Assertion Not checkable as stated
Noone: Programmatic Design for Manufacturability checks do not exist without human review
“There is no way to programmatically do a DFM check. You know, for a part, there's some software that kind of does it. You're still going to be sending it to your machinist. You're going to send it to the manufacturing engineer.”

Assertion Partly supported
Noone: Zoo built the first GPU-optimized cloud CAD geometry engine using CUDA
“So our view was we would start with this geometry engine. That's the world's first GPU optimized cloud-based API accessible CAD engine. We built that from scratch. So that's CUDA, which is kind of GPU level machine language CUDA level implementation of those c…”
