- faangguyindia 7mo agoJust wait for sometime, there will be one. There are many geniuses on HN for tacking up challenge
- fainpul 7mo agoSo you think AI can do this – why exactly is a genius needed?
- faangguyindia 7mo agogenius is needed in pilot seat to guide AI :)
- WillAdams 7mo agoVibe coding only seems to work, insofar as it does when the training data includes multiple exemplars of solutions to a given problem. As noted elsethread, there's only one geometric kernel which is decently far along and opensource and it's over 1 million LOC --- I doubt it's being included in any training data, and I doubt that an LLM could regurgitate such a large project which would then compile w/o errors and then work as expected --- the number of tokens required to get such a project to an initial state is a marked hurdle as well.
- stackedinserter 7mo agoCorrect me if I'm wrong, kernel is already there, and it's decent enough. What's lacking is a good user interface to it.
- progbits 7mo agoFreeCAD is perfectly good user interface for opencascade. The problem is that as your geometry gets more complicated you start running into the kernel limitations.

- progbits 7mo agoIndeed. I would love for it to be true, but aside from opencascade^1 all the professional kernels are proprietary and not in the training set, so LLMs can't just regurgitate them. ^1: Which I really appreciate, but let's be real, it is far behind eg. parasolid.
