Manufacturers, you don’t need MORE data—you just need to UNLOCK the potential of the data you already have. Right now, there’s a goldmine of insight sitting in your PDFs, user manuals, engineering drawings, and even those cryptic handwritten notes! But let’s face it—searching through hundreds or thousands of documents has always felt like hunting for a needle in a haystack…until AI stepped in. Check out the full episode (All about AI) as part of the (R)Evolutionizing Manufacturing podcast series with Scott Achelpohl, hosted by Smart Industry from Endeavor Business Media. ???????? ?????? ?????? ?????????? ?????????????????? ?? ???????????? ???? ???????? ??????????????: 1) Why is the AI landscape seemingly so exciting yet so uncertain? 2) How can small or mid-sized manufacturers in rural areas get started? 3) Any surprising AI use cases delivering unexpected value? 4) What are the top AI use cases in manufacturing? 5) What's the biggest AI miss you've seen? 6) Where do you anticipate AI will progress in the next 5-10 years? 7) What's your take on AI's role in jobs moving forward? ???????? ??????????????????? ?????????????????? ???????????????????? ?????? ?????? ???? ??????????: https://lnkd.in/eH8EXBe2 ******************************************* ?

?? Knowledge sharing with open-source #AI and #LLMs! Here’s another brilliant example of how text can be transformed into knowledge graphs using open-source #LLMs (Large Lenguage Models). Thanks Davide Costa! I am confident that this will revolutionize the way knowledge is shared and utilized in the supply chain across various industries, particularly in how #bearings are analyzed, discussed, selected, and calculated among OEMs and machine designers. By enhancing knowledge representation, automating data extraction, and improving contextual understanding, we can achieve more precise, intuitive, innovative, faster, cheaper, and scalable solutions in bearing technology. This approach will enable smarter queries, dynamic updates, and better visualizations—pushing the boundaries of what we do today and rapidly transforming how we work and interact within the value chain.

?? Why'd I accept the opportunity to serve as Michigan's first-ever Chief Innovation Ecosystem Officer? Put simply: To work with really smart, passionate people to help solve really hard, important problems. Supercharging a state's innovation ecosystem, top to bottom, across all domains - startups / founders, risk capital, universities, corporations, and government - is an awesome challenge to tackle. This new report published by the Citizens Research Council of Michigan, supported by the William Davidson Foundation, is a terrific and timely gift! It quantifies, with carefully researched evidence, Michigan's current economic innovation index, and our huge capacity for doing much more, why that matters, and some specific thoughts on how to make it happen. David Eggert of Crain's Detroit Business headlined the findings as, "Michigan lags other states in support for entrepreneurship." While this sounds concerning, on the surface, it's absolutely true! But it's also a reflection of the past, not the future. At least, so long as we don't sit idly by on the sidelines (which I certainly don't intend to do). This is precisely what led State of Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer and the Michigan Economic Development Corporation to the creation of my new role, and what drove me to jump into the arena with my team. I'm not even 100 days into the job, yet in that short time, I've met with hundreds of innovation champions who are fired up and ready to band together and make waves. They inspire me deeply. With every passing day, I grow more tremendously optimistic about the bold, ambitious innovation ecosystem strategy we're starting to build together. More to come on that later... Let's go! P.S. Help me out: What should we collectively be focused on as the top priorities? And how should we go about addressing and funding them? This isn't a black box exercise. Ideas are welcome!

Are you asking yourself how #generativeAI can impact the rolling bearing industry? Are you wondering how this technology is revolutionizing the #supplychain and how the procurement process is being transformed? Do you want to know more about how #engineering could finally be seamlessly connected to the value chain, enhancing the process of mechanical design and integrating it with other parts of the business? If so, you might want to read this article. It provides a practical perspective on Generative AI and how it can be deployed in the form of virtual engineers. Whether it's for boosting productivity by enhancing internal knowledge availability or for simplifying business interactions with your customers by helping them identify the best solutions for their specific needs, conversational agents are the new norm. Innovators, forward-thinking organizations, and companies aiming to lead their industry, as well as corporations seeking to protect their leadership positions, have an enormous opportunity to embrace these technologies. We firmly believe that tremendous value awaits those who shift their engineering practices and adapt to these changes. ProBear #BearX #JuniorBear
