Intelligence for the
Physical World
Former Autodesk CEO Carl Bass and InfinitForm CEO Michael Bogomolny explore Physical AI — the technology transforming how engineers design, validate, and manufacture.
AI that understands the constraints of the real world
Traditional AI transforms digital experiences. Physical AI transforms how things are designed and manufactured — understanding gravity, materials, cost, and manufacturability from the start.
InfinitForm’s Physical AI platform navigates the constraints that make or break a design, amplifying engineering expertise with GPU-accelerated intelligence.
Six conversations that define Physical AI
Carl Bass and Michael Bogomolny break down why AI’s next frontier is the physical world.

From Autodesk to the future of manufacturing
Carl Bass served as CEO of Autodesk for over a decade, growing it into the world’s leading design software company. A maker at heart, he has spent his career at the intersection of technology, design, and manufacturing.
Now, he’s exploring the next evolution: Physical AI — intelligence that understands the constraints of the real world and amplifies the engineers who build it.
- Former CEO, Autodesk (2006–2017)
- Board member, HP Inc. and Zendesk
- Maker, machinist, and manufacturing advocate
- Pioneer in CAD/CAM and design technology
What makes Physical AI different
The ideas driving a new category of intelligence.
Constraint-Aware
Gravity. Materials. Cost. Tooling. Physical AI reasons about the real constraints that determine whether a design can be manufactured.
Amplification, Not Replacement
Physical AI sits between human intent and physical reality. Engineers lead the design. AI handles the constraints.
GPU-Accelerated
Real-time DFM validation and parametric model generation powered by GPU acceleration. Design cycles measured in hours, not months.
Engineering Intelligence
for the Physical World
InfinitForm applies Physical AI to re-engineer how products are designed — turning engineering intent into production-ready designs in minutes.
