In the manufacturing industry, artificial intelligence (AI) may be applied in the form of systems that are capable of improving their own functioning based on data about the processes they work with. In other words, a device becomes smarter and more efficient as it learns from its environment. This is also known as machine learning.
How smart an AI system can get depends on its programming, that is, the algorithms it uses. The more work the machine can take over, the more efficient the process can theoretically become. In practice, however, this can be quite complex. The development of technologies such as deep learning and artificial neural networks can make it increasingly difficult for people to understand how these types of machines work.
Artificial intelligence opens up tremendous opportunities. It is regarded as one of the technological developments with potentially the most far-reaching consequences. There are various new AI applications that will undoubtedly have a profound impact on society.
