Fascinating! I've been looking for an easier way to create 3D models for my project.

Have you tried using this new generative design approach? It's been a game changer for me.

Yes, I've been using this approach for a few months now and I can't imagine going back to the traditional way. The time I save using generative design is invaluable.

I'm excited to give it a try! I read that this method is much more efficient for creating complex designs.

I'm having some issues getting started with generative design. Does anyone have any tips for a beginner?

Start by watching some tutorials and reading up on the basics of generative design. I found that helped me get the hang of it.

I suggest practicing by trying to recreate some simple 3D models using generative design. Once you get the hang of it, you can move on to more complex models.

I'm wondering if anyone has any experience using generative design with other 3D modeling tools. I'm currently using Blender and would like to incorporate this new method.

I use generative design with SketchUp and Fusion 360, and it's been really smooth. I haven't tried it with Blender, but I imagine it would be possible to integrate the two in some way.

I don't use Blender, but I do use generative design with another 3D modeling tool and I was able to make the two work together by exporting the design as an .STL file and then importing it into the 3D modeling tool.
