“…Thus over the years, in response to technological progress, methods of doing number crunching in this field have evolved from manual to machine-based calculations assisted by various types of computing devices (analogue computers, simple calculators, digital computers, etc.) [113,114]. Indeed, computing technologies have permeated the field of mechanical engineering to become essential instruments for modelling, design, analysis and manufacturing of complex, large-scale components and systems [115], leading to an active area of research [116].…”

Following the recent rise in generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) tools, fundamental questions about their wider impacts have started reverberating around various disciplines. To this end, this work was undertaken: (i) firstly, to track the unfolding landscape of general issues surrounding GenAI tools; (ii) secondly, as an exploratory inquiry to elucidate the specific opportunities and limitations of GenAI tools as part of the technology-assisted enhancement of mechanical engineering education and professional practices. As part of the investigation, we conduct and present a brief scientometric analysis of recently published studies to unravel the emerging trend on the subject matter. Further, experimentation was done with selected GenAI tools (Bard, ChatGPT, DALL.E, and 3DGPT) for mechanical engineering-related tasks. The study identified several pedagogical and professional opportunities and guidelines for deploying GenAI tools in mechanical engineering. Besides, the study highlights some pitfalls of GenAI tools for analytical reasoning tasks (e.g., subtle errors in computation involving unit conversions) and sketching/image generation tasks (e.g., poor demonstration of symmetry).

“…18 Charles Care discussed the role of analog computers in experimental interaction, "where the human investigator was actively involved in the computation process." 19 This advantage of interactive analog computers such as the COMIC persisted until small digital computers such as the IBM 1130 and minicomputers became available for dedicated use in the late 1960s.…”
