OP
The engineers have already figured this out.
Yes, even now with current AI technology, the simple fact is that there is no documented evidence that AI increases failure of the deco functions of a computer. Just doesn't happen. If AI fails, the computer just keeps chugging along. If this were a "real" issue and not a mental exercise, the horror stories and lawsuits would have become legendary by now.
Also, AI "failure" is not an actual computer issue but refers to the loss of connection between the pressure sensor/transmitter and the computer. This means loss of the gas reading, nothing more. Most connection drops are temporary and the computer picks up the pressure reading after a short time (personally, I have never had the connection drop). This does not affect the deco calculations.
It might affect the remaining gas time calculations, but, again, not the deco calculations. However, if you are just using the computer as a more convenient pressure readout, then those gas calculations don't matter.
All of this assumes, of course, that you dive with a back-up SPG (which I do).
