So I'm interested to hear from you guys, um, why do you think a, a code-based or a code-first platform is really the, the best approach to developing PCBs with AI?

Narayan PowderlyGUEST
I think, uh, you know, just, just back to my, my sort of previous remark there of we see two important things.

Narayan PowderlyGUEST
One is we need a set of tooling, which is we see it as the language and then tooling around it that unlocks the model's capabilities.

Narayan PowderlyGUEST
The, the second question is how do you present that to the user in a way that allows them to build powerful things and understand them, as well as familiarity and being able to work within, you know, their existing designs with the, the team members that they have.
