Ditto (except not being an AI detractor): I used Claude and Codex to reverse engineer the proprietary protocol for controlling Devialet amplifiers and then build an iOS controller app to replace the manufacturer's abandoned official app.
The whole thing took about a day, spread out over a week or so. Without AI, I wouldn't have even started the project, because I couldn't spare the time it would have taken.
- teepo 2mo agoi looked those up, that's pricey gear. is that a similar app abandonment like with Sonos deprecating and moving to newer protocols?
- andrewmg 2mo agoSort of. The company released a new model and deprecated its older ones. It’s still possible to control the amps with the (really neat) physical remote.
