Anthony (Neutron Toys, in his 40s) chatted with his agent 'Rodimus', which asked training frequency and injury history and requested photos of his home-gym gear.

GLM and the AI redesigned an interior 3D-print part to print in vase mode; the new part is better than the human-designed part he took from the internet.
