Supply Chain Management

Supply Chain-gers

For supply chains, it’s often knee-jerk reactions to the disaster-du-jour that point out the need for rapid, tangible change. But, as we’ve recently seen, disruption in the form of pandemics, natural disasters, and transportation woes are becoming the impetus for examining what the future has in store. Here we’ll discuss a few areas where change

Machine Learning Already Optimizes Supply Chains

Doesn’t it seem that on some level machine learning is still “out there,” somewhere in the future like quantum computing? AI-based applications, machine-learning being one of them, are flooding in and supply chain is a beneficiary. Given the vast amounts of complex data supply chains create, machine learning is adept at analyzing the information, enhancing

Supply Chains—From Henry Ford to Artificial Intelligence

There is no recognizable similarity between the first supply chain in history and today’s complex and Artificial Intelligence (AI)-driven counterpart. One hundred years ago, assembly lines enabling mass production were implemented by Henry Ford, supporting the production of consistent products on a large scale. Today’s global supply chains are based on multiple organizations, processes, and

Elon Musk and the Three Little Pigs Preview Neuralink

Amidst much anticipation, Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk presented a live demonstration of NeuraLink technology.  Neuralink launched in 2016 with the goal of creating implantable brain-machine interfaces. Such technology could ultimately help humans obtain symbiosis with Artificial Intelligence (AI) but, could have many practical applications even before it reaches that level. Neuralink implants, theoretically,
