In this episode, we sit down with Troy Smithells from Xenon Tech to cut through the AI hype and get practical. We explore real world manufacturing use cases, from converting hand drawn sketches into production ready CAD files, to physical AI robots inspecting pipes, predictive maintenance through sound, and AI powered safety alerts on construction sites. Troy also breaks down why AI at scale does not belong in the cloud, what production grade AI infrastructure really looks like, and how manufacturers can move from proof of concept to real commercial outcomes. If you are wondering how AI actually delivers value on the factory floor, this episode is a must listen.
