- 5:15I

- 5:22some
- 5:23sort
- 5:23of
- 5:23optimization
- 5:23using
- 5:24math
- 5:24models.
- 5:25Right.
- 5:25But
- 5:25as
- 5:25far
- 5:26as
- 5:26true
- 5:26AI,
- 5:27it's
- 5:27still
- 5:27fairly
- 5:28limited
- 5:28in
- 5:29its
- 5:29use.
- 5:30I
- 5:30mean,
- 5:30it's
- 5:30mostly
- 5:30the
- 5:30bigger
- 5:31players
- 5:31that

- 5:35good
- 5:35data
- 5:36and
- 5:36have
- 5:37their
- 5:37data
- 5:37structured
- 5:38in
- 5:38a
- 5:38way
- 5:38that
- 5:38the
- 5:39AI
- 5:39can
- 5:39leverage
- 5:39it.
- 5:40What
- 5:41keeps
- 5:41the
- 5:41smaller
- 5:42players
- 5:42from
- 5:43going
- 5:43all
- 5:44in
- 5:44on
- 5:44this?
- 5:44It
- 5:44seems
- 5:44like
- 5:45it'd
- 5:45be
- 5:45even
- 5:45more
- 5:45advantageous
- 5:46to
- 5:46somebody
- 5:47like
- 5:47that
- 5:47who
- 5:47doesn't
- 5:48have
- 5:48the
- 5:48labor
- 5:49bank
- 5:49bandwidth.
- 5:50I
- 5:50mean,
- 5:51part
- 5:51of
- 5:51it
- 5:51is
- 5:51the,
- 5:52you
- 5:53know,
- 5:53is
- 5:54the
- 5:54structuring
- 5:54of
- 5:55your
- 5:55data.
- 5:55Like,
- 5:55if
- 5:55it's
- 5:56not
- 5:56structured
- 5:56properly,
- 5:57okay.
- 5:57It's
- 5:58hard
- 5:58for
- 5:58these
- 5:58models
- 5:58to
- 5:59be
- 5:59effective,
- 6:01you
- 6:01know,
- 6:01and

- 6:06You.
- 6:06Even
- 6:06the
- 6:07smaller
- 6:07players
- 6:07are

- 6:08but
- 6:08maybe
- 6:08they're

- 6:09it
- 6:09more
- 6:11as
- 6:11a

- 6:12recommendation.
- 6:12So
- 6:13it's
- 6:13not
- 6:13necessarily
- 6:14completely
- 6:14embedded
- 6:15into
- 6:15their

