Mike Koenigs and NASA's Crystal Johnson used generative AI to design a solution for respiratory failure risk in space exploration. What normally takes years took hours. The project targets NASA's goal of reaching Mars by 2040.

So let me begin with a little mini commercial. So just to set this up, what we wound up doing is when we first met with Crystal Johnson from NASA, she explained to us what the vision and the mission was. Get to Mars by 2040, get back to the lunar surface as quickly as possible. This is of national security importance and all of the benefits of space exploration that benefit everyone. And she said, we've got lots of challenges. NASA has lots of challenges. Is there a way that generative AI could help accomplish that? So, just through our conversations, I fed the conversations into chat. GPT started isolating some of the biggest problems. And through that, we designed a solution for a problem that anyone, any human being that would ever go into space, or for that matter, anything alive, would deal with, which is potential respiratory failure.
