I want. Sometimes, the output still isn't what I looked for—so I completely agree with you there.

But what amazes me is how rapidly AI is evolving. When I first started using it, it genuinely felt like my early days of learning how to work with computers. It was, and still is, incredibly exciting. Is it perfect? No. Is it fun? Yes! Do I need to learn a new language? Yes—I need to learn how to tell the AI exactly what I want and how to direct it to get the results I'm looking for.

Many giant companies use AI to write their code, but our supervision and problem-solving abilities remain the most critical part of the equation.
