No GenAI topic as the lead story today: Simulation and AI take center stage. Suddenly GenAI is back on the agenda: Have you seen the Sora video - the pirate ships in a coffee cup? Unrealistic yes, but the physics, i.e. the waves, the movement or the wind. A model has to render that first. And if you can reproduce the physics so well, you might be able to change the engineering process in the near future.
Nokia builds up AI-RAN offering
The Finnish company's partner is NVIDIA. Both companies want to combine cloud and virtualized radio access network (RAN) solutions with CPUs and GPUs. Virtualizing and cloudifying (and in some cases disaggregating) the RAN is a priority as operators pull out all the stops to reduce operational costs, primarily through automation, and give networks the flexibility they need to support new services and related business models.
Perhaps the most valuable company in Europe wants to deliver several machines. ASML plans to increase deliveries of EUV systems and expand production. In addition, chip manufacturers will soon be able to try their hand at high-NA EUV lithography. With the assembly of the world's first fully functional high-NA tool nearing completion, the high-NA lab will be ready to receive customers in the first quarter, ASML's head of high-NA product development Greet Storms told reporters on Friday.

The JKU Linz has published an exciting paper on simulation and AI. We are still reading it, because next week co-author Johannes Brandstetter will be a guest on our podcast. Brandstetter and his team demonstrate the effectiveness of Universal Physics Transformers (UPTs) in mesh-based flow simulations, steady-state Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes simulations, and Lagrangian-based dynamics.
In the latest episode of the Industrial AI podcast, Peter Seeberg spoke with Behnam Nouri of Siemens Energy. Nouri is the AI Lead at Siemens Energy and explains how he and his teams are using AI in simulation and what models they are using. Despite or perhaps because of the GenAI hype, simulation and AI are a big topic for the industrial sector. And: GenAI and simulation will support each other.
