Re-architecting the Industrial Spine: An Architectural Imperative for AI-Native Operations
Integrating AI into industrial operations is an architectural imperative, yet it faces a profound bottleneck in the chasm between Information Technology (IT) and Operational Technology (OT). HK Chen argues that only a first-principles re-architecture of this interface, designed for AI-native operations, can overcome the prevalent 'engineered incrementalism' and realize transformative value.
