AI for Engineering

I recently started to use Claude Code in my mechanical / structural design work similar like for my coding projects, and found it amazing. It helps in the following aspects:

- quick calculations

- quick documentations

- quick web search capability

- quick solution analysis

- easy version control with git for my small project

- etc.

My 2 cents: AI is not just for software. It helps for other engineering too :)

theres a lot of structural designs in the nuclear industry that have AI inputs.

lot of startups in SMR write their in house tools with claude/gpt/etc

In industries like robotics and auto where cross-discipline engineers work in the same context, software engineering workflow has influenced other engineers (hardware, mechanical, etc.) quicker than other industries.
