Ford’s AI Program and Computational Thought Nathan Acuna
Ford Motor Company’s Artificial Intelligent Program • Global Study and Process Allocation System (GSPAS) • Ford has been using GSPAS since 2002 • The Process Sheet
How the Program Works • The GSPAS program uses modular arrangement of predetermined time standards (MODAPTS) codes. • Example of MODAPTS: • How the program analyzes the production process.
Benefits of the Program • Reduced the engineer’s workload by 20% • AI program has flagged 1,100 process sheets • The AI program has already saved Ford around $17,000,000 in injury cost alone and improved employee relations.
How the GSPAS Program Relates to Computational Thought • Computer scientists modeled Ford’s engineers thought process. • The GSPAS program supports the theory that thought is computational.
