You’re having a hard time distinguishing nerds and hippies.

Hippies live at the center of technology and humanities.

Nerds sit purely in technology.

I honestly don't get your point: perhaps your argument is based on some US-specific cultural reference that I am not aware of since I don't live in the USA.

> For example, many nerds care about 3D printing. On the other hand, my experiments (and the experiments of many nerds who I know) to let LLMs create files for 3D printing lead to horrendously lacking results.

Try again; astra has been driving fusion for me. I took a screenshot of a self watering cat grass bin on makerworld — not even the stl, a screen cap of one of the photos attached to the design — and it made me a parameterized version in one shot.

Its initial design was less than ideal for printability and it reworked the design correctly when asked to consider what it originally produced through the lens of printability.

Autodesk bundled an mcp server with fusion in the last few weeks and i expect things to get even better going forward.

I have no access to Astra, but with GPT 6.1 Sol, the results with respect to attempting to create STL, OBJ or even OpenSCAD files by using image references and a prompt were really bad.
