[ Advanced GUI Suggestion ] Siri Like AI to Fight Clutter

Hi. Thank you again for listening. You are one of the best Autodesk.

 

To fight clutter, supposing Maya is integrated into Stingray (it should do that to simplify things so all inquiries are put in Stingray even if it's Maya related) Autodesk must become a kind of butler, a kind of Siri wherein you just type or tell your parameters. For example, you can tell it I just want to model prototype with ability to save, it just gives you the save file, the split tool, a cube and torus, extrude, transform tools, the camera tools, the panel for the values and the exit tool and help- that's enough to do a basic form, a protoype. These combo may even have a name you could call out or type on splash screen of Stingray or Maya. It may be called Model Prototype. It could also be thought of as a kind of template but you customize it right on the start.

 

If you need more menus you just call it out, it doesn't even need to be the exact word, it could be like Siri, being able to use context. You can just call out or type, "tool for creating a poseable human figure" and it's smart enough to know the basic (by basic it gives you the most used tools for kinematics, so a kind of survey on what users use, especially the pros, would be needed to add to this Siri like A.I.).

 

It could also do, say an easy way to duplicate in a revolution. For example you select 1 propeller blade and you want to rotate that evenly on a propeller nose cone, you click on the propeller and the nose cone in that order, then say revolve around equally with 21 more blades (other equivalent for revolve could be used so that it's really smart). This is a fast way to duplicate things that uses all the 3 transformations dynamically.

 

Thank you. God bless. Rev. 21:4

Cool ideas. I think the current toolsets in Max and Maya and Stingray are pretty good at quick iteration and the tasks they are meant to do. A voice command may get really complicated as there would be many commands to say out loud that in current practice would only take selecting the right tool and implementing.
