Artificial intelligence (AI) is driving profound change at manufacturing and the industrial sector. 

But, as Gartner® report 'Defining AI and Setting Realistic Expectations' proclaims, 'superheated rhetoric surrounding the potential benefits of artificial intelligence is inflating related expectations […] and many enterprises are struggling to put a realistic value on an important source of innovation and differentiation'.

To avoid costly project failures, executives need to manage expectations within their organisation. Looking beyond the hype, it’s pretty clear that AI is set to be a genuine game changer for the industrial sector. 

Our continually expanding use case library offers an overview of key use cases for data and AI to help you create real impact across the entire value chain. It outlines the risks and opportunities associated with AI and sets out practical use cases for your AI transformation journey.

Infographic showing the different stages of the Industrial Value Chain and how to generate value using AI in each step.
