Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) has launched the TCS Digital Twindex report for the manufacturing industry at Hannover Messe 2025 in Germany - one of the world's leading industrial technology trade fairs. The report reveals how AI-powered digital twins are transforming manufacturing, driving efficiency, adaptability, and resilience. Drawing on insights from industry pioneers and technology leaders such as Siemens, Schneider Electric, NVIDIA, and JLR, alongside TCS executives and futurists, the report presents an in-depth view of digital twin technology adoption and the rise of AI-powered anticipatory ecosystems. Through qualitative research, it captures curated, future-focused conversations and insights from interviews with industry leaders. TCS's multi-decade presence in the manufacturing industry, deep domain expertise, advanced digital twin solutions, and cutting-edge Generative AI capabilities further lend depth to the report and credibility to shape the dialogue on adaptive, AI-first enterprises. Anupam Singhal, President - Manufacturing, TCS, said, "We stand at the threshold of a new manufacturing era, driven by digital twins, Generative AI, quantum-powered advancements, and a deep commitment to everything from safety to sustainability. The 'TCS Digital Twindex Report for Future-Ready Manufacturing' encapsulates our vision for building intelligent, future-ready, and adaptive enterprises - redefining industry competitiveness and enriching the lives of citizens and communities around the globe." Amid the rising need for automation and sustainability, the report offers a strategic blueprint for manufacturers to thrive in an AI and digital twin-driven era. It highlights how AI-powered digital twins, collaborative robots (Cobots), agentic AI, physical AI, and edge computing are converging to create smarter, more sustainable, and human-centric manufacturing ecosystems - enabling the shift toward anticipatory, AI-first enterprises. Overall, the TCS Digital Twindex report identifies five key trends shaping the future of manufacturing: Industry 4.5 and Beyond: The next phase of manufacturing evolution, where AI, automation, and digital twins converge to enable anticipatory, adaptive enterprises. Digital Twins as Real-Time Data Fabric: Acting as the connective tissue for enterprise intelligence - synchronizing data in real time to drive predictive insights and operational resilience. AI as Orchestrator of Intelligence: AI systems are evolving beyond narrow use cases to orchestrate decisions, simulations, and optimizations across the manufacturing value chain. Modular and Intelligent Manufacturing: The shift toward decentralized, plug-and-play production models powered by AI and digital twins, enabling hyper-localized, responsive, and intelligent manufacturing at scale. The Human-AI Symphony in Manufacturing: AI will play a growing role in enhancing human capabilities, supporting better decision-making, improving safety, and enabling seamless collaboration between people and intelligent systems on the factory floor. Rev Lebaredian, VP of Omniverse and Simulation Technology at NVIDIA, "Physical and Industrial AI are born in simulation, where they can be tested and validated before being deployed in the real world. By bridging the gap between the digital and physical, the world's heavy industries are paving the way for software-defined manufacturing and intelligent, autonomous systems." As manufacturers embrace AI and automation, experts underscore that digitization is the essential first step. Without digitized processes, true automation and intelligence deployment remain out of reach. Helenio Gilabert, Global Head of Offer Creation, Industrial Automation Services, Schneider Electric, said, "If it's not digitized, you cannot automate it. If you cannot automate it, you cannot deploy intelligence on top of it. To fully harness AI and digital twins, start with a clear digitization strategy - only then can you move toward AI-driven o...

The Automotive Troublemaker w/ Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier
Shoot us a Text.Happy Thursday, Troublemakers! Today we're talking about Amazon dipping its toe in the used car market, GM is going all-in on AI with Nvidia, and new data reveals surprising trends about who's actually shopping on Amazon. Amazon has set its sights on used cars. The company, which has already been refining its new car-shopping platform in select U.S. markets, is gearing up to introduce used inventory to the mix.Amazon Autos expanded from 54 markets to 68 since its national ad campaign with Hyundai in January.Amazon's Director of Autos, Fan Jin, confirmed that adding used car inventory is the platform's next big milestone, enabling dealers to sell both new and used inventory in a fully e-commerce environment.Amazon is also exploring ways to offer F&I products in a low-pressure, consumer-friendly format, striking a balance between profitability for dealers and ease of purchase for customers.“More and more customers are comfortable with a fully online car transaction,” Jin said, while noting that many still want an in-person touchpoint before finalizing purchases.At Nvidia's annual GTC conference, GM announced a major partnership with the chipmaker to integrate AI into its vehicles, factories, and robotics.GM will use Nvidia's Omniverse platform to simulate virtual assembly lines, reducing downtime and improving efficiency.Nvidia's AI training software will help GM's factory robots improve at tasks like precision welding and material handling.Next-gen GM cars will feature Nvidia's Drive AGX system-on-a-chip, capable of 1,000 trillion operations per second, to enhance autonomous driving.While GM's Super Cruise is highly regarded, the automaker is looking to Nvidia's tech to advance its self-driving capabilities.Nvidia's automotive division is still small, generating $5 billion in revenue this year, but VP Ali Kani sees a “trillion dollar opportunity.”A new report from Numerator reveals key insights into Amazon's shopper demographics and loyalty, highlighting both strengths and potential areas for growth.Amazon boasts a staggering 99% repeat purchase rate, far exceeding the e-commerce industry average of 28-30%.75% of Amazon shoppers are women, and they are more likely than the average consumer to use the platform.Amazon sees higher engagement from rural and middle-income shoppers, but urban and lower-income demographics are less active, while Black, Hispanic, and Asian consumers all index below the national average.Baby boomers make up 33% of Amazon shoppers, though they are slightly less likely to shop there than other generations.Hosts: Paul J Daly and Kyle MountsierGet the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/ Read our most recent email at: https://www.asotu.com/media/push-back-email

