Challenges with developing and deploying AI models and applications in industrial systems

Abstract

The adoption of artificial intelligence into industrial settings promises notable enhancements in productivity, quality, efficiency, competitiveness, and innovations. However, transitioning AI models from concept to full-scale industrial applications involves various complexities and challenges. These challenges are not only technical but also extend into the ethical and regulatory realms, calling for a comprehensive approach to AI integration. This paper examines the diverse hurdles faced during developing and deploying AI applications in the industrial domain. It addresses challenges in collecting the right data, construction of AI models, and ensuring that these models work accurately and responsibly when deployed in real industrial environment. Furthermore, the paper presents strategic recommendations, underscoring the necessity of ethical considerations and regulatory compliance to effectively overcome these obstacles. We provide guidelines aimed at maximizing AI's benefits in industrial environments while minimizing potential risks.
