Sure, AI is everywhere but how much of the hype translates into real value for industrial operations? In this episode of ILLUMINATOR, we sat down with Malavika Tohani and Joe Lamming of Verdantix to explore the evolving role of AI, digital twins, and IoT in manufacturing and industrial settings. They discuss how AI has been embedded in industrial workflows for years, powering predictive maintenance, anomaly detection, and process optimization. The conversation also examines digital twins—whether they’re truly bridging the gap between IT and OT or still in the early stages of adoption. Last but not least, Malavika and Joe dig into the challenges companies face when implementing AI, from data trust issues to the complexity of integration.
This episode offers a grounded, research-backed look at AI in industrial transformation, cutting through the noise to explore what’s working today and what’s still on the horizon. For industrial leaders, technology strategists, and AI enthusiasts, listen in to connect the dots between innovation and real-world application.
