Chatbots are our AI buddies for everyday questions. PlantGPT is our expert counterpart. The digital assistant helps employees in BASF production facilities work faster and more efficiently. It not only eases the daily operations in the control room but also assists the team in onboarding new colleagues quickly. AI does not take the wheel – it remains the co-pilot that supports us efficiently. PlantGPT was developed by the team at the Acetylene Plant in Geismar, USA, in close collaboration with BASF’s digitalization experts from Ludwigshafen, Germany, and Madrid, Spain. This film, which was first shown at the BASF Annual General Meeting in 2025, provides insight into how colleagues work with it. #BASF #PlantGPT #ArtificialIntelligence #WinningWays
