Today we’re publishing an exclusive interview with Geir Engdahl, Co-Founder and CTO, AI at @CogniteData .

A very sharp conversation on why industrial AI usually doesn’t fail at the model layer, but on the plant floor.

We talked about:

Why impressive AI pilots often never survive real operations

What “context” actually means when mistakes can become dangerous

Where industrial agents should recommend, automate, or stay out

Why the gap between a working demo and a trusted system is massive

And Geir’s bold 2028 prediction for industrial companies without AI-driven process optimization

One of the most sober and least hype-driven conversations I’ve had this year about AI in the real world.
