Скачать или смотреть Smart Factory 2035 – The Impact of Generative AI on Manufacturing | Prof. Dr. Marko Bajec

In this video from Qlector Production Planning Day 2026, Prof. Dr. Marko Bajec (University of Ljubljana, Faculty of Computer and Information Science) shares his vision of how generative AI will reshape smart factories in the next decade.

What will manufacturing look like in 2035?

According to Prof. Bajec, the future smart factory will be:
• Autonomous – self-organizing systems with minimal human intervention
• Cognitive – systems that learn and adapt without constant reprogramming
• Hyper-personalized – enabling mass customization at scale
• Sustainable – supporting circular production with minimal waste

The lecture also explores:
• The difference between Industry 4.0 and the next wave of transformation
• How generative AI goes beyond prediction to generation and reasoning
• Why 80% of AI projects fail due to poor data foundations
• The importance of DataOps and structured data governance
• Practical examples in design, maintenance, quality control, and optimization

One key message stands out: Without quality data, there is no quality AI.
