Connect with Yeshwant on LinkedIn: Connect with John on LinkedIn: 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.
