In this Realize Live 2025 episode recorded in Amsterdam, we sit down with John Skarakis and Yeshwant Mummaneni — two Chief Engineers from Altair — to explore one of the biggest questions facing the industry today: How will AI transform engineering?
From physics-aware AI models to fully automated simulation agents, John and Yeshwant give a practical, no-buzzword look into how AI is reshaping product development, simulation workflows, and the engineering job role itself.
This conversation moves from high-level vision to real-world implementation:
how AI agents can launch CAD tools, mesh models, build solver decks, submit HPC jobs, post-process results — and even cluster outcomes to pick the best design direction in seconds.
🚀 In this episode you’ll also learn:
- What AI engineering really means for simulation teams
- Why AI is “a new tool in the toolbox,” not a replacement for expertise
- How Altair’s Physics AI cuts solver time from hours to seconds
- The rise of AI simulation agents across CAD → Meshing → HPC → Post-processing
- Why domain knowledge remains essential (“junk in, junk out”)
- How GraphRAG and semantic context solve hallucination risks
- Why trust, guardrails, and human-in-the-loop design matter
- How Siemens’ acquisition of Altair accelerates AI-enabled engineering
- The evolving role of the engineer: specialist vs. generalist
- Where we are in the AI hype cycle — and what comes next
