Large language models in intelligent manufacturing and mechanical engineering: a review of robotics, fault diagnosis, design, and engineering knowledge workflows
The evidence indicates that LLMs are becoming useful semantic and coordination layers in engineering workflows, but not dependable engineering substitutes in human-in-the-loop, evidence-grounded systems where retrieval, validation, tool use, and structured knowledge help keep outputs useful and bounded in safety-relevant tasks.
