The manufacturing industry has a significant labor shortage. We need to attract new talent and upskill our existing workforce, especially by embracing candidates without degrees and leveraging technology for training at scale.
If the supply of qualified personnel is inadequate to meet the needs of industry there will be greater efforts to automate and utilize artificial intelligence to perform and evaluate NDT.
Manual methods of performing nondestructive testing (NDT) and human evaluation of the results are rapidly being replaced by automated, digitized, and artificial intelligence interpretation of the results wherever economically feasible.
Machines can accomplish so much of what humans used to do. Now is the time to leverage technology while capitalizing on the unique qualities humans bring.
Quality 4.0 aligns quality management with Industry 4.0 to drive efficiencies, performance, and innovation. It's critical now more than ever to merge human skills with technology.
Determining liability and accountability for AI system actions is challenging. Organizations need a comprehensive approach addressing technical, ethical, legal, and organizational aspects of AI.
Generative AI and machine learning tools are particularly appealing as they offer insights into the underlying relationships within manufacturing processes.
Manufacturers face complex challenges, including attracting and retaining labor and adapting to a volatile market. Skilled human labor remains crucial despite advancements in automation.
The aerospace industry constantly seeks new technologies for a competitive edge and enhanced capability. AI and maching learning in additive manufacturing offer significant value for meeting industry needs.
