Absolutely agree on the AI vs. legacy systems part! Something most people tend to underestimate when talking AI and logistics / Supply Chain Management.
back the day, I helped to roll out a similar, rather primitive system, at Amazon across their german fulfillment centers. Just the added visibility of that was mind blowing. Also increased pressure on operations, I don't consider this a bad thing.
If you want to chat, more then welcome! also I'd love to hear about how you approach that problem. Because it is huge one, also one most companies totally ignore.
