At the Columbia-IIT Bombay AI for Manufacturing (CI-AIM) Industry Conclave, Amit Sharma, MD & CEO, Tata Consulting Engineers, shared a practical perspective on the role of AI in manufacturing: its greatest value lies not in replacing human expertise, but in helping people make better decisions, solve complex challenges faster, and turn ideas into real-world outcomes. He emphasised that context, engineering judgement, and human ingenuity remain at the heart of innovation, with AI serving as a powerful enabler.
As manufacturing enters a new era, stronger collaboration between industry and academia will be critical to unlocking new possibilities and accelerating innovation.
At TCE, we see AI as a catalyst for better engineering. From simulating thousands of design possibilities to enabling smarter plant operations through cognitive digital twins, we are helping clients innovate faster, reduce uncertainty, and make more informed decisions across the asset lifecycle.
