Greta Cutulenco, CEO and cofounder, Acerta Analytics, and Peggy Smedley talk about how discreet manufacturers can take data from AI (artificial intelligence) and do something powerful with it. She says there has been a major trend in manufacturing where machines and processes are being digitalized and there is a huge push to make data a part of every process.

They also discuss:

• What is the point in storing all that data if it isn’t being used?
• How data can help improve quality.
• How machine learning and artificial intelligence can help companies become more predictive.
