To better meet their challenges and capitalize on future opportunities General Electric has been spending billions of dollars per year on digital technologies like AI to help save time, money and build more efficient business models into the future.

Thomas Edison would marvel at the size and reach of the power company he started. Now they are the leading player in many sectors that reach our everyday life.

GE BUSINESS VENTURES

GE ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE (AI) APPLICATIONS

They are using autonomous drones to inspect remote power transmission grids in real-time for possible problems. Artificial intelligence data models can also predict when assets will most likely fail, called predictive maintenance.

Preventing unplanned power outages is way more efficient and cost-effective over-responding when the lights go out!

HOW DIGITAL TWIN WORKS

A digital twin is simply a digital representation of a working model. With the digital twin, you can continuously collect sensor data. Then apply advanced analytics and self-learning AI, to gain unique insights about performance and operation.

DIGITAL TWIN RESULTS

A Digital Twin can predict and respond to any problem and can improve operational or financial performance.

GE is Driving Technology in these Sectors:

Just a few of the sectors the company pushing boundaries and help to bring in the 4th revolution!
