A new wave of #AI can plan and execute tasks by itself: The AI Agent in Manufacturing
— Pascal Bornet (@pascal_bornet) 7 mars 2025
Factories are evolving. AI agents—both virtual and embodied—are pushing manufacturing toward near-autonomy. They optimize systems, enhance human-machine collaboration, and redefine what’s… pic.twitter.com/WSySac43GLA new wave of #AI can plan and execute tasks by itself: The AI Agent in Manufacturing Factories are evolving.
