An integrated development environment (IDE) for designing, programming, and configuring aspects of an industrial automation system uses a generative artificial intelligence (AI) model and associated neural networks to generate portions of an industrial automation project in accordance with functional requirements provided to the industrial IDE system in intuitive formats, such as spoken or written plain language text. The system uses generative AI to translate plain language requests or functional specifications into industrial control code, human-machine interface (HMI) applications, device configuration settings, or other aspects of an industrial control project.

Generative artificial intelligence industrial design code conversion

An industrial integrated development environment (IDE) comprises a development interface that affords a user a great deal of control over the editing tools, workspace canvases, and project information rendered at a given time. The industrial IDE system also includes various graphical features that assist the user to easily discern the various online and offline states of industrial control programs developed using the IDE system. Collaboration tools supported by the IDE system facilitate communicative and coordinated editing of control programs by multiple developers, and the IDE system conveys the resulting online and offline states of these programs using intuitive graphical indicators.

An industrial IDE supports development of control programming using an industrial domain-specific language (DSL) that allows control programming to be written using a scripted programming language having features catered to the industrial domain. The industrial DSL can simplify and streamline development of industrial control code relative to using conventional graphics-based control programming formats such as ladder logic, since a script-based industrial DSL can be used to write programming code using fewer mouse clicks relative to traditional control programming environments. Editing tools inherent to the industrial DSL can provide dynamic programming feedback that guides the developer through the process of developing control code. A development interface of the industrial IDE can comprises two editing windows that render the control program in a graphical format and in a text-based format simultaneously, allowing the user to edit the program in either format on the same interface.
