Artificial Intelligence has reached the point where\u00a0it\u00a0is being productively applied to a wide range of\u00a0disciplines. \u00a0Consider supply chains. Artificial Intelligence can optimize supply chain logistics to match sales and customer demand.<\/p>\n

IDC Manufacturing Insights<\/a> predicts that within five years that 50 percent of manufacturing supply chains will be robotically and digitally controlled and able to provide direct-to-consumer and home shipments.<\/p>\n

Asia Outlook Magazine<\/a> wrote that “the latest robots have the ability to learn how to complete multiple jobs, so they can be plugged in practically anywhere along the supply chain. AI\u2019s ability to be flexible, particularly in manufacturing processes, will take AI to the mainstream as its return on investment (ROI) will become clear to stakeholders.”<\/p>\n

Alessandro de Luca<\/a>, CIO of German-based\u00a0Merck, said that the supply chains will begin to function like self-driving cars. \u00a0He told the Wall Street Journal <\/a>\u00a0that “the supply chain will go from very intense human interventions to very digitally interconnected.”<\/p>\n
