People like to have control over production, but there is an "AI" that does plan what is produced next, which supplying parts have to be ordered, etc. That is why we need to keep data about part supply and orders correct. Otherwise non-sensible production tasks are generated. But this still requires someone that can trace back the reasoning of said "AI", which is included in most modern ERP solutions for quite some time now. A real help for production would actually be the QA part to check for quality problems. Visual examinations of manufactured parts is laborious and an "AI" could offer much support here and highlight any discrepancies. We have build a robot for automatic circuit board assembly. It does work and is in usage, but the solder ladies are still faster, less error prone and more flexible in case of changes.
