i2cjakon AI-assisted PCB design for KiCad 10

the OpenAI folks that worked on this demo include this X account w/ some further tips. https://x.com/0x50484244/status/2110189303418769839?s=20 The future is 100% not computer use in my opinion and experience

glad you're trying it out. the reason for forking KiCad is to use the upstream/yet to be released IPC API features for schematic and PCB manipulation, vs. having the LLM directly edit or have to interact with S-expressions. Many ways to skin a cat.

I use Backplane more for overall "acceleration" of hardware vs. proompt -> product stuff (this is still mostly slop imo)
