Industrial Systems Engineering in the Era of AI Ep 3 - The Rise of the Domain Specific Innovators
Manage episode 502430419 series 2801657
Welcome to the third installment of our ongoing conversation on Industrial Systems Engineering in the Era of AI. In this series, I’m joined by my good friend and serial entrepreneur Rick Bullotta to unpack the profound shifts AI is driving in the industrial world.
Our journey began in Episode 1, where we explored the historical evolution and foundational data challenges that have long constrained industrial operations. In Episode 2, we moved from problems to potential solutions, diving deep into the concept of the Industrial Data Fabric as the critical enabler for this new era. We laid the groundwork, discussing the need for openness, the limitations of traditional data lakes, and the shift in focus from assets to processes.
Now, with that foundation in place, we pivot from the theoretical to the practical. This episode gets to the heart of where immediate, tangible value is being created. We move beyond the hype surrounding large-scale infrastructure and generic AI platforms to focus on the agile, domain-focused startups that are translating AI’s potential into real-world industrial outcomes. These are the companies on the front lines—the "guerrilla innovators," as I’ve called them—who are demonstrating not just what AI can do, but what it is doing today to solve specific, high-value problems on the factory floor and beyond.
