First Principle Build Analysis
Using First Principles Thinking to derive build procedures from existing CAD design files.
There are many things that are already implicit in building:
- Materials are used
- Fasteners are used
- Existing build techniques and designs
- OSE-specific techniques and designs - which are simpler due to Degeneracy
- Machines, materials, and tools - and properties of each
- Building codes which specify design features but no so much build procedures
The critical element of interest is detailed procedural information - which enable any novice to approach the build speed of professionals with only a bit of practice. In fact, an instructional/blueprint enabled novice can easily outperform a 'seasoned professional' without such build procedures - who would need to spend time deriving their own procedures. This is how it is normally done, and works well for obvious design - but fails at anything more complex where thinking is required.
It turns out that any novice can generate such build information with AI assist. Here's how - [1]
Bottom line: once we deconstruct the build process to simple elements, we can derive accurate procedures from available CAD files, and use a number of such instances to train AI to come up with a robust, generalized schema for producing instructionals automatically for any new instance. To validate, check against existing build pictures, add Cheatsheet Generators that summarize build procedures and where people can comment during actual builds. The cheatsheets are collected with comments, and are used to improve and build procedure details.
