Sahitya joins our hosts, Seth Earley and Chris Featherstone, as they have an in-depth discussion about the intersection of AI and industrial manufacturing.

Key takeaways:
Rethinking AI Implementation: The importance of moving beyond simple chatbot applications like ChatGPT to realize real ROI through generative AI for sales optimization and cost savings in industrial spaces.

Phased Approach to Tech Deployment: The "crawl, walk, run" methodology along with proof-of-concept (POC) phases is crucial in acclimating users and ensuring new tools deliver tangible ROI, avoiding "shelf-ware."

Data Privacy and Security: Amidst the integration of sophisticated AI solutions, maintaining data privacy and security remains paramount.
