Could reading instruction manuals become a thing of the past?
Simon Bennett, Aveva’s head of AI innovation, says the AI can locate where there has been, say, a power failure. It then delves into “a monster PDF manual”. From this, the AI - via a computer screen - generates different ideas of what the problem might be. It can also produce a 3D image of the affected machinery, such as a turbine, with Mr Bennett noting that engineers appreciate such visual responses to their questions.
Dozuki’s AI-powered system CreatorPro can automatically create a user guide based on an engineer making a video of him or her talking through and carrying out a process. “The user uploads the video, and a step-by-step instruction guide is automatically created,” says Allen Yeung, Dozuki’s vice president of product. “The AI chooses the text that accompanies each step, and it can automatically translate that into other languages.”
