Connected Manufacturing Forum - Industrial Data Problem, Contextualization, and Generative AI

I had the pleasure of attending the Connected Manufacturing Forum, hosted by Worldwide Business Research (WBR), in Atlanta, Georgia this past June. The event brought together leaders representing various fortune 500 manufacturing companies to discuss challenges, initiatives, and opportunities surrounding connected manufacturing.

One key insight I gained from the event is that manufacturers in continuous process, batch, and discrete manufacturing are understanding the challenges associated with making sense of the vast amounts of data generated across IT, OT, and Engineering, which is the industrial data problem. Accessing and contextualizing data across varying source systems is key to realizing the value of the data and is a prerequisite for generative AI capabilities (LLMs).

This is the exact problem Cognite solves. Now having just launched Cognite AI and Industrial Canvas, Cognite now enables manufacturers to rapidly embed AI-powered algorithms into operational workflows.

Cognite AI is a groundbreaking AI accelerator specifically designed for industrial data and value realization. One notable feature, Industrial Canvas, provides a generative-AI powered user experience within Cognite Data Fusion (CDF) and enables users to explore, collaborate, and create with ease.

These are exciting times for the manufacturing industry, and Cognite is proud to lead the way in addressing the industrial data problem and helping our customers harness the power of AI to contextualize their data - you can learn more about how we are doing this on our Cognite Product Tour: Data Contextualization Masterclass. If you have any questions or would like to learn more about how Cognite solves the industrial data problem and how we empower our customers to deploy use cases at scale and speed, please don’t hesitate to reach out.
