Artificial Intelligence is changing faster than most of us can keep up with—and whether you love it or hate it, it's already starting to impact the welding and fabrication industry.
In this episode, I sit down with Dan Cocks from DC Built to talk about how we're actually using AI in our businesses today. From creating customer renderings and speeding up design work to building software, solving problems, and automating repetitive tasks, we share the tools and workflows that are helping us get more done with less effort.
But the conversation doesn't stop there.
We dive into the future of fabrication and discuss what happens when AI starts working alongside robotics, cobots, laser welders, CNC equipment, and automated material handling systems. Could a small shop one day have the output of a much larger company? How close are we really to that becoming reality?
Whether you're already experimenting with AI or you're still trying to figure out what all the hype is about, this episode will give you a practical look at where the technology is today—and where it's headed next.
Topics we cover:
• Using AI to create customer renderings and concepts
• Chat GPT, Claude, and other AI tools
• Prompting techniques that get better results
• Building software and automations with AI
• AI agents and workflow automation
• The future of robotic welding and fabrication
• How AI could impact small welding businesses
• Why technology is becoming more accessible than ever
If you're a welding business owner, fabricator, shop manager, or anyone interested in where the trades are headed, this is a conversation you won't want to miss.
