I was very excited when I saw the title. Text-to-CAD is something that I have had in mind for a while now - I think it could be a really cool use of transformers. Unfortunately, as also mentioned by dang, for a Show HN I was a bit disappointed to not be able to try it out, but only to 'book a demo'. Nevertheless, I have a couple of questions 1. Is this proper parametric modeling (like Fusion 360, Inventor, FreeCAD etc.) or does it just generate stls? 2. Can you elaborate a bit on the training process? In particular how did you go about gathering/constructing training data? I would not imagine there are many datasets of text and model pairs available
