Jon Hirschtick, Chief Evangelist at PTC and co-founder of SolidWorks and Onshape, joins the conversation to share his perspective on how AI is transforming product design and engineering.
This time, instead of Dr. Maor Farid, the discussion is led by Sean Manzanares, bringing a slightly different angle to the conversation.
Jon explains why we are still in the early days of AI in engineering, and why he sees AI not as a single application, but as an entirely new class of tools that fundamentally change how problems are solved.
The conversation explores how AI is expanding across the entire product development lifecycle—from CAD and CAM to PDM and manufacturing—and how engineers should think about different levels of maturity, from early prototypes to production-ready tools.
Jon also shares why engineers should embrace multiple AI tools, how platforms like Leo complement existing systems, and why the biggest opportunity lies in rethinking workflows rather than simply automating existing ones.
