The way we communicate, share data and use technology to act on those insights is changing – and it’s all leading to the cloud.

On In the Cloud, every week new experts will engage in a fire side chat and will bring their extensive experience in software, IT and mobile solutions straight to you, offering a glimpse into the future of cloud connectivity around.

Compute and storage are so last decade. The future of the cloud and how organizations use it is AI as its engine. That’s the sentiment of In the Cloud’s guest, Muddu Sudhakar, CEO of Aisera. Aisera offers end-to-end enterprise service automation with conversational AI. Sudhakar sat down with host Hilary Kennedy to share his perspective.

Sudhakar has said he’d never write a check for compute or storage. Rather, he believes the next wave is really about service delivery models and AI.

“It’s an opportunity, not a risk. Automating simpler tasks empowers people to do more and deliver a better work-life balance.” – Muddu Sudhakar

“In the next five years, 70 percent of workloads for the enterprise will be in the cloud,” Sudhakar said. “That’s your cost savings, that’s where you’ll see economies of scale, and that’s where all the growth will happen.”

Sudhakar encourages companies to embrace AI, not for short-term survival but the future. It’s been a gamechanger for customer service. “Automating customer service is possible, and you want to do it with AI,” he added.

While the shift to remote work accelerated the adoption of customer service automation, Sudhakar doesn’t think it will change post-pandemic. He also talked about whether AI was a job killer. “It’s an opportunity, not a risk. Automating simpler tasks empowers people to do more and deliver a better work-life balance.”

Personalization is also a big trend in automated customer service, specifically with chatbots. Chatbots are learning from data and from that know what people like. “They can tailor to your needs and likes. They will only get better at understanding behavior and sentiment,” Sudhakar noted.

Chatbots and digital assistants are changing the way people think about AI, realizing it’s not some unknown, sentient technology. “It’s not the Terminator. It can help people do higher-level things; we just need conditions around it.”

ORAFOL halved lens inspection time using Zebra AI machine vision

ORAFOL halved lens inspection time using Zebra AI machine vision

ORAFOL Fresnel Optics automated inspection of its Fresnel lenses with Zebra AI machine vision, and Zebra reports that inspection time fell by half. A standard camera could be used, as Zebra's Aurora software is compatible with any camera. A bespoke optical turret had to be developed for the complex microstructures.

  • 01Zebra says Aurora works with any camera and that a standard camera was sufficient; the bespoke work was a custom optical turret for the microstructures.
  • 02Writing tolerances into the inspection system turns accept-or-reject into a fixed rule. That rule drives the consistency gain, which matters as much as the speed.
  • 03The sharper scoping question for small, finely structured parts is who designs the fixture and lighting, and how that is priced separately from software and camera hardware.

Qbic lists, adds cloud plan for ARM office devices

Qbic lists, adds cloud plan for ARM office devices

Taiwanese industrial PC maker Qbic Technology began trading and closed its first session up more than 10%. Its products range from meeting-room booking panels to smart access control and digital signage. The company is building a Cloud Remote Device Management platform so it sells managed devices along with the hardware. That puts a fleet console on the buyer's checklist.

  • 01One booking panel outside a conference room is a gadget; every panel, door reader and sign across a building is a fleet, and Qbic wants to be the one watching it.

62% of summit respondents pick training and digital work instructions

62% of summit respondents pick training and digital work instructions

At the Connected Worker Manufacturing Summit, 62% of polled attendees ranked training, skills or digital work instructions first. Lincoln International reads the market as moving toward AI-driven execution. That puts more weight on competency data and measurable outcomes like downtime and labor productivity.

  • 01Once skills data decides who gets scheduled on a line or cleared to run a machine, a training-completion checkbox stops being good enough.
  • 0256% of summit respondents point to reduced downtime or better labor productivity as the biggest help today, so connected-worker business cases will likely need to be framed in those plant metrics rather than feature lists.
  • 03Useful vendor questions: what legacy workflow does it replace, and how will skills data connect to ERP, EAM, MES and HCM systems?
