Joe Kaeser Quotes

I've been to so many manufacturing plants. I've yet to walk into one where I did not think AI solutions wouldn't help.

I think the next massive wave of value creation will be when you can get a manufacturing company or agriculture devices company or a health care company to develop dozens of AI solutions to help their businesses.

For decades, the pace of technological change in manufacturing has outstripped that in the economy as a whole. And, so, firms - manufacturing firms - have found it easier to continue producing by - with - reducing their workforces.

Hard systems are everything we're using right now - computers, phones, planes, the clothes you're wearing, the room you're in. Everything there involves 100% use of technology and expertise to make it, and nothing we make - including space exploration vehicles and so on - is complex. Everything we make is complicated. Nothing is self-renewing.

Our robots are signing up for online learning. After decades of attempts to program robots to perform complex tasks like flying helicopters or surgical suturing, the new approach is based on observing and recording the motions of human experts as they perform these feats.

If I had done what I was programmed to do, I would now be sitting in a car factory looking at the sizes of wheels, or wondering how to get credit to start a new factory in Russia.

Some people think technology has the answers.

When a machine can do something better and faster than a person can, I am happy to let the machine do it.

Since, however, it is immaterial whether the work is done by assistants or a machine, I decided to build a machine equivalent to an array of about 200 separating funnels.

Intelligence is the faculty of making artificial objects, especially tools to make tools.

We're making this analogy that AI is the new electricity. Electricity transformed industries: agriculture, transportation, communication, manufacturing.

Whether you're looking at manufacturing and the use of robotics or the knowledge industries, they need computer programmers.

The way AI complements people's work, it actually creates a lot of new jobs, a lot of demand. For example, if a automatic visual inspection technology helps spot flaws in manufacturing parts, I think that in some cases, this does create a lot more demand for people to come in to rework or to fix some of the parts that an AI has found to be flawed.

With Cyborg, this is a winnable fight for me.

AI will impact every industry on Earth, including manufacturing, agriculture, health care, and more.

I believe that the future is about having a whole bunch of A.I., not one A.I. We're all going to have our own personal A.I. We'll have A.I. for many fields of medicine, for many fields of manufacturing.

Smart CEOs should be thinking about AI and its impact on their respective business.

We're not going to see an exclusively robotic factory, but we will see the optimum use of robots and people.

Artificial intelligence is here and being rapidly commercialized, with new applications being created not just for manufacturing but also for energy, healthcare, and oil and gas. This will change how we all do business.

It isn't obvious and it took us a while to demonstrate that we could actually design a machine that bends.

Never send a human to do a machine's job.

If you build a robot, you're welding, machining sculpting, casting, dealing with electronics and hydraulics.

If you could make something one percent smarter than a human, your artificial attorney or accountant would be better than all the attorneys or accountants out there. You would be the richest person in the world. People are chasing that.

Artificial intelligence, machine learning... cell therapy, immunotherapy. There's just a constant stream of investment ideas we could pursue better in that fashion.

Automation is good, so long as you know exactly where to put the machine.
