About this episode
CDFAM Computational Design Symposium — Washington DC 2026
Juan Alonso · Luminary
The next decade of great-power competition will be won or lost in the engineering loop. Adversaries have increased the speed of iteration in hypersonics, undersea platforms, and autonomous aircraft and the U.S. defense industrial base cannot keep up by relying on traditional engineering workflows. Closing that gap requires a step-change in how programs are developed with AI-accelerated engineering.
