A recent Idera report reveals that many industries view artificial intelligence positively. Judy Bossi, Vice President of Product Management at Idera, discusses AI's potential in quality assurance (QA), the challenges to adoption, and steps to effectively implement the technology.

Robotics is rapidly advancing from science fiction to practical uses across industries like manufacturing, logistics, and healthcare. Key trends include autonomous systems operating independently, robots collaborating with humans for improved productivity and safety, and AI integration that allows robots to learn and adapt. This technology enables both large enterprises and SMEs to optimize processes and meet growing demands.

Generative AI Searches are transforming how professionals access technical data in fields like inspection and gages. While these tools deliver quick results, reliance on their outputs can lead to inaccuracies, as shown by discrepancies in thread specifications. Understanding the strengths and limitations of Generative AI is essential for ensuring the accuracy and relevance of information used in gage calibration and metrology.

The manufacturing sector struggles with declining workforce experience as seasoned veterans retire and new operators lack the necessary skills. To address this, integrating predictive quality technologies and AI-driven recommendations can empower less experienced workers to achieve the quality and performance levels needed.

Organizations are increasingly adopting Software as a Service (SaaS) for quality management, moving away from traditional on-premises systems due to its scalability and cost-effectiveness. By 2025, SaaS is projected to power 85% of all business applications, up from 70% in 2023.
