    2: Meet SENSEI: Your Supply Chain AI Co-Pilot, with SCMDOJO

    Dr. Muddassir Ahmed of SCMDOJO SENSEI talks about what they do; building AI that thinks like a practitioner, not a search engine; & boosting outcomes in 5 ways. IN THIS EPISODE WE DISCUSS: [03.41] Dr. Muddassir's career journey and how it led him to found SCMDOJO. "Most people that come into supply chain are not supply chain educated.. So if you throw them a new project or problem, they struggle to get to the root cause of it because they lack technical competencies." [09.38] An overview of SCMDOJO, what they do, and how they help their customers. "We're the world's largest online academy, with three tracks: supply chain, procurement and logistics… All the core competencies are covered, as well as soft skills and technology." [13.37] A closer look at SENSEI, how it's trained, and what it does. "It's your personal AI consultant." [18.49] The three core customer profiles for SCMDOJO and SENSEI. [21.06] Why generic AI is not built for supply chain. "AI is a good tool to get started… But domain knowledge is extremely important… Ask ChatGPT a question, and use the same prompt in SENSEI. The granular detail, technical sophistication and accuracy of the answer – you will see a marked difference." [24.35] From cost to operational speed, the key challenges SENSEI is helping to solve. "Decision latency is a big problem… people spend a lot of time discussing the problem and less time on execution." [26.26] What supply chain professionals are looking for, and why SCMDOJO SENSEI is the right solution. [28.22] An overview of Mode 1: ASK, and how it differs from generic AI or an internet search. "You have enterprise models for millions of dollars, or ChatGPT which is hallucinogenic and generic – and there's nothing in between." [31.05] An overview of Mode 2: DIAGNOSTICS, and what organizations can do with it. [32.54] An overview of Mode 3: AGENTIC WORKFLOWS, and how teams use them. "This is the future of SENSEI."

[37.22] An overview of Mode 5: ANALYSE, and how practitioners can use it to better examine a problem. [39.16] The results SENSEI is driving for businesses and teams. "If you deploy any tool, you have to think about the business case and it should do one of two things: improve customer experience or drive internal efficiencies." [41.45] The importance of community, and how it helps shape SENSEI.
