HUMAN vs AI AUDIO MIXING || Do the SONIBLE SMART PLUGINS make better mixing decisions than me?

You heard it right.. Paul Third is going up against the digital mixing revolution of audio engineering that is smart AI plugins!! The sonible smart comp and eq are audio plugins that use smart engines in order to maintain spectral balance which if used correctly should result in a balanced and transparent mix free from harshness and mud. The sonible plugins include grouping, sidechain ducking, frequency clashing, spectral compression, resonance suppression all at the click of a button.
But can a smart plugin make a better mix than an actual audio engineer? Thats what I'm going to try and find out...
In my mix I am using acustica audio brown, acustica magenta, noiseash ruletec, acustica titanium cl1b compressor and also oeksound soothe to reign back any eq overhyping, wavesfactory trackspacer for eq clashing and also some NEOLD big al tube saturation to smooth out any peaky harshness.
