Suchit Jain, VP of strategy & business development at SolidWorks, offered several startling comments about ChatGPT and its AI brethren.

“Real innovation looks stupid.”

“What is the killer application for AI? At first, they said it was automation. Now AI is in the design world. Does it invent? I don’t know. Can it create? I say, yes. Just wait. It’s just a matter of time.”

“When you open something to the masses, it can get out of hand.”

“Technology leaves people behind. The goal is to not leave people behind.”

“We asked ChatGPT if it knew SolidWorks API. It said, yes. We asked it to create a spiral staircase in SolidWorks API. It did so. It wasn’t completely useful, but it was about 80% useful.”

“The speed of improvement for ChatGPT will probably begin in just a year.”
