ARE YOU ATTRACTED TO THE LURE OF USING AI?

ASQ Six Sigma Forum Virtual Webinar

August 9 from 9:00 am to 10:00 am PDT

In case you missed the incredibly popular and highly rated session from the 2024 Lean Six Sigma conference, here is your chance to experience it.

The lure of Artificial Intelligence (AI) exists in many facets of our lives-- both personally and professionally.   AI is often involved in one of the top news stories of the day.  Just the mention of AI in a business report makes stock prices leap.  But really - how good is AI?  Does it always give us the correct answer?  What about the information we really need to make good decisions?  Can we trust the integrity of the data?  There are circles of quality professionals that preach about using AI for data analysis and for root cause determination.  Should we use it even if we don't understand the physics of the failure mode or the basis behind the analysis method?

This presentation by Scott Sterbenz will begin with a brief overview of AI and how to access one of the more popular engines, ChatGPT.  It will showcase situations of simple AI requests where the answer is known, but AI provides incorrect answers - even with prodding - and correct answers without prodding.  Also included will be examples of data analysis requests in AI where the proper method and analysis techniques are known, but AI provides both correct and incorrect guidance.

Just because the information comes from a computer or AI source does not mean the information or answer is of integrity.  Will AI ever really replace the quality practitioner?  Probably not for a while.  Fundamental knowledge of physics, engineering and logical thinking are still the foundation of good problem solving and AI hasn't mastered that yet.

There is no charge for this webinar, but registration is required.
