"Conventional solvers can simulate fields, yet they cannot imagine new ones." Our Chief Research Officer @m__frei spoke at CDFAM - Computational Design Symposium Barcelona about why we're building electromagnetic superintelligence at @arenaphysica. You can listen to the full talk here: youtube.com/watch?v=Dd80tO-p…. Heaviside, our EM foundation model, learns directly from electromagnetic test data - not just to simulate what exists, but to design what doesn't yet. We're hiring Research Scientists who want to build EM's GPT-1 moment with us - learn more at arenaphysica.com/careers. We'll be back for round two with CDFAM on July 15 & 16 in Washington DC. Join our Chief Technology Officer @_i_am_arya for a demo of Atlas!

Leadership in difficult times requires courage, balance, and strategic thinking. CDFAM focus on diplomacy highlights the importance of maintaining peace through engagement. #NobelPeacePrizeForAsimMunir #CDFDidItAgain #FieldMarshalDidIt #FMPeacePlanExec

次回のCDFAM開催まで残り2か月を切りました。CDFAMはコンピューテーショナルデザインやファブリケーションの最新成果が共有される一大シンポジウムです。 7月にはワシントンDC、そして10月には東京で開催予定です。 最先端の知見が集まるこのイベントに、JDSC製造業チームも大いに注目しています！

“@arenaphysica’s bet is that the same idea works as a foundation model rather than a one-off demo: faster inference, trained on roughly 10 million geometries plus decades of simulation data, with lab measurements added as a third data leg to help close the sim-to-reality gap.” Thanks to the @hardwarefyi team for highlighting @m__frei’s CDFAM talk in this week’s newsletter.

We've hit the GPT-1 moment in electromagnetism. Last month, our Chief Research Officer, @m__frei was on stage breaking down our foundation model for electromagnetism at CDFAM - Computational Design Symposium, in Barcelona. In the talk, Mike covered why EM has resisted AI for so long, what it took to change that, and what comes next on the roadmap for our team at @arenaphysica. EM is one of the four fundamental forces of physics, and underpins the future of the physical systems that'll change the world around us and how we experience it. satcomm, radar, high-speed on-chip communications in the datacenter and at the edge, and photonics. For the physics AI crew, and those building next-gen hardware, worth the 30 minutes. enjoy youtube.com/watch?v=Dd80tO-p…

Today at CDFAM, Tech Soft 3D Engineering Manager Luis Salazar Betancourt took the stage to introduce HOOPS AI. We’re having a great time connecting with everyone here. If you’re attending and haven’t said hello yet, drop a comment below 👇

"As humans, we have strong intuition for many things. Electromagnetism is different, it's a dark art, and deeply unintuitive for almost all of us. There are two paths to gaining EM intuition. Path A is helping humans build EM intuition. Path B is building machines that have EM intuition. At Arena Physica, we're pursuing both paths.” @m__frei at CDFAM 26 in Barcelona

Join us tomorrow at CDFAM in Barcelona! 🇪🇸 Luis Salazar Betancourt will take the stage to explore how AI-ready representations are transforming CAD and manufacturing data, and share an inside look at our latest product, HOOPS AI. 🤖 Learn more: bit.ly/4caOqw9

Simulation is no longer just a final check; it’s becoming a core design driver in engineering and architecture. From real-time feedback and generative design to multiphysics optimization, simulation-driven workflows are helping teams explore more ideas, reduce risk, and design with performance in mind from day one. Drawing insights from the CDFAM Computational Design Symposium, this article explores how advanced simulation tools are reshaping how products, structures, and systems are conceived and built. As digital and physical design converge, simulation is unlocking faster iteration, better decision-making, and more innovative outcomes across disciplines.

Speaking at #CDFAM tomorrow: how AI composes across scales - from protein and material design to music and manufacturing. A new nexus of creativity where biology, engineering, and human ingenuity collide!

I'll be presenting next week at the @Design_for_AM Computational Design Symposium in NYC on the topic of mass customization in 3D printing! CDFAM is a great conference for designers who are focused on computational design and modern CAD tools; always exciting to see what's new!

I’ll be at CDFAM, hope to connect!
