Nitpick, blacksmiths typically did forging, which is hammering heated metal into shape with benefits for the strength of the hammered material. CNC is machining, cutting things into the shape you want at room temperature.
Forging is machine assisted now with tons of tools but its still somewhat of a craft, you can't just send a CAD file to a machine.
I think we're still figuring out where on that spectrum LLM coding will settle.
