About this episode

The episode explores the impact of causal AI and knowledge graphs on manufacturing processes with guest Bernard from Ethon AI.

In this episode, I sit down with Bernard, co-founder of Ethon AI, to explore the seismic shift happening as machines move from simply reacting to truly understanding their own processes. We dive into how knowledge graphs, causal AI, and computer vision are transforming manufacturing—from chocolate factories in Switzerland to global giants like Siemens and Bosch. We discuss the real impact of connecting siloed industrial data, the journey from correlation to causation, and what it means for the people on the shop floor. Bernard shares concrete examples of AI-driven quality control, autonomous process optimization, and the evolving role of operators. Join me for a conversation that peeks into the future of manufacturing intelligence—and what it takes to build the digital quality engineers of tomorrow.
