AI agents move from text generation to tool use and structural co-design

A new paper explores using AI agents to co-design structural elements in the AEC industry, connecting natural language prompts to structural modeling APIs. Separately, a developer guide details how to implement function calling in C# using the Anthropic SDK, enabling AI agents to interact with external tools and databases. This function calling capability is presented as the key differentiator between simple chatbots and more sophisticated AI agents. AI

IMPACT Enables AI agents to perform complex tasks beyond text generation, integrating with external systems for real-world applications.

RANK_REASON The cluster contains a research paper on AI for structural design and a developer guide on implementing function calling for AI agents.

    Can AI Co-Design Structures? An AI Agent for Early-Stage Structural Design

    Recent advances in large language models and agentic workflows offer a new paradigm to early-stage structural design translating design intent into structural models. Although text-to-3D approaches have demonstrated that natural language can be used to produce visual, mesh-based …

    Function Calling in C#: Building Tools Your AI Agent Can Call

    <p>The gap between a chatbot and an agent is function calling. Without it, the model can only generate text, so you have to parse that text, guess the intent and hope the format holds. With function calling, the model emits a structured call: a tool name and arguments that match …
