Hello, everyone. My name is Matt, and I am the chief tech officer at Vistacom. Thanks for joining us for this week's segment of Dear Matt, where I answer questions submitted by you, about anything related to AV technology and our industry. My hope is to use my thirty plus years of experience in the audio visual industry to make your job a little bit easier. This week's question submitted anonymously, where do you see AI making waves in the AV industry currently and how will it make an impact in the future. So AI or artificial intelligence is making waves everywhere, not just an AV. Currently, we see a lot of AI being used for meeting spaces. Camera tracking, better tracking of the participants in the meeting, improving audio in a meeting or turning speech into text or some common use cases, things like that will improve what we call meeting equity. So making the meeting more effective for both sides of a call, for example. Ai can also take notes from the meeting and even send out action items. But that's really just the tip of the iceberg. AI in the future will continue to improve meetings, but we'll see it in a lot of air to other areas in our industry. Even at the design stage, AI can improve system designs. It could assist in troubleshooting and support of systems. So there's a lot of places where AI has yet to be applied in the AV industry. Another area is security and health care. They're great markets for AI. Any area where you need to, like, monitor something around the clock for a change of status is a good area for AI. You know, if they could be monitoring your AV systems for faults and report or provide analytics and statistics, great uses for AI. Thing with AI that to remember, though, is it does need to be trained. So somebody has to build the initial dataset of information. That we're gonna train the AI model on. And then you have to go through the process of doing all that training and then validating it and making sure it's operating pro properly. So there's a lot to be done before we can apply AI to the technology in our industry. But going forward, AI is gonna change a and our industry is gonna change a lot way beyond the AB industry though. It's gonna be part of our everyday lives. The real trick is, you know, using it responsibly, training it properly, you know, knowing when it's not providing benefits or providing false or bad information and correcting it So there's a lot of, growth and, you know, learning experiences we'll have to have as we as we move forward with, AI. But it's definitely, you know, here to stay. Well, that's a wrap for today. I'd love to answer any of your questions. There are no stupid questions here. Anything AV goes. To submit your questions, go to w w w dot vistacom inc dot com slash Dear Met, and then come back every Friday. And Watch me answer your questions. Thank you for watching, and see you next week.
