The Intersection of AI and Physics in Advanced Manufacturing | Robin Toluie, PhysicsX

In this episode of the Tesoro AI podcast, we sit with Robin Toluie, a key figure behind PhysicsX, a company leveraging AI and machine learning to accelerate simulation and design processes across various advanced industries. They delve into Robin's extensive background in both theoretical physics and high-stakes automotive engineering with leading companies like Mercedes AMG and Bentley Motors. They discuss the application of machine learning in optimizing vehicle designs, reducing costs through virtual simulations, and its broader implications beyond automotive—applying to aerospace, renewables, and medical fields. Robin highlights PhysicsX’s innovative use of large physics models and deep learning to replace traditional numerical simulations, driving faster and more efficient product development. They also explore the potential and limitations of AI-generated simulations, the role of agents in automating engineering workflows, and the exciting developments upcoming in the field, including the release of Airplane 2.0. If your company is looking to scale its AI initiatives, head over to Tesoro AI (www.tesoroai.com). We are experts in AI strategy, staff augmentation, and AI product development. Founder Bio: Robin Tuluie is the founder and vice chairman of PhysicsX, pioneering deep learning and simulation solutions for breakthrough engineering. A theoretical physicist, Robin discovered a new effect in cosmic background radiation, later confirmed by the Nobel-winning COBE satellite. Transitioning to Formula One, he led R&D at Renault (Alpine) F1, securing back-to-back championships, then at Mercedes F1, helping build one of the sport’s most dominant teams. After further success at Bentley Motors, Ducati MotoGP, and Volkswagen Group, he founded PhysicsX in 2019 to revolutionize engineering with AI-driven simulation, tackling climate and industrial challenges.
