I am in favor of manners and being respectful of my colleagues.

I have never been devoted to hardcore synth electronics. I just can’t do it all, don’t have the tools, don’t have a proper bench, don’t have the hands, the patience, the funds, the cad skills, the milling machines, or the plumbing. 
But much respect for all those who delve into these topics. I am an impetuous slob with no musical ability. I just love the process of creating playable electronic instruments, and I know all the high-level sound simulation software is rooted in real hardware I can dimly remember from my youth.  It is a joy to learn here, and as an American it fascinates me to see there are still places in the world where hobbies are normal and mutually appreciated. 
So no, I absolutely do not need to rattle on about AI. Not when a germanium transistor needs a home.
