wow. text to #CAD. describe what you want and it outputs a 3D file that can be imported into a CAD program (and #3dprint it? #cnc?). i think this probably brings a lot of the experiences we’ve had with coding assistants to the world of machinists. i’m sure the output is iffy, but it dramatically lowers the effort for experimentation https://zoo.dev/blog/introducing-text-to-cad #llms #ai #3dprinting #blender3d

bignuts700,

@kellogh appears they took it down

@bignuts700 the page still loads for me. maybe try the demo? https://text-to-cad.zoo.dev/

@kellogh the examples given in the blog post are kind of the easy part of drafting a part. It might short run learning your cad software’s features like generating gears.

On the other hand, I’d have a hard time describing a complex part in language, but visually (or in code) it would be simple.

@linux_mclinuxface actually that would be a cool place for them to go from here — back-of-the-napkin diagram, plus maybe text, to CAD
