Agentic industrial AI and the indispensable connected worker
from Enterprise Apps Unpacked · host Informa TechTarget
Until recently, industrial AI has mostly been focused on predictive tools and analytics that run on workstations and mobile devices. Now agentic AI is shifting the focus to execution by giving industrial robots more autonomy and making some decisions without human intervention. Yet people could be more essential than ever in making this new age of industrial AI a reality in asset-intensive industries like oil & gas, mining and manufacturing. Frontline workers -- machine operators, maintenance technicians, safety inspectors and warehouse workers -- can respond faster and more effectively to equipment failures thanks to AI-assisted workflows integrated with back-office ERP systems. These connected workers also play a critical role in gathering the data and providing the business context and guardrails that AI requires. In this episode, we explore how industrial AI technology helps coordinate the activities of frontline workers and why humans and AI agents working closely together to convert insights into action is a powerful combination for industrial automation. Featuring: Sundeep Ravande, CEO and Co-Founder, Innovapptive In today's episode, we'll also cover: How the Innovapptive platform works. The biggest industrial AI challenges. The role of multi-agent orchestration. How industrial AI could evolve in the next five to 10 years. References: The AI factory model: What CIOs need to know AI use cases in manufacturing Innovapptive's guide to the connected worker Innovapptive case studies To learn more about enterprise applications, check out Search ERP.