- 6:15Jet.
- 6:16It's

- 6:39in
- 6:40what
- 6:40they're

- 6:42Is

- 6:46I
- 6:46mean,
- 6:46it
- 6:47should
- 6:47be,
- 6:47you
- 6:47know,
- 6:47a.
- 6:48I
- 6:48think
- 6:48as.
- 6:48As
- 6:49AI
- 6:49gets
- 6:49more
- 6:49advanced,
- 6:49it's
- 6:50able
- 6:50to
- 6:50adapt
- 6:50better.
- 6:51Should
- 6:51be
- 6:51able
- 6:51to
- 6:51do
- 6:51either
- 6:52one,
- 6:52right?
- 6:52Yeah,
- 6:52it
- 6:53really
- 6:53should
- 6:53be
- 6:53able
- 6:53to
- 6:53do
- 6:53either
- 6:54one.
- 6:54Yeah.
- 6:55Right.
- 6:56Well,
- 6:57let's
- 6:58talk
- 6:58a
- 6:58little
- 6:58bit
- 6:58too
- 6:59about
- 6:59vision
- 6:59and
- 7:00perception,
- 7:00John.
- 7:01Can
- 7:01you
- 7:01explain
- 7:02kind
- 7:02of
- 7:03how
- 7:03that's
- 7:04coming
- 7:04into
- 7:04play?
- 7:06Sure.
- 7:06So
- 7:07vision
- 7:07is,
- 7:07you
- 7:07know,
- 7:07we
- 7:08view
- 7:08that
- 7:08as
- 7:08like
- 7:08foundational
- 7:09for
- 7:10getting
- 7:10to
- 7:11this.
- 7:11You
- 7:11know,
- 7:11people
- 7:12talk
- 7:12about
- 7:12lights
- 7:12out
- 7:13warehouse,
- 7:13where
- 7:13it's
- 7:13a
- 7:13very
- 7:14autonomous
- 7:14run
- 7:15warehouse.
- 7:15Right.
- 7:16So
- 7:16optimization
- 7:17would
- 7:17be
- 7:17a
- 7:18big
- 7:18part
- 7:18of
- 7:18that.
- 7:18Vision
- 7:19would
- 7:19also
- 7:19be
- 7:20a
- 7:20huge
- 7:20part
- 7:20of
- 7:20that.
- 7:20And
- 7:21that's
- 7:21really
- 7:21about,
- 7:23you
- 7:23know,
- 7:24using
- 7:24cameras
- 7:24and
- 7:24sensors
- 7:25to
- 7:26process
- 7:27information
- 7:27and
- 7:27make
- 7:28decisions
- 7:28in
- 7:28real
- 7:29time.
- 7:29So
- 7:30right
- 7:30now
- 7:30that's
- 7:30very
- 7:31limited
- 7:31in
- 7:31the
- 7:31scope
- 7:32of
- 7:32how
- 7:32that's
- 7:32being
- 7:32used.
- 7:33So
- 7:33you've
- 7:33got
- 7:35like
- 7:35process
- 7:35integrity.
- 7:36Say
- 7:36you
- 7:37have,
- 7:39you
- 7:39know,
- 7:40a
- 7:40tote
- 7:40on
- 7:40a
- 7:41conveyor.
- 7:41Is
- 7:41it
- 7:41positioned
- 7:42appropriately
- 7:42on
- 7:42the
- 7:43conveyor?
- 7:43That's
- 7:43not
- 7:43going
- 7:43to
- 7:44create
- 7:44an
- 7:44issue
- 7:44downstream.
- 7:45So
- 7:45it's
- 7:46really
- 7:46about
- 7:46how
- 7:46can
- 7:47we
- 7:47minimize
- 7:47errors
- 7:48that
- 7:48take
- 7:48a
- 7:48lot
- 7:48of
- 7:49time
- 7:49to
- 7:49fix,
- 7:49you
- 7:50know,
- 7:50downstream
- 7:50from
- 7:50that
- 7:51process
- 7:52and
- 7:52then,
- 7:52you
- 7:53know,
- 7:53spotting,
- 7:53like
- 7:54if
- 7:54let's
- 7:54say
- 7:54there's
- 7:54a
- 7:54jam
- 7:54on
- 7:55a
- 7:55conveyor,
- 7:55the
- 7:55camera

- 7:59like
- 7:59a
- 7:59major
- 7:59downline
- 8:00event.
- 8:02And
- 8:02then
- 8:02probably
- 8:03the
- 8:03other
- 8:03area
- 8:03where
- 8:04it's
- 8:04applicable
- 8:04now
- 8:04in
- 8:04these
- 8:05kind
- 8:05of
- 8:05narrow
- 8:05use

- 20:07much.
- 20:07I
- 20:08mean,
- 20:08they're

- 20:08software,
- 20:09but
- 20:09it's
- 20:09very
- 20:09easily
- 20:09attainable
- 20:10software
- 20:10too.
- 20:11So.
- 20:11So,
- 20:11John,
- 20:11with
- 20:12that
- 20:12said,
- 20:12what
- 20:12are
- 20:12the
- 20:12main,
- 20:13what

