I used OpenSCAD a huge amount a few years ago and got pretty good at their language. I recently I saw someone bring it up again in the context of coding assistants/agents, and I am wondering: will we have a resurgence in programmatic solid modeling due to assistance? Is this one of the best ways for AI to be used for solid objects?
