West Conshohocken, PA — ASTM International is exploring a possible technical committee on artificial intelligence in manufacturing systems – and is inviting all interested parties to a meeting.
The meeting is set for 9 a.m. Eastern on March 5 at ASTM’s offices in West Conshohocken, PA. A networking reception is scheduled for 6 p.m. Eastern on March 4.
AI is “increasingly embedded in manufacturing equipment and production environments, often without shared definitions, performance expectations or validation norms,” the standards organization says in press release. “Without coordinated standards development, this fragmentation can create risk, inefficiency and uncertainty. ASTM International is uniquely positioned to address this gap by serving as a neutral, consensus-based forum for applied, sector-specific standards.”
Among the objectives of the meeting:
- Identify priority areas where standards are needed
- Assess stakeholder interest and determine an appropriate path forward for standards development activity
“The program will include opening remarks and context-setting discussions that will focus on applied challenges such as AI at the equipment and system level; data, models and decision-making in production environments; interoperability, validation, safety and trust; and areas where standards are missing, unclear or misaligned,” the release states.
Anyone interested in attending the meeting is asked to register online.
