Copilot AI: A Revolution in Hardware Design with Zenode

I am happy to welcome Brandon Bourn from Zenode to my podcast this week! Brandon and I discuss how monotonous repetitive tasks and hardware design pain points motivated the creation of the Zenode platform, how large language models can be utilized to solve these issues and how Zenode is looking to revolutionize hardware design with their new electronic component search engine. Also this week, I check out a new kind of biohybrid robot developed by Cornell University that is controlled by… mushrooms. (Yep, you read that right – mushrooms!)
