German industrial giant Siemens AG has partnered with Microsoft Corp. to develop an AI-powered assistant to improve collaboration between humans and machines in manufacturing.

The Siemens Industrial Copilot uses generative AI to allow users to create, optimize and debug automation code as a time-saving tool for companies, Siemens announced in a press release on Tuesday. “This will reduce a task that previously took weeks to minutes,” the company said.
