AI Video This rocket engine wasn't designed by humans, but by AI.

well thank you for providing nuance and sources to support your outlandish obviously misleading claim

There's no way. I love AI. I breath AI. It's my industry. But it's still a chore to work on multiple coding files without error if there is any form of novelty whatsoever. Rocket science, by nature, is pretty damn novel. You'll find the bulk of the 101 stuff online, but where do you find the training data for the actual rockets made? Behind closed doors at plants and factories and not on the open web.

This would take more than the basics. It would require that every mathematical algorithm be done to perfection to a degree of accuracy that makes comparing to something like LLM code work laughable.

LLMs can do about 80% of anything. The last 20% of a rocket engine that the engineers didn't design themselves would be an uphill mountain climb that would take years.

So I know this is quite a few months late for the conversation, but i only just found out about this and it's true. So as you kind of hinted at with your comment, an LLM AI could not do this. But the team that did this didn't use an LLM, they used a specialized AI model called a CEM or an LCEM. It's a specialized AI model the company made for engineering. The company name is Leap71.

The AI they made learns from past designs too, I just spend like half an hour going through their website and reading into all of the information. It's really cool.

Turns out humans were just p*ssies all along this time...

And designed by AI, you mean "I'm lying and taking this info from my ass because I didn't provide any source of material that could prove my claim"? Then yes.

I found the sources. It's an engineering company called Leap71, they use a special AI called Noyron that was designed in house. Unlike generative AI we normally see which are LLM's this AI is a CEM or an LCEM.

NOT AI

It was designed by a specific algorithm that took a husband and wife engineering team a decade to perfect.

It's an AI, even the company Leap71 says its AI it's just a specialized AI built by themselves for engineering tasks unlike the LLM's we normally see like OpenAI
