🚀 **Insightful Discussion on The Future of AI in Manufacturing!** 🚀 I had the privilege of moderating a fascinating panel discussion on **"The Future of Production: AI's Influence on Manufacturing Ecosystems"** today, featuring insights from industry leaders Lalitha Indrakanti (JLR), Gaurav Kataria (ITC), and Navendu A. Agarwal (Ola). Our conversation explored some game-changing developments in the industry: ⚙️ How **AI and Automation** are reshaping traditional manufacturing processes. 📦 AI's crucial role in optimizing **supply chains** and mitigating risks. 🔮 **Future trends and ethical considerations** around data privacy, workforce dynamics, and sustainability in manufacturing. The discussion highlighted not only the immense potential AI brings to the table but also the responsibility we have in ensuring its ethical deployment. A huge thanks to our panelists for their incredible insights and to everyone who participated in this engaging session. It’s an exciting time for manufacturing, and AI is clearly set to drive innovation in ways we can only imagine. #AI #Manufacturing #SupplyChain #Automation #FutureOfWork #EthicalAI #Innovation #NTTDATA #CII #CII Telangana RamKrishna (Ramki) Samiuddin Shaik Krunal Patel (કૃણાલ પટેલ) suneetha vegasana

Unfortunately, my inference about the “third winter” of AI is receiving more and more elements that confirm it rather than refute it. We are being influenced by massive marketing campaigns to believe that AI brings productivity in a fluid and easy way. And that it is a technology that will help promote ESG concepts. What is presented as reality is the opposite. On the E side, we see more predatory mining to meet the demand for rare metals. A new agenda resurrecting nuclear energy (see Three Mile Island) and using natural resources as cooling water without control. On the S side, we are investing billions of dollars in a proposal to increase global productivity that would improve prosperity for all, but even Nobel laureate Acemoglu has already warned about the discrepancies in the theoretical calculation of this gain - in some discussions he speaks of ~0.5% while some investment banks and analysis houses speak of ~10%. This savings will be lacking in the future and the most affected side, I have no doubt, will be projects linked to social responsibility. Finally, for G, we see the imminent risk of corporate information being shared without due control because it is used to train models. Disrespect for individual privacy and general data privacy regulations. In short, we still have time to think critically and try to mitigate the effects and once again have a “winter” that will postpone the intelligent use of technology to produce prosperity, not only for big tech and its executives, but for everyone.

Another great read on how CMMI positively impacts IT capabilities and performance. Love these two sentences in particular: "CMMI has become the go-to framework globally and in India as the tool that can both effectively solve problems that have traditionally plagued software development, as well as meet future requirements." "It has proven to be effective in driving significant growth for organizations, regardless of the specific performance objectives they choose to focus on. Organizations have achieved a wide range of advancements by targeting both specific enhancements and comprehensive improvements." https://lnkd.in/e8dDYCkm

Sonata Software recently invited me to contribute at their "Building a #Resilient Workforce: Strategies for Success" event. This was a panel discussion anchored by the effervescent and impactful Shubhra Singh and my co-panelists were their CDO Suresh HP and their Head of Corporate Development Sharmila Sherikar, both exceptionally well-read and articulate leaders. With Co-travellers so named, challenge number one was not even the topic, it was getting my tongue to navigate the "S" and "Sh" sound when my geographical ethnicity does not allow for it :-) On to the topic at hand. Shubhra moderated the session extremely well with her forceful and well-directed questions making us better panelists in the process. The first question that defined the boundaries of our conversation was "Why do we need a resilient workforce?" To me, resilience is fundamentally our ability to #navigate through and bounce back from adversity. Organizations that don't anticipate adversity can perhaps do without a resilient workforce. In a world in the middle of a #climatecrisis, chasing some 17 sustainable development goals, facing an existential #AI opportunity, and growing to 10 billion people, addressing adversity is how we will progress into a very challenging future. The next question allowed us to define resilience for the 300 strong audience. How does collaborative and cross-functional teamwork contribute to resilience of individual employees. How do leaders contribute to a culture of resilience? Resilience has two core ingredients: #Strength and #Elasticity. Strength comes from the individual and the community. The strength of the community is what prevents a culture from turning toxic. Hence, I would say cross functional / collaborative teamwork is the absolute essence of resilience. Elasticity is the ability to stretch which comes from both the individual and the organisation as well as from a strong sense of purpose they carry. The difference between #toxicworkplaces and purpose driven workplaces is that the latter stretch people to their elastic limits but no more. Leaders fashion #purpose on the fertile soil of #culture. I believe that there are two extremes of #culture that leaders navigate - a sharp elbowed culture and a warm chested culture. They also navigate two extremes of purpose - the ambiguous and the ambitious. The intersection of warm chested as well as ambitious culture is where breakthrough #innovation thrives. Similarly, warm chested and ambiguous tends to give us a Don Quixotic organisation...quite well meaning but essentially useless. [Covering the entire discussion is best left for another day.] However, this forced me to dig deep and seriously introspect as a Founder to find answers and I am grateful to team Sonata for listening-in and to Rashmi Prabha, Balaji Kumar and Samir Dhir for having me over.

A clear example that GCCs today have become tech accelerators or enablers to their main group entity and are driving core Tech strategy development and decisions. Good to see Indian GCCs leading the wave in #AI engineering and advancements. #Artificialintelligence #AI #GCCs #GICs

Excellent! For accelerating customer engagements, and a greater understanding of customers decision making, i strongly believe that CDP is core to these motions going forwards. As many corporations are looking for deeper and more meaninful client collaborations, CDP can be tremendously helpful, once implemented properly. C5i can assist you in those difficult and modern segmentations plans, in the orchestration with other parts of the marketing stack. Additionally, in shaping the critical feedback loops, from the onset. Read on!
