Your Most Critical AI Model Isn’t an LLM: It’s Your Document Pre-Processor

A decisive shift is underway for manufacturers implementing artificial intelligence. The focus is moving from the selection of large language models to the systems that prepare data for them. The accuracy and trustworthiness of any AI-driven decision—from supply chain logistics to predictive maintenance—are determined long before a query reaches an LLM. They are determined by […]

Why Stale Data Is More Dangerous Than Downtime

Most manufacturers track machine health obsessively — vibration, temperature, torque, throughput. Yet the earliest sign of trouble inside a plant rarely starts with the equipment. It starts with the data.At the Honeywell User Group in The Hague, Claudia Chandra, Chief Product Officer at Honeywell, and Chris Huff, CEO of Adlib, pointed out that the first crack in operational […]

When Industrial AI Learns the Wrong Lessons

Industrial AI learns from history — but in most plants, that history is a mess.Behind every AI pilot, there’s a decade of process data, maintenance logs, and scanned reports that were never designed to work together. These systems contain the experience of the plant — what failed, what worked, what changed — but much of […]

The Overlooked Data Problem Slowing Down Manufacturing AI

While manufacturers invest in AI and digital twin programs, the Adlib ebook “AI-Powered PLM in Manufacturing” reveals that most of the data required for those initiatives is buried in documents that machines can’t read. Across the industry, 80% of operational data is unstructured, and 90% of it is never used because it sits inside PDFs, CAD […]

AI May Be Ready for Manufacturing. But Is Manufacturing Ready for AI?

For the past few years, manufacturers have heard the same message on repeat: AI is ready for industry. But a quieter question is now being asked inside control rooms and boardrooms alike — is industry ready for AI?At this year’s Honeywell User Group in The Hague, that question came into focus. Beneath the enthusiasm around artificial intelligence […]

By 2028, Plants Won’t Just Run Themselves—They’ll Tell You Why

In a few short years, the most visible change inside industrial plants won’t be new machinery—it will be silence. No more scribbled shift logs, no frantic data reconciliation between operators, and no confusion over what happened last night. By 2028, AI-driven plants will explain themselves.From Data Entry to Data FluencyAt the Honeywell User Group in The […]
