What is the AI-Powered Operational Excellence course about?

Field engineers in high-risk industries face pressure to modernize, but off-the-shelf AI solutions often ignore compliance, documentation trails, and safety-critical decision chains. Implementing them incorrectly risks audit failure or operational downtime. The gap isn't willingness to adopt, it's lack of structured, domain-specific guidance that respects existing protocols while enabling efficiency.
