LLM(大型语言模型)在工业领域中的十个应用




随着时间的推移,LLM(大型语言模型)的特性和能力逐渐为人们所熟知。它们展现了无与伦比的人类语言理解、出色的文本生成能力以及友好的对话指令跟随倾向。而像GPT-4和Claude等更为强大的LLM则展现出了对现实世界因果关系的深刻理解。据报道,GPT-4甚至采用了八个与GPT-3.5规模相当的LLM,通过混合专家(MoE)的方式进行配置。


尽管LLM在某些方面存在限制,如在过多上下文的情况下可能产生事实幻觉,以及在算术方面存在缺陷,但这些问题已通过精心设计的提示、RAG技术和专门的软件包装得到了解决,使LLM的行为更加接近理想的“代理”模式。OpenAI的首席执行官Sam Altman将这些进步比作“寒武纪爆炸”,意味着人工智能技术的迅猛发展和广泛应用潜力。


然而,这些技术突破也增加了监管机构采取行动的压力。例如,欧盟在2021年提出了AI法案,旨在规范人工智能的使用,确保其在法律、伦理和社会责任方面的合规性(参见Verdantix的报告《欧盟对人工智能监管发出鸣号》)。与此同时,工业领域的运营、维护和工艺安全主管也面临着巨大的挑战。他们需要优化生产过程、提高产量、减少排放,并满足日益严格的安全标准。


在快速的技术演进、日益严格的监管和社会担忧之间,存在着一定的紧张关系。然而,Verdantix在报告中指出了工业领域生成AI的十个高价值应用案例。这些案例展示了生成AI技术在解决工业领域实际问题方面的巨大潜力,为企业提供了优化生产、提高效率、减少成本并满足安全标准的新途径。

从庞大的数据集中提取相关的关键信息,以获得简明扼要的见解

Extracting relevant critical information from vast data sets for concise insights.


随着数字化在工业企业中的推广,由此产生的数据仓库和数据湖将存储从成千上万台物联网(IoT)设备上数十年的高频传感器测量数据,到数百万份检验报告、工单、扫描笔记和生产日志等各种数据。Salesforce Research公司的BLIP-2等功能强大的图像标注工具能够利用基于文本的数据丰富可视数据,而C3 AI和Cognite等公司的表格和文档解析工具则为LLM提供了多模态数据的可视性。通过使用检索系统向 LLM 提供文本块,操作员可以获得相关数据的对话式、基于真实情况的表述(见图5)。Cognite 的工业知识图谱为 LLM 提供了资产、流程、技术和人员之间的语义关系,以减少幻觉。基于 LLM 的信息检索系统可为操作员提供简明、相关的大局观见解,帮助他们发现低效和安全风险。


As digitization is rolled out across industrial enterprises, the resulting data warehouses and data lakes will store

everything from decades of high-frequency sensor measurements across thousands of Internet of Things (IoT)devices, to millions of inspection reports, work orders, scanned notes and production logs. Powerful imagecaptioning tools, such as BLIP-2 by Salesforce Research, enable the enrichment of visual data with text-basedmetadata, while table and document parsing tools by firms such as C3 AI and Cognite offer LLMs visibilityinto multimodal data. By employing retrieval systems to serve text chunks to LLMs, operators are providedwith conversational, grounded-in-truth representations of relevant data (see Figure 5). Cognite’s IndustrialKnowledge Graph provides LLMs with semantic relationships between assets, processes, technologies andpeople, to reduce hallucinations. LLM-based information retrieval systems give operators concise, relevantinsights for a big-picture view – helping them discover inefficiencies and safety risks.

通过自动化消除重复性行政工作

Eliminating repetitive administrative tasks through automation.


数字孪生、人工智能分析和资产管理软件等技术有助于实现工业设施多个流程的自动化,在 2022 年 Verdantix 全球企业卓越运营调查中,301 位受访者中有 87% 提到新技术的可用性是推动工厂运营数字化转型的最重要因素。2023 年 4 月,西门子宣布与微软合作,在微软团队(Microsoft Teams)中推出全新的 Teamcenter 应用程序,帮助车间工人解析和翻译自然语音,生成汇总报告,并将信息传递给相应的设计、工程或制造人员。


Technologies such as digital twins, AI analytics and asset management software help automate multipleprocesses at industrial facilities, with 87% of the 301 respondents in the 2022 Verdantix global corporateoperational excellence survey mentioning the availability of new technologies as the most significant factordriving digital transformation of plant operations (see Verdantix Global Corporate Survey 2022: OperationalExcellence Budgets, Priorities & Tech Preferences). LLMs will enhance these capabilities even further byperforming mundane, repetitive administrative tasks such as drafting emails, scanning reports to triage risksand retrieving information from systems where conventional software integration has not been implemented.In April 2023 Siemens announced a collaboration with Microsoft to launch its new Teamcenter app withinMicrosoft Teams, helping shop floor workers parse and translate natural speech, generate summarizedreports and route information to appropriate design, engineering or manufacturing personnel.

实现更强大的工业数据采集、转换和上下文关联

Enabling more robust industrial data ingest, transformation and contextualization.


