The Now, Next & Future Of AI's Impact On Warehouse Operations With Dematic's John Mabe | Spotlight Series
Description
In this Retail Technology Spotlight Series episode, John Mabe, Product Manager at Dematic, joins Omni Talk to break down the real applications of AI in warehouse operations—separating the hype from what's actually working today.
From optimization algorithms to computer vision systems and LLM-powered insights, John explains the three distinct categories of warehouse AI and where each one stands in terms of real-world deployment. Learn why the smallest players struggle to adopt AI, how humanoid robots are closer than you think, and why the "lights out warehouse" might follow a logical path we can already see unfolding.
🔑 Topics covered:
- The three categories of warehouse AI: Optimization, Vision & Perception, and LLMs
- Why optimization AI is proven but underutilized by smaller players
- How computer vision is preventing costly downstream errors today
- The realistic timeline for humanoid robots at scale (hint: it's sooner than you think)
- Why LLMs might be the fastest-deploying AI tool in the warehouse
- The crawl-walk-run approach to AI agents running warehouse operations
