The AI ran Blender and built my dental design tools

A dental worker had the AI run Blender on his own computer and write Python add-ons for his design work. It built a tool that turns a shell into a based model, one for basic aligners, an automated baseplate designer, and a custom impression tray designer. A fifth add-on, for copying dentures, did not come out as well.

How it works

  1. The AI runs Blender on his computer
  2. Writes a Python add-on that turns a shell into a based model
  3. Writes add-ons for basic aligners, an automated baseplate designer and a custom impression tray designer
  4. Writes a denture copying add-on that does not work as well

Why it’s worth knowing

The agent did not just write code in a chat. It ran the 3D software on his computer and built the tools his dental work runs on.
