Funny that you say that. Just yesterday I was playing with the thought of using SDFs. I asked ChatGPT how, given a SDF, I could implement erosion followed by dilation (by the same amount), and ChatGPT said that the entire operation is the identity. Here the LLM failed to see that the erosion step could delete parts of the design. Anyway, it was interesting to see an area where LLMs clearly have no idea what they're talking about.

I've had very poor results trying to reason about geometry with chatgpt (to the point where it hallucinated that a line can intersect a sphere 3 times...) but it would be interesting to have a feedback loop from code to image. I just found out about build123d as a newer variety of cadquery and looking forward to trying an LLM out with it.
