In my last post before Christmas, I explored whether artificial intelligence could assist me in repairing some broken CB radios I had lying around. At the time, I was optimistic that AI could help streamline the troubleshooting process and provide insights that might save me time and effort.
After spending about a week working on the project, I can say that while AI was helpful in certain aspects—like providing theoretical guidance and explanations—it ultimately did not lead to a successful repair. The process turned out to be more complex and required hands-on diagnostics and testing that AI couldn’t fully replicate or guide me through.
Since that initial burst of activity, I haven’t had much time to touch my radios or revisit the project. Life has kept me busy with other priorities, and those broken CB radios are still sitting there, waiting for another attempt. The experience was a good reminder that while AI can be a powerful tool, it has its limitations, especially when it comes to intricate, hands-on repairs requiring specialized tools and expertise.
For now, the radios remain a work in progress, and I hope to get back to them soon. If and when I do, I’ll be sure to share any new insights or successes here on cbradioshack.com. Stay tuned!
