Al Called Game-Changer for Oil/Gas Industry On Par With Shale Revolution

摘要

Thor Schueler believes artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to transform the energy industry on the same scale as the shale revolution has. On the sidelines of the fourth annual Machine Learning in Oil & Gas conference in Houston last week, Schueler - regional innovation lead for Avanade - described to Energy Intelligence a world that includes AI systems monitoring gas and oil wells along with the workers who are operating them, to help ensure reliability and avert accidents. Avanade is a joint venture of Accenture and Microsoft. "The age we are in could be called the fourth industrial revolution," Schueler said. "Everything will change. And that change has already started."
