AI for PCB design - Are we there yet?
It’s no secret, software engineers are feeling the brunt of AI with their jobs.
Some are faring better than others, but more and more tasks are getting automated. Whether we like it or not AI is and is going to become more commonplace in different aspects of our life.
Should hardware designers be worried?
Or go about your day thinking AI is just another slightly better or worse auto router. It’s better to embrace AI than to fight it. Let it help you be better at what you do. I’ve been trying out various AI tools for PCB.
These tools range from full EDA suits, to helping in quick design iteration, Design analysis. I still feel they are a bit long away from where they need to be. We use past experience on how technology shifts occurred, but that’s the mistake because the time for the next shift is faster than the previous one.
I’m not making any predictions. But AI for PCB is not a question of if, its of when.
