Industrial AI for the Physical World: Siemens’s Peter Koerte
In this episode, Sam talks with Peter Koerte, member of the managing board and chief strategy and technology officer of Siemens, about how industrial AI is quietly transforming the infrastructure that powers everyday life.
While consumer AI grabs headlines, Peter explains how artificial
intelligence is improving factories, transportation systems, energy
grids, and buildings behind the scenes. The conversation explores what
makes industrial AI different — from the need for near-perfect accuracy
to the challenge of working with proprietary, domain-specific data.
Peter shares examples like predicting train door failures days in
advance, optimizing building energy use, and accelerating complex
engineering simulations. Peter and Sam also discuss the importance of
domain expertise, the value of data-sharing partnerships across
companies, and why transformation is as much about people and workflows
as it is about technology. Read the episode transcript here.
