  So the AI part is because the customers state their problem in plain English? In your experience, do they prefer that rather than a GUI?

  Incidentally, what method do you use to solve the problem once the LLM gives you a formulation? Or is the LLM itself tasked with solving the problem directly?

  Hello,

  I have written a 3D bin packer fully in F# https://3dpack.ing

  I plan to open source the frontend. And a fork of older version of the algorithm is available here (albeit that version is very slow)

  PS. I am convinced "bin packing" problems are related (in AI) to an AI's "proprioception" (or, something that might lead to it), and that this - in turn - a "sense" of "body" (or/and a body) ...

  ... is somewhat of a prereq for AGI.-
