Artificial intelligence (AI) is a term that's been in the news a lot lately. Indeed, with the arrival of ChatGPT, Claude and other generative intelligences, the concept has become widely popularized. But what's really behind the term, and what benefits does it bring to professional sectors?

Although many people and companies have heard of AI and even started using it, its meaning often remains unclear. The term "artificial intelligence" was coined by John Mccarthy in 1995, to refer to the development of computer programs capable of taking over tasks usually performed by humans.

Today, AI is at the heart of many debates, whether concerning its efficiency, productivity or ethical implications.

Its role

Artificial intelligence has found its way into many professional sectors, including logistics. Thanks to its analysis and automation capabilities, AI is significantly transforming logistics operations.

  • Consumer behavior analysis: AI can analyze consumer behavior based on internal company data and external data from surveys and other sources. This analysis provides a precise view of the target, facilitating decision-making. This may involve analyzing customer trends and habits.
  • Order-picking automation: Automating order-picking processes saves time. AI systems can manage inventory, select the items needed, and prepare orders quickly and efficiently. This reduces not only human error but also processing times, improving overall supply chain efficiency.
  • Last-mile optimization: The last mile, often the most expensive in the supply chain, can be optimized with AI. AI algorithms can predict optimized routes, reducing costs and delivery times.

Its impact in the logistics sector

The integration of AI in the logistics sector brings many important benefits:

  • Supply chain optimization
  • Time and productivity savings
  • Improved inventory management
  • Improved customer experience

And the future of AI?

Artificial intelligence is a hot topic right now, and there's no end in sight. At the heart of innovation, AI continues to evolve and develop in various forms to help businesses save time and increase productivity. New AI solutions continue to emerge, becoming essential and indispensable tools for businesses.
In conclusion, AI is much more than just a technological trend; it's a genuine revolution that's transforming professional sectors, including logistics. As AI technologies continue to advance, their impact on business will only grow, opening up new possibilities for optimization and innovation.
