On March 25, 2025, I was a guest at the Chamber of Crafts Weiden as part of the meetup “Digital Craftsmanship Nordoberpfalz” (DCN).
Tradition Meets Modernity
My talk was about the exciting question of how artificial intelligence and modern software tools can support traditional craftsmanship. As someone who is deeply rooted in both software development (AI/LLM) and manual mechanics (engine revisions, stage technology), this topic was particularly close to my heart.
Key Points:
- Digital Tools: Presentation of AI assistance systems that can help not only on the PC but also with planning and problem analysis in the workshop.
- Knowledge Transfer: How digital documentation and AI-supported search help to preserve valuable technical knowledge and make it accessible.
- Practical Examples: Illustrative linking of my experiences from embedded development with practical repair.
The exchange with the craftsmen and digital enthusiasts on site underscored that “Craftsmanship” – whether in code or metal – shares the same passion for quality and precision.
