The AI modelled the watch crystal for a mod nobody had done before, in days not months

A man wanted to mod a Casio watch with a custom crystal and screen that had not been done before, and needed a 3D model of the crystal for prototyping. The AI got the specs mostly right and built the model inside a custom 3D program the AI had made for him, and the project was done in a few days instead of the months it would have taken before.

How it works

  1. He asks the AI for the crystal specs and a 3D model
  2. The AI gets the specs mostly correct
  3. It builds the model in a custom 3D program it had made for him
  4. He works through the modification with AI’s help and finishes the project in a few days

Why it’s worth knowing

The model was built inside a modelling program the same agent had created for him earlier.
