3d modeling for use in software (games or similar) imo is fine, but I would love to not see this stuff in civil engineering. People without AI are unable to design buildings that don't collapse (e.g. recent NYC apartment highrise), adding AI into the mix will just make things worse.

hastily adding AI in into the mix will make things worse

its good to be skeptical, better to spur competition and address any limitations to competition functioning quickly

Why do you presume it will make it worse instead of better? Humans, as you point out, could not manage to competently review buildings that don't collapse. Why would adding an additional level of checks (human or AI) do worse than not adding one?

Ai isn't being used to make competent people better but tries to give supposed expertise to people who don't have skill in that area.
