WHAT AI AND MACHINE LEARNING REALLY MEAN FOR ROBOTIC AUTOMATION

WEBINAR
January 27, 2021 I 11:00 AM EST

Intelligent robotic solutions built on Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning are transforming physical work in eCommerce and retail enterprises today.

Many robotic solution providers, especially those focused on supply chain applications, tout AI as a foundational breakthrough that enables superior performance for their systems. But beyond the marketing hype, AI and Machine Learning are almost never adequately explained or fully understood.  What are they really?  What is real, what is fiction, and what do you need to know to ensure claims of ‘AI power’ actually deliver a benefit to your systems and operations. 

In this webinar, we cover some of the fundamentally hard-to-solve problems in building intelligent systems, share how to work around these problems, demonstrate concepts with the audience, and share insights on the successful application to AI to the automation of eCommerce fulfillment and store restocking.

Register today for this informative session.
