According to Reuters, small and medium-sized companies in Germany are turning to automation as the gradual exit from the workplace of Germany's post-war "baby boom" generation tightens the labor squeeze. Can we expect to see the same thing here in the U.S., and will further increases in automation create a new boon for wholesale distributors? This week, Kevin and Tom are joined by Mahesh Yengaswami, a Director of Global Channel Sales at 3M, to take an in-depth look at the rise of robot and AI automation in manufacturing. We also look at the recent international agreement to a code of conduct for companies developing advanced artificial intelligence systems, as governments seek to mitigate the risks and potential misuse of the technology.
