As the manufacturing sector navigates the evolving landscape of digital transformation, artificial intelligence is emerging as a pivotal force reshaping engineering workflows. In this session, Ayora Berry will explore how AI is becoming a competitive advantage for manufacturers—scaling knowledge, reducing repetitive tasks, and unlocking innovation across the product lifecycle. Drawing from real-world applications and lessons learned, the presentation will showcase intelligent digital workers (AI agents) that advise, assist, and automate engineering tasks. Attendees will gain insights into agent maturity frameworks, use cases spanning CAD, PLM, and ALM, and how AI is enabling a connected digital thread. This talk will also address the challenges of AI adoption, governance, and the path toward responsible, enterprise-grade deployment. Whether your organization is digitally transformed or still a work in progress, this session will offer a forward-looking perspective on how AI can accelerate engineering excellence.
