Episode 22 - AI in Manufacturing - Real Opportunity or Real Hype

In this episode of The Quality Hub, host Xavier Francis is joined by Scott Dawson, President of Core Business Solutions, and Danny Norman, Advanced Manufacturing Consultant with Tennessee MEP, to explore whether AI in manufacturing is a real opportunity or just hype. Together, they dive into how manufacturers can begin experimenting with AI—particularly large language models. The conversation highlights three major areas where AI can make an impact: driving growth through product development, improving efficiency by customizing existing tools, and enhancing workforce training. They also emphasize the importance of starting small, focusing on data security, and leveraging national Manufacturing Extension Partnerships (MEPs) for guidance and pilot projects. This episode offers manufacturers a clear roadmap to responsibly explore AI while avoiding costly missteps.   Helpful Resources: More About ISO 42001: https://www.thecoresolution.com/iso-42001-certification Why ISO 42001 Certification Matters: https://www.thecoresolution.com/why-grammarlys-iso-42001-certification-matters How is ISO 9001 Implemented?:  https://www.thecoresolution.com/how-is-iso-9001-implemented For All Things ISO 9001:2015: https://www.thecoresolution.com/iso-9001-2015 Contact us at 866.354.0300 or email us at [email protected] A Plethora of Articles: https://www.thecoresolution.com/free-learning-resources ISO 9001 Consulting: https://www.thecoresolution.com/iso-consulting
