What I want to hear from marketing people is not that their products have built-in artificial intelligence (AI), or even Generative AI. What is more interesting is a real use for the technology. The world has been filled with technologies over the centuries that never really made it into something usable by the population. The pitch was, where and why manufacturing businesses need to adopt AI to remain relevant and boost productivity.
