Constraint-driven generative engineering design
What AI can assist with: Generative design software explores multiple geometry options that satisfy specified engineering, manufacturing, and performance constraints.
Practical meaning: a defined part of this workflow can be automated; judgement and exceptions remain human work.
Human responsibility: you set the rules, handle exceptions and approve results.

What remains human responsibility
Evidence shows a capability exists; it does not prove adoption in every workplace or full-task replacement.
Evidence limits
Each capability is verified from the cited source only. A source shows that a capability exists; it does not establish adoption, deployment depth or outcomes in any particular workplace.
