The auto design world is full of advanced 3D visualization tools and VR sculpting platforms, but your average new car still enters the world as a sketch.
Those sketches traditionally see endless iteration and refinement from all angles before being turned into 3D models by hand, some dying in the digital world, others sculpted into clay to better visualize lines and profiles. That's just the beginning of a design and development process that often takes a half-decade or more.
That means many new cars hitting dealerships this summer were first sketched in 2020 or 2021, initiatives kicked off when alternative fuel incentives were widesprea …

The cars rolling off production lines right now are filled with old ideas. From beginning to end, the creation of a new vehicle can take five years or longer - which is plenty of time for a lot of tastes, politics, and gas prices to change. That's one reason car manufacturers are so enthusiastic about the potential for AI to help speed up certain parts of the process, from model-making to wind-tunneling. LLMs could be poised to change the way we get around.

Design has traditionally required multiple roles working in sequence: a strategist to define the problem, a designer to shape the solution, and a developer to build it. This means coordinating timelines, aligning opinions, and going through rounds of iteration before anything tangible is created. Claude Design removes much of this friction by turning ideas directly […]

AI systems have already gained impressive mastery over the digital world, but the physical world is still humanity’s domain. As it turns out, building an AI system that can compose a novel or code an app is far easier than developing one that can fold laundry or navigate a city street. To get there, many…
Anthropic and OpenAI are accelerating competition across coding and design tools, as both companies expand agentic AI capabilities that increasingly overlap with traditional software platforms. Mike Krieger resigned from the board of Figmaamid reports that Anthropic’s upcoming Opus 4.7 model may introduce design features that could compete directly with Figma’s core products. Anthropic has already […]
