HÖRMANN magazine "mittendrin" with focus: AI - our new colleague

AI is becoming a driver of innovation in many industries and is paving the way for the next industrial revolution, for the next level of automation and knowledge management, but also for completely new products. AI understands our language, is constantly learning, adapts to changes in behavior and a changing environment, and helps us to make better and faster decisions. AI agents perform tasks as a person would.

In the future, AI will enable cars to drive autonomously through our cities as robotaxis, intelligent machines will make agriculture more efficient, humanoid robots will acquire human-like abilities and work together (collaboratively) with humans in production or take on care tasks in retirement homes. So-called AI agents will autonomously take over many of our current routine administrative tasks, the legal review of contracts, write complex texts or edit photos. AI will very quickly profoundly change all areas of our work and lives. Artificial intelligence is becoming a key factor for innovation and the competitiveness of companies.

In this issue of mittendrin, we give you an insight into how the HÖRMANN Digital team under the leadership of Friedrich Arnold is shaping the introduction of AI in the HÖRMANN Group and what exciting projects are currently being worked on.

In the HÖRMANN Group, we see artificial intelligence (AI) as a great opportunity to meet the challenges posed by demographic change, the shortage of skilled workers and increasing competitive pressure with "intelligent solutions" and thus actively shape the future of our business and business processes ourselves.
