In the post-pandemic world, Industrial Artificial Intelligence (AI) will come of age as a driving force and enabler of innovative operational applications for capital-intensive industries. Fuelled by significant volatile market forces, this new normal will be anything but business as usual. Combined with shifts in new technologies such as 5G and even 6G networks, the transformational impact of Industrial AI is unprecedented. Companies need to adopt a business-first mentality and applying AI technology to domain-specific industrial challenges, by focusing on critical outcomes. With workforce shifts and a resulting loss of domain expertise, there is an increased adoption of AI, Industrial IoT and automation across these industries.

5G networks can provide accelerated industrial connectivity to potentially one million connections per square kilometre. This is expected to support implementation of advanced industrial IoT applications, as large networks of sensors can be deployed to collect data across distributed assets and plants. This data is crucial for the application of artificial intelligence (AI) in analysis and decision-making.
