Revolutionising industry: How AI and quantum computing are transforming manufacturing and mining
Industries like mining and manufacturing may often be perceived as traditional, but they are rapidly evolving thanks to groundbreaking technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI) and quantum computing.
How manufacturers can mitigate the rising dangers of natural disasters
Australians are familiar with natural disasters like heatwaves, bushfires, droughts, floods, severe storms, and tropical cyclones. According to the Climate Council, 84 per cent of Australians have been directly affected by at least one climate-fuelled disaster since 2019(1).
Building resilience as manufacturing requirements become more complex
The industrial machinery and heavy equipment manufacturing sector is critical not only for its direct outputs, machines, and equipment that pave the way for construction, agriculture and manufacturing but also for its crucial role in economic development and innovation.
AI driving data centres to the edge
In the past year, artificial intelligence (AI) has surged forward like a digital renaissance, echoing the rapid and transformative rise of the Internet in the late 1990s. It has revolutionised industries and redefined our daily lives with extraordinary speed – and its impact is set to grow even more substantially in the coming years.