We wrap up by discussing Lois on screen, why she doesn't have a more regular solo title and what to expect from Rachel Brosnahan's upcoming portrayal. Ep. 152 What if Lois Lane thought Superman abandoned her & hijinks ensued?from Superman's Girl Friend Lois Lane #30 (DC Comics)Find us at https://linktr.ee/dearwatchersIt's more silver age silliness!

We then cover a zany issue of Superman's Girl Friend Lois Lane where Lois faces off against gangsters, an opium smuggler and an octopus without the help of Superman (or so she thinks). Plus, lookout for a truly bizarre Krypton cameo! Later in that issue, Lois discovers Superman has a secret mermaid wife and child on another planet but everything might not be what it appears to be in this story from the pencil of iconic Lois Lane artist Kurt Schaffenberger. We wrap up by sharing our love for Margot Kidder, Elizabeth Tulloch, Teri Hatcher and speculate on how Lois will be portrayed in James Gunn's upcoming film.

Ep. 151 What if Jimmy Olsen became a werewolf, a woman and was friends with a leprechaun?from Superman's Pal Jimmy Olsen #44 (DC Comics)Find us at https://linktr.ee/dearwatchersGrab your bow ties and sweater vests, it's a deep dive into Jimmy Olsen! We kick off with a look at the origins of the character, from office boy to cub reporter to (eventually) photographer including early appearances in Siegel & Shuster penned issues. Then we jump into the wacky world of Superman's Pal Jimmy Olsen in a three-part issue that sees Jimmy transform into a wolf-man, go under cover as a chorus girl and battle an inter-dimensional trickster, all set to the terrific art of Curt Swan. We wrap up by discussing Jimmy onscreen from Lois & Clark to My Adventures with Superman and speculate on Skyler Gisondo's take on the character in James Gunn's upcoming film.

Santa Claus is coming to town...or a comic book near you! We are talking a history of Santa Claus in comics plus Marvel & DC holiday specials. We start way back in 1947 with Action Comics that sees a real Scrooge try to ruin Christmas by causing Santa to gain a massive amount of weight from tainted chocolate. It's up to Superman to get St. Nick back to fighting weight and save the holiday. Then, we jump to What The in 1991 where Santa is again sidelined and Doctor Doom has to take over, much to the chagrin of the Avengers and Fantastic Four. We wrap up by talking about who else we'd like to see Santa meet.

Then we see Superman rescue Santa from a few extra pounds in a 1947 Action Comics from Siegel, Shuster and John Sikela. Next, we jump to 1991 as Doctor Doom covers for Santa in a rhyming issue from powerhouses Scott Lobdell & John Byrne. We wrap up by pondering who else Santa should tangle with in pop culture.

Computers have been outperforming humans for years on tasks like solving complex equations or analyzing data, but when it comes to the physical world, robots struggle to keep up. It can take years to train robots to function in the messy chaos of the “real world” — but thanks to some unlikely help from the film and video gaming industry, robots today are using AI to fast-track their learning and master new skills using simulated environments. Rev Lebaredian is the vice president of Omniverse and simulation technology at NVIDIA, a company known for its work on advancements in video game graphics cards. Rev and Bilawal discuss how simulated “mirror worlds” can help robots learn faster, the trillion-dollar market for physical AI, and the future of AI robot assistance in our everyday lives.

- Algorithms that will drive physical robots can now be tested at hyper-accelerated speeds inside a full world physical simulator -- a "digital Earth" -- which mimics the laws of physics. This allows autonomous control algorithms to be evolved, iterated and tested at billions of times the speed of time flow in the 3D world, allowing robotic systems to "learn" complex movement and control algorithms in mere minutes. - Because of this system, the upcoming wave of humanoid robots will be expertly able to replace soldiers, surgeons, warehouse workers, truck drivers, agricultural workers, security personnel and almost everything else imaginable. Humans are about to become largely obsolete. - This is why globalists need World War III to take place as a global depopulation even, to exterminate billions of human beings who are about to become obsolete.
