Plastic Pellets

One of the major implications of Industry 4.0 will be the application of digital procedures in process industries. Digital procedures are procedures that are accessed through a smart gadget such as a tablet or a phone. However, like paper-based procedures their usability is limited by their access. The issue of accessibility is magnified in tasks such as loading a hopper car with plastic pellets wherein the operators typically place the procedure at a safe distance from the worksite. This drawback can be tackled in the case of digital procedures using artificial intelligence-based voice enabled conversational agent (chatbot). As a part of this study, we have developed a chatbot for assisting digital procedure adherence. The chatbot is trained using the possible set of queries from the operator and text from the digital procedures through deep learning and provides responses using natural language generation. The testing of the chatbot is performed using a simulated conversation with an operator performing the task of loading a hopper car.

This chapter aims to highlight the changes that journalism in Austria should expect. The authors analyse the data collected on Austrians' habits of consuming news through intelligent virtual assistants (IVAs). Furthermore, the importance and potential of the devices run by artificial intelligence (AI), such as IVAs and natural language generation software, are highlighted. The status quo and Austrian journalists' knowledge about IVAs and their predictions about the attitude of citizens towards those devices are outlined. AI in journalism industry is not only discussed as an assistant to ease the workflow of journalists in Austria; it is also represented as a potential threat which creates filter bubbles due to personalized news consumption through IVAs.
