How do you see artificial intelligence impacting the Aerospace industry in the years to come?
AI continues to show huge potential in continuing to change common fields like sales, healthcare and advertising and it continues to bring the ability for great innovation in Aerospace Engineering. With this question, your interviewer will be looking to hear that you have knowledge of the impacts that that AI can play in the field. They'll also be looking to see that you have a forward vision of how the future of the field can change more with its use. As you answer, be sure to talk about any direct experience you have with AI technology and focus your answer on where you feel the future of the industry may benefit the most.
"In my current role, I have seen the effects of artificial intelligence firsthand in our use of AI for data collection in testing. This alone has saved an inconceivable amount of man hours and enable our testing to speed up at an exponential rate. As far as the future of AI in the Aerospace Engineering realm goes, I really think the possibilities are almost endless. On the maintenance and efficiency side of things, I think that more AI will develop to monitor aircraft systems more closely and collect information that can detect defective systems and potentially save lives. On the design side, I've already witnessed AI algorithms used in generative design to help make design processes much quicker and I think further advancements are coming here."
