it's definitely interesting, but the demo of the coffee mug has a lot of flaws, are there some concrete examples you can think of where the hosted LLMs really shine in this problem?

What are the flaws?

I've watched the video a couple times and the only thing I can see that it does wrong is the fillets on the handle (and maybe the way it used a spline & sweep for the handle could have been improved but it's no worse than you'd see from a new Solidworks user).

Honestly, the out-of-the-box models aren't great at CAD. We were mostly trying to figure out (1) how well it could do with the best harness we could give it and (2) whether people would want and use this if it worked well.
