OpenAI's forward-deployed engineers are collaborating with Mazda and Chip Ganassi Racing to apply AI in aerodynamic design and structural engineering. Using GPT-6 Astra through Codex, Mazda engineers simulate airflow, test dozens of nose shape variations, and reduce vehicle aerodynamic drag while balancing styling and manufacturing costs. Meanwhile, Chip Ganassi Racing is deploying Codex to transform 3D scans of physical automotive components into editable CAD models and 2D manufacturing drawings when original design files are unavailable. The collaboration highlights expanding generative AI use cases in complex physical engineering and high-performance manufacturing workflows.
