ihorbeaver · x · 2026-10-12
ihorbeaver demos an AI robotic integrator agent powered by the latest Astra and Opus models that handles an entire MicroFactory deployment end-to-end: it designs tooling, writes computer vision code, and guides a human operator through all the boring parts of hardware production. JohannesMutter adds that entrepreneurs he talks to—from dentists sterilizing instruments to carpenters sorting small parts—are considering installing such micro factories in their offices, at €20k cost with ROI in under 2 years.
