Autodesk previewed new "agentic AI" capabilities at its Autodesk University 2026 conference. These capabilities target three industry clouds: Forma for architecture and engineering, Fusion for design and manufacturing, and Flow for media and entertainment.
The advancements will evolve the Autodesk Assistant. It will work across different products and teams, moving beyond a single tool.
The next-generation AI will use connected project data. It aims to understand context, automate complex workflows, and turn information into actionable intelligence.
CEO Andrew Anagnost stated the goal is to address industry capacity constraints. This will occur by automating repetitive tasks. Professionals can then focus on more complex problems.
Autodesk plans a standalone version of the enhanced Assistant experience for 2027.