如果没有合适的工具,工业数据可能非常庞大、难以捉摸且管理成本高昂。AspenTech、AVEVA、HighByte 和 Hitachi Vantara 等公司提供工业 DataOps 平台,以满足各种数据管理需求,而 Timeseer.ai 等其他公司则提供特定工具,以检测 100 多种数据质量问题并发出警报。LLM (大模型)擅长解析非结构化数据、使用推理添加上下文以及排除软件问题。作为代理部署,生成式人工智能将大大提高数据管理和协调的易用性(见图6)。Cognite 的 Industrial Canvas 平台由基于 LLM (大模型)的代理和生成式人工智能提供支持,在单一视图中实现多模态上下文关联。


Industrial data can be vast, inscrutable and expensive to manage without suitable tools (see VerdantixStrategic Focus: Why Industrial Firms Need DataOps Platforms For Asset Management Digitization).Firms such as AspenTech, AVEVA, HighByte and Hitachi Vantara offer industrial DataOps platforms to meetdiverse data management needs, while others, such as Timeseer.ai, provide specific tools to detect andprovide alerts for more than 100 data quality issues. LLMs excel at parsing unstructured data, using reasoningto add context, and troubleshooting software issues. Deployed as agents, generative AI will greatly increasethe ease of use of data management and orchestration (see Figure 6). Included in Cognite’s Industrial Canvasplatform is multimodal contextualization within a single pane of glass view, powered by LLM-based agentsand generative AI.

作为推理引擎,为操作和维护人员快速提供辅助意见

Offering ops & maintenance workers a quick second opinion by acting as a reasoning engine.


经过 RLHF 调整的 LLM 能够遵从自然语言指令,使它们能够以人类可以理解的方式,通过思维链或思维递归推理来探索数字环境。


通过思维链或思维递归推理,以人类可以理解的方式探索数字环境。它们可以查询工业数据湖、阅读和汇总文档,或通过与企业资产管理(EAM)、环境健康安全(EHS)或资产性能管理(APM)软件的连接查看实时数据。作为代理(根据用户指令执行任务)部署的 LLM 可以承担许多琐碎的知识收集和基本分析工作,简化一线工人的任务,例如获取设备中特定资产(如泵)的列表,记录其服务历史,并预测哪些资产下个月需要维修(见图6)。虽然即使是当今最强大的 LLM(如 GPT-4 和 Claude)有时也会犯错,但如果利用适当的软件支架来引导他们的注意力,他们对世界的一般知识就能为操作员、经理和工程师提供快速、无需判断的理智检查,或对关键决策提供第二意见(见图4)。


The ability of RLHF-tuned LLMs to follow natural language instructions allows them to explore their digital

environment through chain-of-thought or recursion-of-thought reasoning in a way that is understandableto humans. They can query industrial data lakes, read and summarize documents, or review real-time datathrough connections to enterprise asset management (EAM), EHS or asset performance management (APM)software. Deployed as agents – to perform a task based on user instructions – LLMs can undertake much ofthe mundane knowledge-gathering and basic analysis, streamlining frontline worker tasks such as fetchinga list of specific assets (for example, pumps) in a facility, noting their service history, and predicting whichones will need servicing next month (see Figure 6). While even today’s most powerful LLMs, such as GPT-4and Claude, will sometimes make mistakes, their general knowledge of the world, when utilized with theappropriate software scaffolding to direct their attention, offers operators, managers and engineers a quick,judgement-free sanity check or second opinion on critical decisions (see Figure 4).

自动对资产维护任务进行分类和优先排序

Automatically categorizing and prioritizing asset maintenance tasks.


LLM 擅长分析非结构化数据(无论是直接分析、从文件中提取文本分析,还是从人工智能视觉模型生成的标题分析),具有无限的耐心,可以持续监控上传到工业数据池的实时信息。可利用此类功能从数据中提取情感信息,将其与运营优先事项进行比较,并向设备和企业决策者提供相应的摘要。同样,LLM 可以使用风险和关键度量筛选成千上万份检查报告、图像字幕和可用的通话记录,以检测即将发生的事故,并通过代理式流程自动化向现场管理人员及时发出警报。


Expert at analysing unstructured data – either directly, from text scraped from documents, or fromcaptions generated by AI vision models – LLMs have limitless patience to continuously monitor real-timeinformation uploaded to industrial data lakes. Such functionality can be leveraged to extract sentiment fromdata, compare it with operational priorities and serve summaries to facilities and corporate decision-makersaccordingly. Similarly, LLMs can use risk and criticality metrics to screen thousands of inspection reports,image captions and available transcripts from calls to detect imminent incidents and provide timely alertsthrough agent-style process automation to site managers.

通过语音口述进行检查和维护,实现完全免提操作

Facilitating fully hands-free operation with voice dictation for inspections and maintenance.


十多年来,智能手机上已经部署了苹果 Siri、谷歌助手等多种形式的听写系统。然而,这些系统在识别特定领域词汇或持续提取复杂指令方面能力有限。2022 年,OpenAI 发布了开源的 Whisper 模型——一种多功能、通用的语音到文本系统,该系统在 68 万小时的文字记录基础上进行了训练。这种模型可以与 LLM 和视觉系统相结合,为虚拟助手提供信息,并为现场操作人员提供免提的音频和视觉信息。虽然 Whisper 和类似模型目前的计算成本较高,但企业从准确转录中获得的价值正在推动创新,并使经过训练可识别特定行业术语的紧凑型模型得以快速发展。此类系统将为一线工人提供基于软件的推理引擎和虚拟助手,帮助他们完成复杂的任务,尤其是在偏远地区。


For more than a decade, dictation has been deployed on smartphones in the form of Apple’s Siri, Google’sAssistant and numerous others. However, such systems have been limited in their ability to recognizedomain-specific words or consistently extract complex instructions. In 2022 OpenAI released the open-sourceWhisper model – a versatile, general-purpose speech-to-text system trained on 680,000 hours of transcripts.Such models can be combined with LLMs and vision systems to feed a virtual assistant and provide audioand visual information to operators in the field, hands-free. While Whisper and similar models are currentlycomputationally expensive, enterprise-focused value from accurate transcription is driving innovations andenabling the rapid development of compact models trained to recognize industry-specific terminology. Such

systems will offer frontline workers a software-based reasoning engine and virtual assistant to help withcomplex tasks, especially in remote locations.
