This is the future: Factory Automation using the very bare minimum amount of humans: The Hive. Receive customer orders online, process, find and pick the products, fill the bins, packaging (finally some humans here), and shipping. Combining the most advanced positioning systems, AI and advanced automation systems. https://lnkd.in/dx4FVeeB

In the modern factory, you will often find aptly named collaborative robots or cobots, working alongside humans on assembly lines - performing repetitive, physically demanding, or hazardous tasks. Innovations in technologies such as AI and machine learning algorithms, and breakthroughs in product design are pushing the boundaries of next-gen cobots - making them smarter, more precise, and easier to scale and customize.

In an article about practical implementations of AI for businesses, Business Insider highlighted how Suffolk uses AI to keep workers safe on our jobsites. The article explores our data-centric approach toward safety, including our predictive safety solution called Newmetrix, which has helped drive a 25 percent improvement in Suffolk's total recordable incident rate over the past year.

In our next installment of “The Memo,” we look at the second major theme that emerged from the 2023 DealBook Summit: “When Will The Robots Be In Charge? And Will You Be Ready?” A.I. was a key focus of the Summit as several speakers were asked to predict its future impact. Despite varying opinions from today’s most consequential leaders, the reality is that if you’re not starting to think about how to leverage A.I. (or survive it), you risk being left behind. In “The Memo,” we share actionable advice for how marketers can get started using A.I. Learn more here: https://nyti.ms/41KK2OT

Really excited to finally share our review paper on "Fast and flexible multiagent decision-making", an advance version of which is now available online in Annual Reviews of Control, Robotics, and Autonomous Systems, with final version to appear in May 2024! This review, led by my Ph.D. advisor Naomi Leonard, is the summary of many fascinating ideas that were at the core of 5 years of my thesis work in Princeton, done in close collaboration with Naomi and with Alessio Franci of U. Liege, formerly UNAM. Abstract: "A multiagent system should be capable of fast and flexible decision-making to successfully manage the uncertainty, variability, and dynamic change encountered when operating in the real world. Decision-making is fast if it breaks indecision as quickly as indecision becomes costly. This requires fast divergence away from indecision in addition to fast convergence to a decision. Decision-making is flexible if it adapts to signals important to successful operation, even if they are weak or rare. This requires tunable sensitivity to input for modulating regimes in which the system is ultrasensitive and in which it is robust. Nonlinearity and feedback in the decision-making process are necessary to meeting these requirements. This article reviews theoretical principles, analytical results, related literature, and applications of decentralized nonlinear opinion dynamics that enable fast and flexible decision-making among multiple options for multiagent systems interconnected by communication and belief system networks. The theory and tools provide a principled and systematic means for designing and analyzing decision-making in systems ranging from robot teams to social networks."
