What Every Jeweler Should Know

AI Assistant in RhinoArtisan - What Every Jeweler Should Know

1. How AI Actually Works

AI does not think or understand like a human. It works by learning patterns from enormous amounts of data and then predicting the most probable result based on what it has seen before.

It’s not creativity or intelligence in the human sense — it’s advanced pattern recognition that produces results that look smart.

2. What AI Models Are

An AI model is a pre-trained system that has learned from millions (or billions) of examples. Each model is specialized: some work with text, others with images, code, voice or structured data.

There is no single AI that does everything. Assistant uses specific local models that are trained for language and reasoning tasks.

3. What Is a Prompt

A prompt is simply the instruction you give to the AI. The quality of the result depends directly on how clear and specific your request is.

Vague prompts produce vague results. Precise prompts produce useful and predictable outputs.

4. What Is a User Prompt (in RhinoArtisan Assistant)

A user prompt is not only a question — it is the way you guide and shape how Assistant behaves. Through prompts you can instruct the AI to follow specific workflows, apply technical rules, respect design constraints, or use information coming from your jewelry libraries and business data.

Prompts allow you to “teach” Assistant how to think within your environment: manufacturing specifications, pricing logic, gemstone criteria, customer preferences, or internal knowledge. The clearer your instructions, the more controlled and tailored Assistant becomes.

5. Why AI Needs Powerful Hardware

Running AI locally means the computer must load very large models into memory and process them in real time. This requires significant RAM, GPU memory and fast storage.

Weak hardware will not break Assistant — but it will make it slow or unable to run larger models.

6. Local AI vs Cloud AI

Cloud AI runs on external servers and sends your data over the internet. Local AI runs directly on your computer and never leaves your machine.

Assistant is 100% local. This gives you full privacy and independence, but also means performance depends entirely on your hardware.

7. Not All AI Models Can Run Offline

Many AI systems are proprietary and only work in the cloud because they require massive infrastructure. Those models cannot be downloaded or run locally.

Assistant uses open-source models that are optimized to run offline on professional hardware.

8. What Assistant Does (and Doesn’t Do)

Assistant helps you work with jewelry that already exists in RhinoArtisan. It searches libraries, extracts data, prepares reports, supports workflows and helps reuse designs faster.

It does not design jewelry automatically or create models from scratch. It amplifies your work — it doesn’t replace your creativity.
