What cannot be measured cannot be improved! As @mecadoinc shows in our work with @huggingface, there's a whole lot of work to do to create AI systems that really work for mechanical design. And these are just single parts - no requirements or assembly context!

[Michael Rabinovich @MikushRab]

Introducing CADGenBench: measure how well AI systems produce engineering-grade 3D parts!

While current models can generate 3D parts, they are far from precise enough to build functional parts. We built a benchmark to systematically measure their capabilities on two tasks:

1. Generation from an engineering drawing of a part
2. Editing: given an existing STEP file and a requested change

The benchmark is tool-agnostic. It makes no assumptions about how you build the model. You can vary the LLM, and you can vary the environment. Use build123d, Onshape, Autodesk, or a model without an LLM entirely. We open sourced the scoring engine and a reference baseline on top of build123d.

A collaboration between Hugging Face and @mecadoinc!

@kobe0938 building continuous benchmarking is benchmark task

@Dylan_Morri turbomachinery engineering is what made me realize that 90% of software engineering is total larping

gmail identifies all cadence communications as spam by default lmao, even when it's 2FA sign-in

maybe Google will win after all

@Xaraphim @wingod if you think vibe coded bugs in websites are bad, i got bad news for your complex filleting in claude cad v2.1

@BrierRat @istvan_csanady @2112Power solidworks is specifically marketing a “dumb solid to parametric model” beta feature

[elie @eliec_]

@istvan_csanady @BrierRat @2112Power interesting. not sure that’s really true because of how certain features differ. for example, nx fillets can adjust to certain surfaces much better than in sw. model capability is limited by tool capability at eod in this case
