Amanda Razani interviews Arturo Buzzalino, VP of Products and Innovation for Epicor, about the impact of AI in the manufacturing industry. Buzzalino explains that while the industry is still in the early stages of AI adoption, the introduction of generative AI and large language models (LLMs) is poised to fundamentally change how humans interact with machines.
He discusses how conversational AI is being integrated into manufacturing processes to handle complex, repetitive tasks. An example is Epicor's work with a Formula 1 team to automate communications with suppliers, enabling rapid decision-making and reducing manual workloads.
