Jevons paradox in action. Was talking about this with our lawyers last week, they said they’re spending more time cleaning up “Claude agreements” then they would have spent writing them in the first place.
AI in the hands of professionals is a super power. Everyone else it just makes over-confident that they can do a job they’ve never studied…
Couldn’t agree more, love the team at Diode, but I’ll put in a shameless plug for Collin and Myself over here @ZenodeAI who are EEs to the core and building the tool we wish we had. Admittedly, it’s not “cursor for electronics”, but “can you please go read all these datasheets and tell me which is most likely to have X” 😬
@clear_graphics We’re using Axiforma, because we needed a font that worked well in text-dense mediums (we have to communicate a lot of specs/etc all in a table). I’m not in love with it though, is there a better font you’d recommend?
Finding replacement components for PCBs is a wildly manual and inefficient process, and a weekly pain point during the supply shortages of the pandemic. Two months into the Straight of Hormuz closure, some of those same shortages are beginning to show again, which is why the Zenode team has grinded nights and weekends for weeks to offer an AI powered Alts tool for EEs.
Testers have told us the tool is cutting what used to take 6-10 hours of research to find a single candidate down to 10 minutes or less, and identifying potential options that never turned up in their manual research process. , and one proclaimed “I look forward to never cross referencing another component manually again”.
I’ve been working on this with Collin Stoner for 2.5 years, and this truly feels like a “Rubicon” moment for PCB design, where the old, painful ways of doing things fall by the wayside to be replaced by new technology.
Please try it out, share with your EE friends who are feeling this pain, and let us know what you think. 🔌🚀
@lucas_crupi@loombotic Dude, the last company I joined I made them put in writing “Brandon will not have to make custom wiring harnesses”. I still ended up making them, cause otherwise stuff wouldn’t work, but it’s a godsend to have a product like this! 😍🔌
Pouca gente entende como uma máquina redonda consegue fabricar uma peça perfeitamente sextavada sem parar a rotação. O segredo é o fresamento sincronizado onde a ferramenta e a peça giram em velocidades coordenadas para criar faces planas em pleno movimento. É engenharia pura.
If you get out of the console and terminal, you will start to see that there is a lot of hard tech being built in America.
It is deeply deeply inspiring and exciting.
Let’s shoot things into space ✅
