SUMMARY
A self-diagnosis and repair system for machines can theoretically identify impending faults and assist users in rectifying issues in real-time. The discussion highlights examples such as using pressurized air to clear carburetor jets and organic chemicals for cleaning spark plugs. While the concept is feasible, the implementation may not be cost-effective due to the complexity and expense of developing such advanced systems, including those that can bypass flaws in their own logic circuitry through redundancy.
