AI Frontiers 2025: Driving the Next Revolution in Smart Manufacturing

Agentic AI in Manufacturing

From Copilots to Autonomous Systems

Panel discussion | September 10, 2025 | 3 PM CEST

Many manufacturers are stuck at the “AI proof-of-concept” stage — able to generate insights but unable to turn them into consistent, autonomous action. Agentic AI changes that. These systems can interpret shifting production priorities, resolve conflicts across data silos and act in real time without constant human intervention. This panel explores what it takes to move from advisory AI copilots to trusted, self-directed systems and how doing so can address chronic challenges like delayed decision-making, inefficiencies hidden in complex workflows and the growing gap between AI potential and actual plant-floor impact.
