Autonomous CNC programming!?

In this episode, we dive into the cutting edge of industrial AI, from the latest advancements in large language model distillation to the transformative power of AI agents in manufacturing. I sit down with Tanmay Aggarwal, CEO of Lambda Function, for a deep conversation about autonomous CNC programming, real-time shop floor integration, and why memory and causal inference matter for the next wave of physical AI. We also unpack industry trends – from SD card AI accelerators to Europe’s strategic push for data sovereignty – and share candid thoughts on what it takes to move from AI-assisted workflows to true autonomy. If you’re curious about how AI is reshaping industrial strategy, or just want to hear how real-world manufacturing is meeting the future, this one’s for you. Join us as we connect the dots between research breakthroughs, practical deployments, and the evolving competitive landscape of industrial AI.
