Episode notes
Federated Learning Impact
- Boris Scharinger was deeply influenced by the federated learning episode focusing on injection molding and confidentiality.
- He even translated and shared the transcript with colleagues to highlight its industrial relevance.
Federated Learning Challenges
- Federated learning is powerful but complex and industrial players are still mastering basic machine learning.
- Generative AI enthusiasm has overshadowed confidentiality concerns on shop floor data handling for now.
What Makes AI Industrial-Grade
- Industrial-grade AI requires much more robustness, reliability, and lifecycle support than consumer AI.
- Challenges in industry include hardened data pipelines, high accuracy needs, and long-term hardware reliability.
