SKY-001 is billed as the first 'Engineering World Model'

A post introducing SKY-001 calls it the first 'Engineering World Model.' It claims the system is 51–125x faster and 150–210x cheaper on CAD and BIM tasks than GPT-6 Astra and other frontier models tested, with higher IOU. The post says a team from Maluuba's deep learning lab built SKY-001 over 18 months and pitches an 'AI General Engineer' as a future backbone for autonomous manufacturing.
