The Dawn of the Agentic Robot: Moving to Decision-Making in Industrial AI
· Source: supplychainbrain.com
In short
The article discusses the transition from collaborative robots to agentic AI systems in industrial and supply chain sectors, where robots are evolving from repetitive task performers to autonomous decision-makers. It highlights how large language models and vision language models enable robots to learn from video inputs and technical documentation, particularly excelling in quality inspection tasks like welding and forging. While robots can now identify defects and create repair orders autonomously, they still lack human-like intuition for complex physical repairs requiring on-the-fly adjustments.
