What was once the story found in science fiction novels has increasingly taken the world by storm. Everything from the ads you see online to advancing car technology is driven by artificial intelligence. In this episode of Infinite IoT, host Mat Ackley spoke with Lumenci CEO Harish Daiya to discuss the evolution of AI industrial deployment and more.

Daiya grew up in India with a passion for math. Eventually, he graduated with an Engineering degree in Computer Science and after several years of early work, moved to the US where he worked in a variety of businesses before co-founding Lumenci.

A serial entrepreneur and blogger with a passion for innovation, 12+ years of experience in technical consulting for IP litigation and licensing, and a recently accepted member of the prestigious Forbes Business Council, Daiya’s expert insights into AI deployment are fascinating for anyone interested in AI regardless of their existing knowledge.

With companies continuously looking for ways to reduce costs and increase profitability, vertical AI solutions provide start-ups with the opportunity “to build these vertical AI companies with a specific business use case in mind,” said Daiya. Vertical AI solutions can be based on Horizontal AI solutions while also being designed to target specific business challenges.

But to begin, Daiya provides a brief history of how AI came to be. “If we look back at the evolution of AI, AI actually evolved in the largest tech companies – Google, Microsoft, IBMs of the world – because they had a lot of data at their disposal and also good resources to use that data for specific use cases and business problems.”

Google Brain is an example of a horizontal, general-purpose AI solution that can be used by any company. And with the horizontal solutions, most of the research has been done so the larger organizations are building on what already exists. And with that, “there is also now room for start-ups to build these vertical AI companies with a specific business use case in mind” and that’s where Lumenci comes into play.

Listen in to learn more about the challenges of AI industrial deployment and how Lumenci helps companies define, develop, and deploy AI solutions for any industry, to address any challenge.

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.
  • 03A useful vendor question for any connected-worker pitch: which legacy workflow does this replace, and which system of record (ERP, EAM, MES or HCM) owns the skills data afterward?

ODVA's CIP Security spec earns IEC 62443 Security Level 3 certification

ODVA's CIP Security spec earns IEC 62443 Security Level 3 certification

TÜV Rheinland certified ODVA’s CIP Security specification for EtherNet/IP against IEC 62443-4-2 at Security Level Capability 3. ODVA says this can simplify the compliance path for manufacturers and gives engineers a named level to specify. Plant buyers still need to verify which products implement it.

  • 01CIP Security now carries an IEC 62443-4-2 Security Level Capability 3 certificate, giving engineers a named security level to write into EtherNet/IP device specifications.
  • 02The certificate covers the specification, so the useful purchasing question becomes whether a specific drive, valve or I/O block actually implements CIP Security and how its maker documents that.

Nvidia puts a Vera Rubin AI factory in a shipping container and says it can go live in 14 days

Nvidia puts a Vera Rubin AI factory in a shipping container and says it can go live in 14 days

Nvidia introduced DSX POD, a containerized reference design that standardizes assembly of Vera Rubin AI factory blocks offsite before delivery, aiming to reduce onsite deployment work from six months to roughly two weeks. Partners build, test and cable complete systems in containers; sites still must handle land prep, power generation, water supply and external connectivity in parallel.

  • 01Containerized assembly moves factory-critical tasks like cabling, loop flushing and commissioning offsite, converting unpredictable project work into repeatable products with test records.
  • 02Power enters each core container at 800 volts DC; sites must engineer upstream generation and conversion. Cooling is liquid only; containers handle internal plumbing while sites supply water and heat rejection.
  • 03Deployment time depends on parallel site preparation: land, foundations, power and external connectivity must be ready before container arrival; on-site work is reduced, not eliminated.
