MIT's AI copilot boosts structural buckling resistance 39% with only 15 seconds added

MIT researchers built an AI system that collaborates with engineers in real time to optimize structural designs for buildings and bridges.
The system asks humans for feedback to increase trust in machine-generated designs. In tests it improved both structural strength and manufacturability, with one example achieving a 39% increase in buckling resistance while adding just 15 seconds to the design process.
