Show Notes

Peggy unpacks how agentic AI (artificial intelligence) is poised to transform the manufacturing industry—and why 97% of industrial manufacturing CEOs say digital and tech transformation is now a top priority. With the sector facing a perfect storm of labor shortages, rising costs, and geopolitical pressures, she explains how AI agents can unlock smarter, more adaptive operations on the factory floor.

She also discusses:

  • The role of both virtual and embodied AI agents in reshaping industrial work.
  • A five-step plan for manufacturers to pilot, scale, and succeed with agentic AI.
  • The long-term opportunities for near-autonomous factories.
