With the goal of inspiring companies that are considering making the leap to AI, the Strategic Forum on Artificial Intelligence showcased concrete projects, with more than a dozen panelists across a range of industries presenting their artificial intelligence initiatives, several of which were developed with Scale AI’s support.

Among them, Pierre Dodin, Senior Data Scientist at Bombardier and Frédérick Riel, Director of Lion Energie and Lion Beat at Lion Électrique, participated in the panel on the application of AI in logistics and transportation. For them, the successful application of AI depends on the quality of data analysis processes, and above all on collaboration with partners who are experts in the field. “We needed a more robust process. Thanks to the data engineers and developers at IVADO Labs, we have been able to build, compile and industrialize all the knowledge. We can now have more stable inventory management processes,” says Mr. Dodin, emphasizing the company’s need for data intelligence and the important role collaborators play in achieving results.

Where Lion Électrique is concerned, the partnership with Géotab has enabled the implementation of a powerful real-time data collection process on trucks. “Lion has integrated telemetry on vehicles, which helps us improve our R&D approach and better understand the issues based on the results of the data analysis,” says Riel.
