[Transforming Expert Knowledge into AI] Forbes-recognized AI talent to speak! Seminar on AI in manufacturing to turn blueprints and safety know-how into 'company assets' on July 29

"If this person quits, the site won't function." In the manufacturing industry, the "crisis of technical succession" due to the aging of skilled workers and labor shortages is becoming severe. How to read blueprints, respond to equipment abnormalities, and the judgment criteria cultivated in safety management—the "skills," "intuition," and "experience" that have supported Japanese manufacturing are remaining inside individuals' heads and are being lost without being passed on. Amidst this, new AI utilization in manufacturing that turns expert knowledge into "company assets" is gaining attention. Ipros Corp. will host a lecture by Yuta Shimono, Representative Director of Mni Inc., at "Ipros AI 2026 Summer" on Wednesday, July 29, 2026. Mr. Shimono is a notable AI practitioner engaged in the social implementation of AI for manufacturing and was selected for Forbes JAPAN 30 UNDER 30 2025. In this lecture, he will explain practical approaches to transforming knowledge accumulated on the manufacturing floor into a form that can be utilized by AI.
