Has AI started to explore engineering spaces other than coding?

Leader posted 1 min read

NVIDIA GPUs helped train LLMs that are now helping design the next generation of NVIDIA GPUs.

Yes, there is something recursive happening here.

Nvidia trained internal LLMs: ChipNeMo and BugNeMo on decades of proprietary chip-design data.

These models can:

• Generate chip-design code

• Answer hardware engineering questions

• Summarize bug reports

So, this goes beyond normal coding assistants.

Bill Dally recently shared how AI is becoming deeply involved in chip design, not just for automation, but for discovering solutions human engineers may never think of.

Nvidia also built an AI system called NVCell that redesigns thousands of chip layout blocks whenever a new semiconductor manufacturing process arrives.

Though we are still far from:

“Prompt → Fully designed GPU.” :) :)

But what do you think, has AI started to explore engineering spaces other than coding?
