Purpose-Built AI and Quality Data Unlock Industry Advantages

Artificial intelligence (AI) is emerging as a key driver of performance in manufacturing, but its success depends on two critical factors: purpose-built AI and AI-ready data. According to Sung Kim, Chief Technology Officer of iBase-t, most AI initiatives fail due to the use of generic AI models and poor data quality. To unlock the full potential of AI, manufacturers must invest in purpose-built systems and ensure that their data is accurate, connected, and contextualized. This approach can help companies avoid costly mistakes and achieve sustainable, scalable AI success, as reported by Industrial Equipment News.