- 20:17and,
- 20:17and,
- 20:18and
- 20:18going
- 20:18back
- 20:18to
- 20:19that
- 20:19last
- 20:19point,
- 20:19in
- 20:20what
- 20:20order
- 20:20do
- 20:20you
- 20:21think
- 20:21all
- 20:21of
- 20:21this
- 20:22will
- 20:22happen?
- 20:24Okay,
- 20:24so
- 20:24I
- 20:24guess
- 20:24maybe
- 20:25the
- 20:25first
- 20:25takeaway
- 20:25is
- 20:26AI
- 20:26is
- 20:26not
- 20:26just
- 20:26a
- 20:27single
- 20:27technology.
- 20:28You
- 20:28know,
- 20:28it's
- 20:28a
- 20:28toolkit.
- 20:29So
- 20:30we
- 20:30talked
- 20:30about
- 20:31the
- 20:31optimization
- 20:32is
- 20:32the
- 20:33brains
- 20:33of
- 20:33your
- 20:33operation.
- 20:34The
- 20:34vision
- 20:34and
- 20:34perception
- 20:35are
- 20:35the
- 20:35eyes,
- 20:36and
- 20:37LLMs
- 20:37are
- 20:38the
- 20:38way
- 20:39you
- 20:39can
- 20:39interact
- 20:40with
- 20:40your
- 20:40software.
- 20:41So
- 20:42that's
- 20:42probably
- 20:42the
- 20:42first
- 20:43one.
- 20:43And
- 20:43the
- 20:43second
- 20:43one
- 20:43is
- 20:43this
- 20:44is,
- 20:44as
- 20:44we
- 20:44talked
- 20:45about,
- 20:45this
- 20:45is
- 20:45not
- 20:46overnight
- 20:47thing.
- 20:47This
- 20:47is
- 20:48a
- 20:48journey
- 20:48that's
- 20:48going
- 20:49to
- 20:49follow
- 20:49a
- 20:49logical
- 20:50order
- 20:51based
- 20:51on
- 20:52ROI
- 20:52and
- 20:52maturity.
- 20:53And
- 20:53it
- 20:54will
- 20:54take
- 20:54time.
- 20:55Some
- 20:55areas
- 20:55will
- 20:55happen
- 20:56faster
- 20:56than
- 20:56others.
- 20:58But
- 20:59I
- 20:59think
- 20:59starting
- 21:00with
- 21:00optimization,
- 21:01AI,
- 21:01I
- 21:01mean,
- 21:01there
- 21:02are
- 21:02proven
- 21:02models
- 21:03that
- 21:03work
- 21:03for
- 21:03that.
- 21:05It's
- 21:06pretty
- 21:06measurable,
- 21:06pretty
- 21:07easy
- 21:07to
- 21:07measure
- 21:07that
- 21:08you're
- 21:08getting
- 21:08benefits.
- 21:10And
- 21:10if
- 21:10you're
- 21:10keeping
- 21:10the
- 21:10human
- 21:11in
- 21:11the
- 21:11loop,
- 21:11that
- 21:12gives
- 21:12you
- 21:12the
- 21:12confidence
- 21:13that
- 21:13if
- 21:13we
- 21:13don't
- 21:14like
- 21:14the
- 21:14output,
- 21:15we
- 21:15don't
- 21:15have
- 21:16to
- 21:16use
- 21:16it.
- 21:17And
- 21:18then
- 21:18I
- 21:18think
- 21:18the
- 21:18computer
- 21:19vision
- 21:19is
- 21:19kind
- 21:19of
- 21:20scaling
- 21:20now
- 21:21more
- 21:21in
- 21:21your
- 21:22really
- 21:22automated
- 21:23facilities
- 21:24that
- 21:24less
- 21:24so
- 21:25in
- 21:25manual
- 21:26warehouses,
- 21:26but
- 21:26really
- 21:26automated
- 21:27facilities.
- 21:27And
- 21:27I
- 21:28think
- 21:28you'll
- 21:28see
- 21:28that
- 21:29continue
- 21:29to
- 21:29scale
- 21:29for
- 21:30specific
- 21:31kind
- 21:31of
- 21:31process
- 21:32control
- 21:32to
- 21:33make
- 21:34sure
- 21:34that
- 21:34we're
- 21:34operating
- 21:35as
- 21:35efficiently
- 21:35as
- 21:35possible
- 21:36and,
- 21:36you
- 21:36know,
- 21:36and
- 21:37safety
- 21:37and
- 21:37preventing
- 21:38downstream
- 21:38issues.
- 21:38I
- 21:39think
- 21:39that
- 21:39will
- 21:40Continue
- 21:40to
- 21:41expand
- 21:41to

- 21:42use
- 21:42cases
- 21:42in
- 21:43the
- 21:43warehouse.
- 21:44And
- 21:45then
- 21:45I
- 21:45think,
- 21:45you
- 21:45know,
- 21:45next
- 21:45year
- 21:45you'll
- 21:45probably
- 21:46see
- 21:46a

- 21:46of

- 21:46generative
- 21:47AI,
- 21:47like
- 21:47just
