Ask any expert in technology and they’ll tell you the opportunities for AI are vast. Yet for many businesses, these opportunities can feel abstract and theoretical – efficiency improvements are there for the taking but where are they best applied? What applications carry the highest – and lowest – risk of failure? What about the cost?
And in the manufacturing industry – where purpose-built AI applications seem to be multiplying by the day – there is also a cost of doing nothing. As your competition adopts solutions that target everything from maintenance, safety, waste reduction, design & production efficiency, you can’t afford to be left behind.
And yet, at the same time, implementation must be undertaken with care.
AI raises major questions about skill development, change management and the future of work, and manufacturers who are unprepared to answer these questions risk falling further behind.
Joining us today is Dan Houdek, senior director of product marketing and AI expert with Epicor — a business software firm that’s leading the charge when it comes to delivering impactful strategies and innovative technology solutions, especially in manufacturing.
