Industries are demanding that an educationaltransformation be made to change how mechanical engineers, manufacturing engineers, andCNC machinists are learning the skills required to meet modern and future workforce needs.In fact, many jobs that young people are being trained for today may not exist or may besubstantially different by the time these young people enter the workforce. Industry 4.0 is a newera. Education must adapt to this new era for students to be successful in their future careers.

This paperalso explains the outcome of the student's perspective in using them. In addition, the paper alsocovers other programs using these tools that may encourage critical thinking, stimulate real-world scenarios, and solve problems more effectively. Overall, using these tools should providestudents with valuable skills and knowledge that will benefit them in their future careers and bein tune with the new technology that the industry offers.Introduction“AI” is a method of making a machine, a computer, a computer-controlled robot, or a softwarethink like the human
