Autodesk unveils AI tools to help boost efficiency

At its Design and Make conference, Autodesk unveiled new AI-powered products for industries like architecture, manufacturing, and media. The technology provides generative design capabilities and intelligent assistance for tasks like building, product design, and 3D modeling.
CEO Andrew Anagnost says Autodesk’s AI aims to help companies “build more with less” by automating processes, generating data, and creating sophisticated 3D models. This allows customers to work faster and more cost efficiently. The AI tools also offer predictive insights and can analyze complex sustainability projections, shortening lengthy development cycles to weeks.
Anagnost emphasized that many industries have “massive capacity problems” and cannot meet demand growth. By leveraging AI to eliminate repetitive tasks and speed up design work, Autodesk hopes to ease capacity strains on swamped teams.
“We don’t see this replacing jobs,” Anagnost tells Yahoo Finance, adding: “…what we need to do is help them get more through-put with the resources they have and that’s what were focused on.”
