AI solves problems in biotech and space exploration Artificial intelligence (AI) has become part of our everyday lives, assisting us

with tasks such as car navigation, translation, and the operation of household appliances. But behind the scenes, AI has been managing a huge deal of repetive tasks such as in planning and scheduling in corporations and healthcare institutions. The potential of AI tools to help humans with such tasks is clear to many companies within biotechnology. Applications can be far reaching, even extending to outer space through space exploration. One such AI-based tool is ROMIE, developed by computer engineer Dr. Michael Saint-Guillain and his team. It can help managers in operations make better decisions and also provides investment simulations. The team also designed their off-shoot tool ROMBIO to help biotech companies such as Zentech in their manufacturing processes and even saving working time. With ROMIE, the research team has recently contributed to NASA’s space programs by helping NASA to make better decisions. What can the use of ROMIE mean for operations management, and ROMBIO for space exploration? We find out as we speak to Michael Saint-Guillain today.
