Canvass MMRI Project
FY 2024-25 · 2024-09-09
Summary
This project aims to identify 3-5 key use cases where small and medium manufacturers can leverage AI-based data analysis combined with SME expertise to drive data-backed decisions. The project will define the most common steps users would take to solve these use cases, which will guide the development of AI Agents in MONET—assistants that help users solve problems without training. MMRI will also aid in collecting/building datasets to train these agents, ensuring accuracy and reliability. Additionally, MMRI will run a program to train manufacturers to integrate these AI agents into their operations.

Description
This project aims to identify 3-5 key use cases where small and medium manufacturers can leverage AI-based data analysis combined with SME expertise to drive data-backed decisions. The project will define the most common steps users would take to solve these use cases, which will guide the development of AI Agents in MONET—assistants that help users solve problems without training.

Description (French)
Ce projet vise à identifier 3 à 5 cas d’utilisation clés dans lesquels les petits et moyens fabricants peuvent tirer parti de l’analyse de données basée sur l’IA combinée à l’expertise des PME pour prendre des décisions fondées sur des données. Le projet définira les étapes les plus courantes que les utilisateurs prendraient pour résoudre ces cas d’utilisation, ce qui guidera le développement d’agents d’IA dans MONET - des assistants qui aident les utilisateurs à résoudre les problèmes sans formation. MMRI contribuera également à la collecte et à la constitution d’ensembles de données pour former ces agents, afin d’en garantir la précision et la fiabilité. En outre, le MMRI gérera un programme visant à former les fabricants à l’intégration de ces agents d’intelligence artificielle dans leurs activités.
