Artificial intelligence does not replace knowledge!

Keynote by Markus Vüllers

Industrial coating technology is much more than just paint on a surface—it makes products more durable, protects value, and brings color to our world. But behind every perfect coating is a fascinating mix of chemistry, process engineering, mechanical engineering, and electrical engineering. At the same time, the industry is facing major changes: increased efficiency, sustainability, digitalization, and the loss of experiential knowledge due to generational change. How can knowledge be secured? What role does artificial intelligence play – and why do human experience and curiosity remain irreplaceable? This keynote speech shows why coating technology is one of the most exciting future disciplines in industry.
