How Organizations are Using AI and Digitization to Operate More Efficiently, Safely, and Sustainably

In this episode of the Futurum Tech Webcast, host Shelly Kramer is joined by Jeffrey Hausman, Product Officer at Samsara, for a conversation focused on how organizations are using AI and digitization to operate more efficiently, safely, and sustainably.

In the last decade, we've gone through a period of unprecedented change. Everything is connected. Organizations have trillions of data points at their fingertips to make decisions faster, increasing productivity and efficiency in the process. But it can often feel overwhelming — and with good reason. Hausman shared that there are some 4+ trillion data points collected annually, and 2+ million total IoT devices deployed globally, and those numbers are growing at a rate that is mind-blowing. And that velocity? It's absolutely not slowing down. So, what can organizations do to make sure that they are capitalizing on their data and preparing for whatever change is ahead? This is exactly what Jeff and Shelly discussed as he shared insights from his team at Samsara, the role Samsara's Connected Operations Cloud is playing, the successes their customers are having, and what's ahead as AI continues to evolve.

Their conversation covered:

•           An overview of Samsara and how its product offering, the Connected Operations Cloud, helps customers solve real-world problems through digitization so they can operate more efficiently, safely, and sustainably.

•           How organizations can think about data differently, and make sure they're capitalizing on the data they have and preparing for the changes ahead.

•           How the Connected Operations Cloud solution handles third-party integrations to help drive the right outcomes, offering significant competitive advantages.

•           Jeff shares some examples of customer success stories using Samsara's solution, highlighting how digitization through the Connected Operations Cloud solution has solved significant challenges in physical operations.

•           We discuss what challenges customers are facing in the year ahead, and what the biggest opportunities are for digitization in helping surmount those challenges, as well as the increased pressure to improve sustainability. 

Last but never least, Jeff and Shelly discuss what Samsara is seeing with regard to how AI is evolving in their space and offering unique advantages to their customers, as well as the importance of data privacy for those customers now and in the future.
