AI could save manufacturing from the baby boomer exodus

There's little doubt that AI is starting to eliminate jobs. Recent headlines confirm it. The trend presents a special risk to the manufacturing sector just as baby boomers retire in droves and more companies seek to build up their workforces and reverse the decades-long preference for cheap overseas labor. But there are positive aspects to AI's impact on manufacturing jobs. Many workers are learning to use it to do their jobs more effectively and prepare themselves for an AI-centric future. Companies are training AI to do work that might not get done at all amid the labor shortages. In this episode, we explore how using AI to capture and encode the skills of factory workers who are leaving the workforce could keep manufacturers in business, counteract the baby boomer brain drain and make industrial jobs more attractive to young workers. Featuring: Alex Sandoval, CEO and Co-founder, Allie Systems In today's episode, we'll also cover: How Allie's AI, analytics and data platform helps manufacturers monitor and optimize production processes. Why the software's AI copilot can also serve as a knowledge-transfer and training tool. Where AI fits in companies' existing learning management and training systems.
