This is a difficult task that can slow down the speed to market or lower the accuracy of the model that is created. Synthetic data helps in solving this problem by reducing the amount of real data that needs to be collected. That results in reduced time to market and increased model accuracy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In today\u2019s episode, I\u2019m talking to Zachi Mann. He leads a new initiative that is focused on advanced robotics simulation capabilities at Siemens. He\u2019ll help us understand AI model training for factory robots. He\u2019ll also share with us how Siemens solutions such as CAD and NX help in model development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this episode, you\u2019ll learn about the use of synthetic data in training AI-reliant factory robots. You\u2019ll also learn about the challenges and the benefits that come with combining synthetic data with real data. Additionally, you\u2019ll learn about SynthAI, a new synthetic data generating solution from Siemens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>In this episode, you will learn:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The meaning of synthetic data (03:03)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The challenges that come with the use of synthetic data (04:19)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The benefits of using synthetic data (08:05)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Why the use of synthetic data has been on the rise (11:06)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Other uses of synthetic data besides AI model training (17:25)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<div class=\"bio-block row\">\n    <div class=\"col-3 order-first bio-pic\">\n        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/32\/2022\/05\/zachi-mann.jpg\" alt=\"Zachi Mann\" \/>\n    <\/div>\n    <div class=\"col-9 bio-info\">\n        <div class=\"bio-header\">\n            <h4 class=\"speakerintro\">Zachi Mann<\/h4>\n        <\/div>\n        <div class=\"bio-biography\">\n            <p>R&amp;D Manager for Tecnomatix at Siemens Digital Industries Software<\/p>        <\/div>\n        <div class=\"bio-contact\">\n            <p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/zachi-mann\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Connect with Zachi at LinkedIn<\/a><\/p>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"bio-block row\">\n    <div class=\"col-3 order-first bio-pic\">\n        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/32\/2022\/05\/spencer-acain.jpg\" alt=\"Spencer Acain\" \/>\n    <\/div>\n    <div class=\"col-9 bio-info\">\n        <div class=\"bio-header\">\n            <h4 class=\"speakerintro\">Spencer Acain<\/h4>\n        <\/div>\n        <div class=\"bio-biography\">\n            <p>Technical Writer for Global Marketing at Siemens Digital Industries Software<\/p>        <\/div>\n        <div class=\"bio-contact\">\n            <p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/spencer-acain-a4267b125\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Connect with Spencer at LinkedIn<\/a><\/p>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>Siemens Digital Industries Software is driving transformation to enable a digital enterprise where engineering, manufacturing and electronics design meet tomorrow.
