In this article, the world of engineering design gets a futuristic makeover thanks to AI. The introduction of GPT-4V, a cutting-edge vision-language model, bridges the gap between text-based AI and the visual tools long used by engineers. This study dives deep into GPT-4V’s abilities across four key areas: Conceptual Design, Detailed Design, Manufacturing & Inspection, and Engineering Education Tasks.
