Podcast: How to use generative AI in manufacturing to get meaningful results

Learn why manufacturers are investing in generative AI right now (and how you can too!)

You’ve probably seen generative AI used to create images, suggest song choices and write articles (human here though!), but did you know generative AI was manufacturers’ number one area for new technology investment according to Rockwell Automation’s 9th Annual State of Smart Manufacturing Report? Do you know how manufacturers are planning to use generative AI and why generative AI in manufacturing has exploded in popularity?
