Text To Spaceship: Accelerating Mission Development With AI at NASA
R
4:29Ryan McClellandGUEST
So it's good at language, it's good at coding, it's good at 2D images, and kind of bad at 3D stuff, especially parametric CAD.
R
4:36Ryan McClellandGUEST
And there are reasons for that, right? The CAE tools, especially the traditional ones, you know, they take years to learn to use and find all the menu items, and they live on desktops, and they're hard to get into the agentic harness.
R
4:48Ryan McClellandGUEST
Data is locked behind corporate firewalls and hard to get enough volume of.
R
4:53Ryan McClellandGUEST
Simulation is hard, just fundamentally.
R
5:15Ryan McClellandGUEST
And I made this, uh, radar chart at the, uh, Text to Spaceship symposium six months ago.
R
5:21Ryan McClellandGUEST
But just in that six months between then and now, it's gotten less jagged.
R
5:26Ryan McClellandGUEST
You know, parametric CAD, Claude has an official plugin to a major CAE platform, right? You can, you can use Claude with Fusion three sixty, and, you know, it's really gotten pretty good at parametric CAD.
R
5:37Ryan McClellandGUEST
It's gotten better at physics.
HOOPS AI: Correlating CAD Geometry with Manufacturing & Business Process Information

1:57Luis Salazar BetancourtGUEST
We think that Microsoft was in a good position to develop this framework because we are one of the companies and the upper-clinical users for accessing data.
L
2:07Luis Salazar BetancourtGUEST
We are capable of reading more than 35 CAD formats and the same or the CAE file formats.
L
2:13Luis Salazar BetancourtGUEST
So we have seen a lot of data over the time.
L
2:16Luis Salazar BetancourtGUEST
And also we have technology for visualizing CAD data and also CAE.
L
2:22Luis Salazar BetancourtGUEST
So we move to the next step, how we can use AI for the CAD.
L
2:28Luis Salazar BetancourtGUEST
But this doesn't come with an easy answer.
