I recently had an insightful conversation with a former colleague about the growing role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) enablement and how the data these solutions manage plays a critical role in AI's effectiveness. We started by discussing the sheer amount of data that PLM solutions handle. These solutions manage everything from design data, engineering specs, and manufacturing details to quality control records and service data. And it’s not just straightforward data – we're talking about complex 3D models, CAD files, and BOMs. My former colleague asked a great question: "How does AI fit into all of that data?" I explained that while many think AI only works when you have massive amounts of data, that’s not entirely true. AI can add value even with moderate data volumes by helping improve decision-making, predicting potential outcomes, and automating repetitive processes. Of course, more data allows AI models to make
