After revolutionizing our smartphones, artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming all industries and science. This workshop presented various application areas of AI for industry, whether they are existing uses that are directly transferable, such as automatic natural language processing (NLP), or new techniques specific to the industry, e.g. numerical simulation and optimization problems.
First, the speakers from Hugging Face and then LightOn presented large language models (LLMs) which have demonstrated great versatility, both in the NLP domain with applications for text summarization, translation, recording transcription, etc., and beyond with applications for computer code generation, machine vision, reasoning (Socratic models), etc. While the entry ticket to train such LLM models is high ($5-10M), the French community has equipped itself with the Jean Zay computer hosted by IDRIS and grouped in the BigScience project to democratize these LLMs and teach them the French language.
In the second part, presentations from Altair, CERFACS and NVIDIA give many examples of applications of new AI techniques for the engineer's tasks, be it design, manufacturing or decision making. Today's engineers use accurate numerical tools, but they are complex, expensive, and largely monolithic. Deep Neural Networks (DNN) trained on either experimental data, direct numerical simulation data, or physical equations (PINN), offer great possibilities: better parameterization of sub-machine phenomena, exploration of the design space in real time, collaborative work, multi-physics optimization, etc. A key condition for the democratization and effective adoption of these AI techniques will be their seamless integration into current engineering tools.
Finally, the last speaker from Artelys reminds us that more elementary techniques, such as classical optimization or statistics, can fulfill the mission, and that they should not be sacrificed at the altar of deep learning (DL).
