The AI fixed my soundbar. Ten seconds and the sound was back.

He plugged in a soundbar over S/PDIF and got no sound, and searching online did not help. He asked the AI to fix it, and 10 seconds later the problem was diagnosed, the output was enabled and renamed, and it worked.

How it works

  1. Plugs in a soundbar over S/PDIF and gets no sound
  2. Searches online with no luck
  3. Asks the AI to fix it
  4. The AI diagnoses the problem, enables the output, and renames it

Why it’s worth knowing

Searching online had no answer, but the AI changed the settings on his own computer and the sound worked 10 seconds later.
