Nikita Bier (X product lead) demonstrated what he calls "vibe-fabrication": using AI to design a custom dog door with a Wi-Fi-controlled lock, precisely matching his house, despite knowing nothing about metal fabrication or electrical engineering. It's being manufactured and shipped in 2 weeks at nearly the same cost as a mass-produced off-the-shelf unit — a glimpse of on-demand, per-consumer manufacturing.
