He concisely explores both the benefits and drawbacks of automation and AI in manufacturing. He illustrates how data is better than gold in an era when transactions can happen in the blink of an eye. He also addresses how climate change will affect the future of our economy and reveals that addressing environmental concerns is almost never a zero-sum game.
