Compare / Archee Studio vs ChatGPT + AutoLISP

ChatGPT writes you a script. Archee Studio hands you the sheet.

Questions

Can ChatGPT write AutoLISP?

It can write routines that you load and run in AutoCAD. Read them first, because a script can fail or change the wrong objects, and AutoCAD LT lacks some functions of full AutoCAD.

Why not just use a chatbot?

For a question, do. A design is different: it has dozens of linked values, and the sheet and report must both agree with them. Archee Studio keeps them in one record and checks the result.
