My podcast guest this week is Mattias Wagner from Flux! Mattias and I investigate the role that AI plays in the Flux PCB design platform. We also delve into the details of the Flux Method, Flux Model and Flux Co-pilot, and discuss why working smarter not harder is cornerstone to the Flux mission. I also investigate why the discovery of phosphorus in the outer reaches of the galaxy could have major implications for the possibility of alien life.
