Introducing Smart Blocks: Placement | AutoCAD 2024

Smart blocks placement functionality lets you automatically place blocks in your drawing based on where you’ve inserted the same ones thus far in your DWG file, saving you valuable time in the process. The block placement engine learns how you’ve placed existing blocks in your drawing and provides a suggestion on the placement of the next instances of the same block, rather than having to do it manually.

I'm sure it must do more, but how is this example different from using object snaps?

Another useless POS from Autodesk, instead of them fixing all of the existing problem in the software? Great....they can pat themselves on their own backs for a job well done. No one else give a crap.

I don't see the point. And - the audio is crap.
