Qiqi Wang, MIT
Qiqi Wang of FlexCompute, co-founder and associate professor at MIT, discusses how physics-based artificial intelligence AI and graphics processing unit GPU accelerated simulation reshape engineering workflows during theCUBE Research conversation hosted by John Furrier of theCUBE at the NYSE Wired Space Tech event. Wang describes FlexCompute's approach, which combines foundational physics models, automated geometry handling and model-context application programming interfaces API that enable engineers and AI agents to pose quantitative "what if" questions and receive answers at the speed of thought. Wang emphasizes the need to modernize engineering tools to match software innovation. They highlight that FlexCompute's platform integrates GPU compute, high performance computing HPC, fluid dynamics and other physics disciplines as well as geometry automation, reducing simulation timelines from weeks or months to near real time. Furrier highlights implications for spacecraft docking, defense technology, semiconductors and faster hardware iteration cycles across aerospace and industrial sectors, including digital twin and robotics applications.
