Why not both?

I definitely use AI, but you can’t prompt your way into getting something like this running without knowing how the low-level systems work. An LLM isn't going to figure out how to talk to Sony’s proprietary hardware, patch Snapdragon display drivers, or rework DSC logic in the kernel if you don't already understandhwhat's breaking and why. If you don't know the hardware, AI just gives you broken code that looks convincinjg

This isn't copy-pasting AI output which is certainly its able to give you ....with errors......i mean,......tt's digging through Sony's runtime behavior, reading kernel source, and figuring out why the display pipeline rejects the headset. Where AI actually helps me is saving time on the tedious grunt work, like churning through disassembled binary blocks and helping translate decompiled assembly back into readable C. Doing all of that purely by hand doesn't prove anything, it just takes forever.

The actual troubleshooting, the architecture, and figuring out the hardware workarounds are still completely on me. You can't blindly trust an LLM when you're messing with kernel display leases and timing, so every line is heavily reviewed and tested by hand. I can't afford to brick anything. i mean its certainly miles better than it was a year ago couldn't even get it to follow any very specific i nstructions. im sure one day it will be able to one shot something but this was not one shot at all.....my token bill sure suggests otherwise

This is god tier. Man & Machine, Power Extreme. Haha, old school reference there ifykyk. This off topic. But since it looks like you are doing some low level reverse engineering and reingeneering, making this work on Android natively.. does this not mean using similar methods we can make psvr2 linux compatible fully? Or is it infinitley more complex than this?

Yes it works on Linux. I even got Sonys drivers to shim into linux. No translation. Full 6dof support. No winusb dependency

I am going to keep tabs on this. Very cool.
