Ein Agent für die Zelle

About this episode

The episode discusses the impact of AI agents and generative AI on industrial automation with expert Tobias.

In this episode, I sit down with Tobias, a robotics and automation expert, to unpack what AI agents and generative AI mean for the future of industrial automation. We explore how combining human expertise with advanced agents can optimize production cycles, break down technological silos, and open new possibilities for greenfield automation projects. From hands-on case studies to the hurdles of legacy systems, we dig into what works today, what doesn’t, and where the next breakthroughs might come from. I share insights from our own experiments—what happens when you let an AI agent optimize a real automation cell, and why, for now, human know-how still matters. If you’re curious about the practical realities of AI in production lines and what’s hype versus what’s already delivering value, this conversation is for you.
