Dan Jeavons, president of Applied Computing, a developer of foundational AI models for industry, joins the podcast to discuss how AI can improve the chemical sector's operations and the challenges to implementing it. Jeavons - also a former executive at Shell - discusses why LLMs must be tuned for industrial operating environments, the importance of getting a workforce comfortable with AI, and where chemical makers see the greatest potential for operational optimization.

Before the chat with Jeavons, Chemical Week specialties editor Sotirios Frantzanas joins the show for a brief discussion of the Feb. 23 cover story, a deep dive into AI's impact on established industry processes.
