>AI engine management software for Freevalve engines like the TFG. "The system will learn over time the best ways to operate the valves, what's most frugal, what's cleanest… It will eventually start doing things we’ve never thought of," Koenigsegg says. "It'll float in and out of different ways of combusting by itself, eventually in ways not completely understandable to us." sounds like the blue-collar jobs of the future like car engine mechanic would need a Stanford AI degree. Camshafts definitely got to go. Like carburetors it has been a solution from pre-electronic age. The variable timing has been a workaround for the last 3 decades, it is kind of a complication on top of the camshaft approach. These days though i don't understand while mainstream car manufacturers wouldn't just go for the fully independent valve approach like that "Freevalve", i.e. each valve is driven by its own solenoid/pneumo/hydro actuator controlled by the computer - such approach looks simpler and cheaper to me (may be because i'm in software :)
