Artificial intelligence is beginning to extend industrial automation by helping manufacturers interpret data, identify patterns and support decisions across increasingly complex operations. This edition examines practical applications of AI in manufacturing, including visual inspection, predictive maintenance, process optimization, planning and energy management. It also explores the data quality, integration, governance and human oversight required to move AI from experimentation toward dependable industrial use where reliability and operational consequences matter.
