## Aston Martin's AI Radio System
Aston Martin's Formula One team now listens to 40 race radio channels at once with AI transcribing messages within five seconds.
## Real-Time Rival Tire Analysis
Engineers can ask how rival drivers find a tire compound and get answers mid-race using the AI system.
## AI Partnerships for F1
Aston Martin added three AI partners in 18 months: CoreWeave for cloud computing, Cohere for generative AI, and Cognition for coding agents.
## CoreWeave's Radio Monitoring
CoreWeave's AI transcribes 40 channels within five seconds, covering 22 competitor channels and the team's internal channels.
## Simulation Cuts Trial Costs
Aston Martin uses high-fidelity airflow simulations to estimate design changes without full simulations, saving money under the $215 million F1 budget.
## Generative AI in Engineering
Cohere's North platform helps engineers with tasks, while Cognition's agents handle software development autonomously.
## AI Adoption in F1
Aston Martin is not alone: AI brands account for 4 of the top 15 new sponsorship investors in Formula One.
## Key takeaway

Aston Martin uses AI to monitor rival radio channels in real-time during Formula One races.
