Always good to tell your management that you’re using AI.

“ small, affordable engines that can be produced at scale to power autonomous combat platforms, collaborative combat aircraft”

Fluffy, nice sounding words to describe robot wars

I hope they have some good ways of testing these designs. Sitting on a plane only to find out the AI design had some delusions is not the place to find out!

“GE Aerospace is all-in on AI,” Joe Vinciquerra, General Manager and Senior Executive Director, GE Aerospace Research, said. “The use of generative AI to design a hypersonic speed ramjet is a great example of how we are bringing together AI science with decades of embedded know-how to shape the future of commercial and military jet engine technologies.”

He added that by using generative AI tools, GE Aerospace can significantly reduce design cycle times, “enabling us to be faster to test and ultimately faster to commercialize the best, most proven end product.”

Design is one thing. Our competitiveness will be more tested by "time to manufacturing" along with maintenance and training procedures. That is where real product system integration is tested.

There goes the overtime.

Now if the 3D printers can work fast then we are just a few steps from a “replicator.”

We used to think the world changed quickly...apparently, we’ve only just started.

My team is developing software frameworks in days, with clean, well-structured code, that would have taken several months without using AI.

I’m shocked on the monthly at the latest capabilities. The limiting factor is thinking up what you really want. Anyone that thought there’s “too much tech already” is going to be really disappointed.

I left college in 1975 and ended up in Houston, TX. NASA was trying to recruit technicians for orbital jobs with the advertised aim of one million workers in space by 2000, and a company named Marquardt Corporation was developing Ramjet propulsion in Idaho. All of that died off pretty suddenly.

Will that fit in a ‘74 Pinto Hatchback?

At this rate time travel will be a reality by Christmas. 😁

I bet the Chinese used their AI tech to steal GE’s new tech in the same amount of time.

[OftheOhio]

I saw a half scale cross section drawing of GE’s hyperburner more than 30 years ago. I was thinking to myself that my fellow designers were such total badasses! 30 years ago, really, we ain’t there yet? We were/are standing on the shoulders of giants...AI, pfft.

Affordable for military use probably means too expensive to be adapted to commercial use.

And yet, GE still can’t make a decent washing machine and dryer

[BlackbirdSST]

Now do FTL, then Warp Drive. I’ll give you till weeks end.
