Successfully Implemented Training on 3D Printing, Generative AI, and HPC

The training on 3D Printing, Generative AI, and High-Performance Computing (HPC) was successfully implemented as planned, bringing together participants interested in emerging digital technologies and their practical application in design and production. Through the training, attendees had the opportunity to explore the fundamentals of 3D printing, digital modelling, and the growing role of generative AI tools in creating and improving 3D models.

There was around 40 people attending the 2-day course

A key message of the training was that generative AI is becoming an important driver of innovation, enabling faster idea generation, automated design support, and new creative workflows. At the same time, such models often require significant computing power for training, fine-tuning, and large-scale inference. This is where HPC plays a crucial role, providing the infrastructure needed to efficiently run advanced AI models and support more complex, data-intensive tasks. By connecting 3D printing, generative AI, and HPC, the training highlighted how these technologies can work together to accelerate innovation in education, research, and industry.

The attendees were split into teams and competed with their 3D models to be printed out
