In this episode, Sam talks with Peter Koerte, member of the managing board and chief strategy and technology officer of Siemens, about how industrial AI is quietly transforming the infrastructure that powers everyday life. While consumer AI grabs headlines, Peter explains how artificial intelligence is improving factories, transportation systems, energy grids, and buildings behind the scenes. The conversation explores what makes industrial AI different - from the need for near-perfect accuracy to the challenge of working with proprietary, domain-specific data. Peter shares examples like predicting train door failures days in advance, optimizing building energy use, and accelerating complex engineering simulations. Peter and Sam also discuss the importance of domain expertise, the value of data-sharing partnerships across companies, and why transformation is as much about people and workflows as it is about technology.
