Smart Innovation: AI Shaping the Future of Product Development

Artificial Intelligence is rapidly transforming the automotive industry, unlocking new possibilities in design, engineering, and manufacturing. Today, companies are exploring how these powerful AI technologies (e.g. Large Language Models, Physics Based AI) can have immediate impact.

Hosted by Dr. Royston Jones, CTO Altair Product Design & SVP Automotive at Altair, this panel brings together the 2025 Altair Enlighten Award winners to provide invaluable insight into how their companies are re-defining their product development strategies. Panelists will share initial deployments that have successfully delivered value (e.g. increased design speed through Machine Learning, automation etc.). The real-world challenges of AI deployment will be discussed (e.g. AI in Engineering Simulation, the availability of only small datasets, security etc.).

By focusing on AI deployment, these innovators are re-defining how technology will drive innovation and reduce product design time.
