The rise of AI is pushing data centres to their limits, with increasing demands for high-resolution telemetry and greater power capacity. As AI applications grow more complex, managing these challenges efficiently has become a critical focus for industry leaders. The quest for smarter solutions is reshaping the infrastructure landscape. Luke Dalske, COO of Radix IoT, joins the program to discuss.

AI is transforming supply chains: enhancing efficiency, demand forecasting, delivery optimisation through advanced technologies.

Supply chain issues continue to challenge industries worldwide.

AI is increasingly seen as a solution to enhance efficiency and resilience within this sector.

To understand its impact, Jyot Singh, CEO of RTS Labs, joined to share his insights.

By utilising historical data, algorithms can predict future demand, facilitating better inventory management.

Additionally, advances in generative AI further enhance these forecasts by incorporating sentiment analysis and other factors.

AI also optimises delivery routes by analysing real-time data on traffic and weather conditions, thus reducing costs.

Companies, such as UPS, utilise technologies to streamline last-mile delivery, which is the most expensive portion of the supply chain.

AI’s role extends to improving vendor management and procurement efficiency through smart contracts and data-driven decision-making.

This helps businesses assess vendor reliability and make informed choices about allocating resources effectively.

Moreover, the digital twin technology allows businesses to simulate their supply chains virtually, testing various scenarios to identify potential disruptions.

American technological research and consulting firm Gartner predicts that by 2026, 60% of global supply chains will adopt digital twin applications, enhancing their ability to manage complex logistics.

AI is revolutionising industries, with major advancements shaping 2025 and beyond. John Hodges, Chief Product Officer at AvePoint, highlights how organisations are leveraging AI to enhance user experiences and improve accessibility. However, ethical concerns remain at the forefront, with efforts underway to ensure responsible AI development. Hodges also discusses the impact of AI on the job market, emphasising how it will transform the workforce and create new opportunities. Looking ahead, he shares AvePoint’s vision for AI’s future, focusing on enhancing inclusivity, driving innovation, and fostering ethical growth in this rapidly evolving field.
