Are You Building a Support Vector Machine?

Today’s guest is Chris MacDonald, Head of AI and Analytics at PTC. PTC is a multibillion-dollar software firm focused on the service operations industry, and Chris speaks with us this week about the AI adoption journey for folks in service operations. In this episode, we discuss what it looks like for companies to ensure their customers get as much value out of their products as possible while simultaneously collecting data and learning how to improve future products. Chris highlights the importance of ensuring data quality and working as a team in this process. He also shares some of the unique elements of this particular life cycle of a product that is created and then shipped off and put under someone else’s control but continues to be monitored and improved by the manufacturer. This episode is brought to you by PTC. To discover more service-related insights from Chris, tune in to PTC's Speaking of Service podcast.
