We could defo update our readme! What do you think of this?: https://x.com/aaronli/status/2064876123109089742?s=20

Fable 5 in our Fusion Extension.
This is still a toy.
The design is non-manufacturable and doesn't have any actual intent baked into it let alone communicated. If you can accurately capture intent and purpose encoded into a design and also generate relevant GD&T that might be a good start.
not to say this isn't cool, but it's about as useful as having claude generate a JavaScript illustration of how a v8 works and then expecting someone to manufacturer an engine from that
For anyone doing CAD at a professional level (ie not 3d printed trinkets), the important parts are the physical parameters and tolerances designed into the model. For example I suspect your crankshaft would rip itself apart at engine speeds, not to mention all the plumbing, oil and coolant delivery, and auxiliary pumps and belts are missing
I see cams intersecting eachother and still nothing that is actually ready to be manufactured or even looks like a design that has had any thought put into it. It's the CAD equivalent of idle doodling.
Do you have a single person on your team that's actually a mechanical engineer with practical industry experience?
Yes and we have a number of mechanical engineers using our extensions! AI in CAD is defo a WIP but when you trace the progress it's not too hard to envisage what the future will look like.
For the Fusion demo we intentionally didn't include the block or any accessories in the visualization as we wanted demonstrate Adam's ability to reason through the mechanical workings of an engine, like how the cams push the valves or the way the the crankshaft drives the connecting rods.
