AI for the Real World

Accelerating the industrial AI revolution

For more than a century, electricity transformed our world in ways once unimaginable, reshaping industries and improving daily life for billions. Today, we stand at the dawn of a new transformation, one of equal magnitude: the era of artificial intelligence.

What is industrial AI?

AI is coming to the factories that build our goods, the grids that power our homes, the trains that move our economies, and the hospitals that keep us healthy. This is industrial AI, and it holds the power to improve every aspect of the everyday, for everyone, in tangible ways.

Our new Digital Twin Composer brings the industrial metaverse to life. See how we're empowering companies to build, test, and optimize in a virtual world before breaking ground in the real one.

Using AI to expand what is humanly possible

At Siemens, people are at the heart of our artificial intelligence (AI) initiatives. AI empowers our thinking, planning, designing, and decision-making processes, handling data and programming tasks that would otherwise require thousands of human hours. By integrating AI into our factories and operations, we enhance our capabilities across infrastructure, manufacturing, and energy delivery. Our expertise in AI also helps other companies advance their smart manufacturing, focusing on digital twins, automation, and quality control. This is how we deploy AI with purpose.

AI is revolutionizing digitalization, offering unparalleled advancements in metrics and analytics through its ability to process vast amounts of data. At Siemens, AI is integral to our predictive maintenance strategies, enabling machines to learn and optimize their actions via AI-powered reinforcement learning. This technology also simplifies complex programming requirements, enhancing production efficiency and accelerating decarbonization efforts.

Using AI with true purpose is AI for real

We stand at the intersection of powerful transformations shaping America's future: the pressing need to modernize our energy infrastructure, the enabling of a U.S. manufacturing resurgence, and developing the workforce to power that resurgence. At Siemens, we see this moment clearly - a pivotal opportunity to harness purposeful AI.

AI & Energy

The great need for AI in energy delivery

At Siemens, we understand that energy equates to prosperity; it's the lifeblood of economic growth and industrial innovation. Global electricity demand is projected to triple by 2050. That's why Siemens is deeply committed to using industrial AI to ensure energy availability precisely when and where it's needed. We’re employing AI technology specifically designed to resolve America's energy complexities, technologies like Gridscale X, part of Siemens Xcelerator, that operates with a modular software that uses AI and digital twins to integrate with existing IT and OT systems, paving the way for autonomous grid management, optimizing planning, operations, and maintenance.

AI & Manufacturing

AI will help transform manufacturing

The industrial tech sector is the manifestation of tech and industry fusing together, a vision that becomes reality particularly within the manufacturing sector. Industrial AI helps workers—from the smallest manufacturer to the largest—unlock vast troves of unused data to scale, compete, and innovate like never before.
Digital twins powered by Siemens Xcelerator software are helping manufacturers create virtual replicas of and simulate physical products, systems, and processes, thus boosting efficiency.

AI empowers the American workforce

In addition to improving products and optimizing processes, industrial AI enables people to use data to be more productive, more efficient, and more responsive to the tasks and situations they encounter in their roles. Generative AI makes these tools even more intuitive, especially through the Siemens Xcelerator platform. Instead of needing specialized skills, people can talk to machines using natural language, which creates opportunities to draw people off the sidelines and into well-paying careers in industry and infrastructure. AI-enabled industrial copilots will optimize workflows and enhance human-AI collaboration, driving productivity across industries. And Industrial AI agents will automate routine tasks, allowing human workers to focus on innovation and complex problem-solving.
