"Your smart fridge has no secrets now that code is free."

LLMs have crashed the cost of reverse-engineering undocumented APIs, turning grueling manual tasks into trivial prompts. This shift makes it economically viable to automate obscure hardware that was previously ignored due to high maintenance and low ROI. The 'unit cost' of software development is hitting zero for complex, niche hobbyist projects.
