How a chemical engineer built an agentic manufacturing troubleshooting assistant
About this episode
Scott Duncan discusses his journey in building an AI-driven manufacturing troubleshooting assistant and the implications for the future of industrial operations.
In this episode, I sit down with Scott Duncan, a chemical engineer who built an agentic manufacturing troubleshooting assistant – without any coding background. We dive into the real-world challenges of process manufacturing and how AI is transforming the way plant issues are solved. Scott shares his journey from hands-on troubleshooting to leveraging large language models, knowledge graphs, and real-time data for smarter, faster problem-solving. We also debate the future of domain expertise in an AI-driven world and what it means for education and workforce development. Join me as we explore the potential – and the limitations – of AI in reshaping the future of industrial operations.
