#333 Agents of Change – AI in Industry

Generative AI has swept across our society. In every app, up it pops, eager to offer a helping hand. The opportunity to talk to computer systems as if they are human, or to create memes at unprecedented speed, has great appeal for many. But is it ready to do the hard work at the heart of our economy?

Not yet, perhaps, but soon, AI systems will be working alongside humans in industrial engineering offices and on the shop floor. They will present design choices for engineers, guided by a deep understanding of the sector they work in, and appropriately constrained by safety and other requirements. They will identify which parts on a production machine require replacement, finding alternatives for those no longer available, and producing wiring diagrams, bills of materials, and documentation, with minimal human oversight.

Unlocking a future industrial sector where dirty, dull and dangerous jobs are performed by AIs, often acting through human-like robots, will demand new approaches to AI development, and to supply chain collaboration. Rather than the ‘one window’ approach of generalist tools, industrial AI will deploy specialist agents, their actions coordinated by orchestrators, trained on engineering data and informed by industry semantics.
