Generative Design: Ready for Prime Time?

Generative design is widely regarded as the Holy Grail of design engineering automation. Simply press a button, and have artificial intelligence create an optimized part. It's a supremely difficult challenge, and, like autonomous driving, is much more difficult than it appears. Engineering.com's design engineering expert Roopinder Tara discusses the state-of-the-art in generative design with Jim Anderton.

This illustrates the difference between a professional opinion, and a professional who has an opinion.

This is an amazing video. Thanks alot. two real professional engineers with a fruitful discussion . Love it. More of such topics please.

The bridge it designed might not be wrong - just not aesthetically appealing - it might still be able to handle load better than one designed by a human. With things like ChatGPT Vision (or rather, cheaper AI Vision models), it might be possible to stick in human aesthetic feedback into the design paramters as well... Although that could end up limiting the potential of the products.

Could you do an episode that compares generative design and generative AI? Are they the same? Are they different? If so how?

underrated video

[@Riley_Christian]

Too bad all the generative design stuff is proprietary overpriced bull crap. Its been long enough, when will an opensource/free software be released :(

[@motownmoneygang]

Thanks for the video, interesting!

I like the way he end the conversation by giving the best answer, yes it is a too in your tool box but not a replacement for a design engineer.
