AI can speed up a lot of the manual labour needed to bring even an almost dead, 10-year-old device back to life. My Xiaomi Mi Max 2 (oxygen, MSM8953) was dead. With AI help and my own knowledge, I ported/rewrote the missing drivers, and it now runs Nura (postmarketOS) with working camera, torch, SIM, phone calls and SMS. Only the loudspeaker is still broken.

Everything is up for anyone who wants to install it, or to understand the changes and manually write the patches for mainline: https://github.com/sv1sjp/mi-max2-oxygen-msm8953-nura-drivers Testing, feedback and PRs welcome.

    “Idealism is not relevant to this discussion”

    proceeds to use purely idealist arguments

        You should maybe learn the meaning of words before trying to use them, idealism does not mean “having ideals”. Idealism is the counterpart to materialism, and has been explained to you in another comment. But sure, that’s one way to respond, I guess.

          “You should maybe learn the meaning of words before trying to use them”

          ironic, but no one expects logic, or honesty from aiholes

            I mean the distinction is something you learn in secondary school usually, I really can’t help you there, but you can keep throwing your strange little hissy fit if you want.
