Some 82% of engineers surveyed by Avnet say they have products or are working on new designs that feature AI.
The latest Avnet Insights survey explored how engineers are using AI in the design process and incorporating it into product design.
The survey generated responses from 1,204 engineers across Asia, EMEA and the Americas. Respondents’ job titles included software (41%), electronics, hardware and mechanical engineering (31%) and engineering management (27%). All major industry sectors were represented, with nearly half of the respondents working in Information Computing and Telecommunications (ICT).
