Is the metaverse just the next wave of video gaming, or the future of wholesale distribution? The industrial metaverse enables more resilient supply chains and localized manufacturing through the use of existing tools such as digital twins. In an interesting contrast, four in ten people expect AI to improve work quality and creativity, while three in ten expect a deterioration. This week, Kevin and Tom take a deeper look at the metaverse, AI, and the promise that technology may (or may not) hold for the future of wholesale distribution. We also take a look at new economic data: manufacturing has slowed in 2023, yet small businesses are noticing slightly better business conditions, creating a less pessimistic outlook about the economy’s future. So why the contrast?
