The history of design is a chronicle of human ingenuity constrained by the limits of calculation and imagination. From the master builders of antiquity, who relied on empirical rules and physical models to erect structures that have endured for millennia, to the aerospace engineers of the 20th century, who painstakingly refined aircraft designs with slide rules and wind tunnels, the process has been fundamentally iterative and human-centric. A designer, armed with experience, intuition, and the analytical tools of the era, would conceive a solution, test it, and refine it. This cycle, repeated over countless hours, could yield a handful of viable concepts, with the final selection often representing a compromise between performance, manufacturability, and time. This traditional paradigm, despite its monumental achievements, was inherently limited by the cognitive capacity of its human practitioners. The number of design permutations that could be explored was finite, and the resulting solutions, while often brilliant, were necessarily shaped by the biases and established patterns of their creators.
