The Evolution of AI in Industrial Manufacturing

AI in industrial manufacturing is seen as the natural progression of control strategy in the industry. It is considered a landmark in advancing manufacturing processes, with the potential to increase quality, reduce costs, and improve yield. The integration of AI is driven by the growing volume of data available from smart equipment on the plant floor. However, the challenge lies in ensuring that the data is clean and correlated, as AI algorithms require large volumes of clean data to perform effectively. Organizational change management is important to build trust in AI and ensure operators believe in the technology's capabilities.
