Join NWIRC, Cascadia AI and Cloud Computing, and guest speaker Alex Zare* of GeoGizmodo, LLC for a riveting discussion on the intersection of AI and machinery maintenance prediction (with applications for manufacturing and other industries).
In the past, fixing heavy machinery meant relying on years of intuition to find a problem after something went wrong. Today, multi-agent AI predicts failures in advance — analyzing sensors to cut downtime and costs.

We’ll explore the world of "Predictive Maintenance"—the science of using Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning to eliminate "downtime." Learn how "Generative AI" isn't just for chatbots; it’s being used to help maintenance teams "talk" to their equipment, getting real-time health reports that identify issues weeks before they happen. Whether you’re a business leader, an engineer, or just curious about the future of industry, come see how military-grade AI is making "broken" a thing of the past.
