Foundational is building factories from the ground up to be run by software, treating the entire production system as the unit of automation.Read moreThe Factory Is the ProductCapacity is capability: Military advantage depends on more than fielding sophisticated weapons. It requires the ability to replenish, adapt, and manufacture at scale, making the means of production a strategic asset in their own right.Read morePrompt-to-Print and the Future of ManufacturingNatural language becomes the interface: As generative AI matures, manufacturing begins to shift from traditional CAD workflows toward prompt-driven design, where engineers describe intent in natural language and AI translates it into manufacturable geometry.Read more
