The Sustainability Podcast

Kevin Smith of Canvass AI discusses how his company has made AI easy-to-use so that the industrial sector can accelerate their transformation into a profitable and environmentally sustainable industry. This starts with empowering industrial workforces to leverage data themselves – not data scientists or 3rd parties.
Thus the power of AI is put directly into the hands of engineers. Processes for industrial engineers to build, deploy and scale AI have been greatly simplified across their operations – so that they can augment their expertise with data-driven insights.
Kevin also talks about some of the world’s largest industrial companies and how they use Canvass AI to optimize processes, reduce waste, and cut their CO2 emissions.

Listen in as Ted Connell of Blue Skies AI Explores Real World Applications of Artificial Intelligence including a general discussion on the evolution and opportunities for industrial / commercial AI as well as a detailed discussion of healthcare inspection applications.
A snippet of the conversation:
Jim Frazer

What are the challenges of AI? And perhaps even before you answer that, Ted , for those of us who might not be steeped in the technology, what really is AI?

Ted Connell

That's the greatest question. Because most people out there think of AI, they think of the Terminator, and Arnold Schwarzenegger going around blowing everything up. And what they were describing there is consciousness, what AI is, is math. It's not scary. It's just math. And it's like a loop. It's like plastic. And it's like electricity, AI is going to go everywhere, because it makes everything better. So, think about your brakes in your car, your ABS brakes, remember, we got ABS brakes, I can now put a couple dollars’ worth of electronics in there and make your brakes a lot better, because they're measuring how hard they're pushing in there. They're deciding when they want to push depending on what you're trying to do and how hard you're pushing your brake pedal. But we can make your brakes better. There's no consciousness in there. It's just a mathematical equation that's watching a pressure here and a pressure there and a temperature and it's doing a mathematical calculation to say what's the optimal. So that's all AI is just math trying to optimize equations.
