Actual Case Studies, Insights and Perspectives >>> 🚀🚀🚀 | November 2024

Ciao a tutti,

Last newsletter of the year (𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘢 𝘺𝘦𝘢𝘳!😎), in which 𝐀𝐈 𝐚𝐮𝐭𝐨𝐧𝐨𝐦𝐨𝐮𝐬 𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 [𝑨𝒈𝒆𝒏𝒕𝒊𝒄 𝑨𝑰] are definitely taking the whole stage of both 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐮𝐩𝐬' 𝐥𝐮𝐝𝐢𝐜𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐬 𝐟𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 and overall market interest...

Are we actually at the cusp of a 𝐭𝐞𝐜𝐡𝐧𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐠𝐲 𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐫𝐮𝐩𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧, or it will take some time - 𝘮𝘰𝘯𝘵𝘩𝘴, 𝘺𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘴? - for the enterprises to start grasping the benefits, at scale, of such revolutionary business applications/solutions?

Last, but not least, a primer on actual 𝐀𝐈/𝐌𝐋 vs. 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐬/𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐬 different 𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐥𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬/𝐮𝐬𝐞 𝐜𝐚𝐬𝐞𝐬, which nowadays is often (𝘰𝘯 𝘱𝘶𝘳𝘱𝘰𝘴𝘦?) 𝒏𝒐𝒕 𝒆𝒙𝒑𝒍𝒊𝒄𝒊𝒕, riding the 𝐀𝐈/𝐌𝐋 & 𝐆𝐞𝐧𝐀𝐈 hype, to guarantee exceptional funding and astonishing results, when sometimes is "𝐣𝐮𝐬𝐭" 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐬/𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐬...😉

Enjoy your holidays and I'll see you all - hopefully recharged - in 2025!

Fields ranging from robotics to medicine to political science are attempting to train AI systems to make meaningful decisions of all kinds.

🔹For example, using an AI system to intelligently control traffic in a congested city could help motorists reach their destinations faster, while improving safety or sustainability.

Unfortunately, teaching an AI system to make good decisions is no easy task

🔹Reinforcement learning models, which underlie these AI decision-making systems, still often fail when faced with even small variations in the tasks they are trained to perform. In the case of traffic, a model might struggle to control a set of intersections with different speed limits, numbers of lanes, or traffic patterns.

To boost the reliability of reinforcement learning models for complex tasks with variability, MIT researchers have introduced a more efficient algorithm for training them.

🔹The algorithm strategically selects the best tasks for training an AI agent so it can effectively perform all tasks in a collection of related tasks. In the case of traffic signal control, each task could be one intersection in a task space that includes all intersections in the city.

🔹By focusing on a smaller number of intersections that contribute the most to the algorithm’s overall effectiveness, this method maximizes performance while keeping the training cost low.

The researchers found that their technique was between five and 50 times more efficient than standard approaches on an array of simulated tasks. This gain in efficiency helps the algorithm learn a better solution in a faster manner, ultimately improving the performance of the AI agent.

“We were able to see incredible performance improvements, with a very simple algorithm, by thinking outside the box. An algorithm that is not very complicated stands a better chance of being adopted by the community because it is easier to implement and easier for others to understand,”

says senior author Cathy Wu, the Thomas D. and Virginia W. Cabot Career Development Associate Professor in Civil and Environmental Engineering (CEE) and the Institute for Data, Systems, and Society (IDSS), and a member of the Laboratory for Information and Decision Systems (LIDS).

Getting people to agree on what exactly AI agents are is a challenge, but most contend they are software programs that can be assigned tasks and given decisions to make — with varying degrees of autonomy.

In short, AI agents go beyond what a mere chatbot can do: They help people get things done.

🔹It’s still early days, but the likes of Salesforce and Google are already investing heavily in AI agents. Amazon CEO Andy Jassy recently hinted at a more “agentic” Alexa in the future, one that’s as much about action as it is words.

🔹In tandem, startups are also raising cash off the hype:

The latest of these is German company juna.ai , which wants to help factories be more efficient by automating complex industrial processes to “maximize production throughput, increase energy efficiency and reduce overall emissions.”

🔹And to pull that off, the Berlin-based startup today said that it has raised $7.5 million in a seed round from Silicon Valley venture capital firm Kleiner Perkins, Sweden-based Norrsken VC, and Kleiner Perkins’ chairman John Doerr.

Self-learning is the way

🔹Founded in 2023, @juna ai is the handiwork of Matthias Auf der Mauer (pictured above, left) and Christian Hardenberg. Der Mauer previously founded a predictive machine maintenance startup called AiSight and sold it to Swiss smart sensor company Sensirion in 2021, while Hardenberg is the former chief technology officer at European food delivery giant Delivery Hero.

At its core, juna.ai wants to help manufacturing facilities transform into smarter, self-learning systems that can deliver better margins and, ultimately, a lower carbon footprint. The company focuses on “heavy industries” — industries such as steel, cement, paper, chemicals, wood and textile with large-scale production processes that consume lots of raw materials.

🔹“We work with very process-driven industries, and it mostly involves use cases that use a lot of energy,” Matthias Auf der Mauer told TechCrunch. “So, for example, chemical reactors that use a lot of heat in order to produce something.”

🔹juna.ai’s software integrates with manufacturers’ production tools, like industrial software from Aveva or SAP, and looks at all its historical data garnered from machine sensors: This might involve temperate, pressure, velocity, and all the measurements of the given output, such as quality, thickness, and color.

Using this information, juna.ai helps companies train their in-house agents to figure out the optimal settings for machinery, giving operators real-time data and guidance to ensure everything is running at peak efficiency with minimal waste.

AWS IoT SiteWise Assistant in SiteWise Monitor Dashboard

Amazon Web Services (AWS) has launched AWS IoT SiteWise Assistant, a generative AI tool designed to enable industrial users to access and understand their operational data.

🔹AWS IoT SiteWise Assistant uses generative AI to enable users to understand and interact with their industrial data in a conversational manner, simply by typing in questions using natural language.

For example, they could click on alarms in the dashboard and ask questions like: “What assets have active alarms?” or “How do I fix the wind turbine's low RPM issue?”

AWS IoT SiteWise Assistant summarizing an Alarm on the dashboard

🔹The assistant understands the context of the industrial data, taking into consideration asset relationships, historical data and operational processes.

🔹It integrates with Amazon’s Kendra enterprise search service to look up additional relevant information, such as user manuals, standard operating procedures and other relevant documents.

Only the data and documentation managed within the user's account are used for analysis to maintain data security and privacy.

🔹Developers can integrate the assistant's capabilities into existing industrial applications using new APIs and updated IoT AppKit widgets, such as chatbots, line charts and KPI gauges.

According to Amazon Web Services (AWS) , the assistant aims to reduce downtime, facilitate process optimization and boost productivity across industrial settings by providing rapid access to data summaries, insights and solutions.

The AI agents stack in late 2024, organized into three key layers: agent hosting/serving, agent frameworks, and LLM models & storage.

Breaking down today’s tech stack for building 𝐀𝐈 𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 into 3 key layers

(1) 𝘈𝘨𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘩𝘰𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨/𝘴𝘦𝘳𝘷𝘪𝘯𝘨

(2) 𝘈𝘨𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘧𝘳𝘢𝘮𝘦𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘬𝘴
