The meeting will focus on the evolution Artificial Intelligence (AI) and digital twins (DT), and their use in multiple sectors such as manufacturing, construction, transportation, smart buildings, healthcare, energy and military.
On the first day, the Digital Summit will tackle the evolution of AI and how it offers a competitive edge in many different industries. Through a use-case oriented approach, the 15 sessions will include insights from companies such as BMW, Cisco, Dell, Intel, Oracle, SAS, Rolls-Royce, Thales Group, Thyssenkrupp, and Western Digital, and experts from the Imperial College, the University of California San Francisco and the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). Together they will tackle topics such as Achieving Autonomous Intelligence with Embedded Machine Learning, AI ethics and Trustworthiness, From Automation to Autonomous Things, and The Role of Cognitive Systems as Business Intelligence Enablers.
Digital Twins will be the main theme on the second day of the Digital Summit. The conferences will feature end-users presenting experiences on how DT have improved decision making and operational efficiency.
