AI Will Never Replace the Gray-Haired Mentor on Your Shop Floor

AI can analyze data, optimize workflows, and predict outcomes — but it can’t replace the wisdom earned through decades of hands-on experience. In this episode, we explore why the “gray-haired mentor” on your shop floor remains one of your most valuable assets in an AI-driven world. Joined by Bill May, we dig into the difference between knowledge and judgment, how experience fills the gaps AI can’t see, and why the future of manufacturing, operations, and leadership depends on blending human insight with intelligent technology. Bill shares real-world perspectives on mentoring, decision-making, and protecting institutional knowledge while still embracing innovation. This conversation isn’t about choosing between AI or people — it’s about building a smarter, stronger workforce by honoring both. If you’re navigating digital transformation while trying to preserve the human wisdom that actually makes businesses work, this episode will reshape how you think about leadership, mentoring, and the real role of AI in your business.
