The Manufacturing Revolution Driven by Large Models
Context
As track curator, Steven designed a programme around how foundation models are changing manufacturing. The sessions connected frontier AI research with high-value industrial applications, from production-line decision-making to operational resilience and practical agent deployment.
The argument
“The useful unit of progress is not a model benchmark. It is an engineering workflow that becomes more reliable, faster or easier to scale.”
