What is the Leading AI Integration in Industrial course about?

Traditional automation engineers are expected to deliver AI-enhanced systems without clear frameworks for integrating models into PLCs, SCADA, or edge controllers. The gap between data science and control engineering creates delays, rework, and underutilized investments. Without a structured integration methodology, even successful pilots fail to scale.
