Clay Product and Refractory Manufacturing is an industry with moderate complexity and significant capital requirements that impede rapid AI displacement. Regulatory and compliance barriers also play a role, though advancements in data and technological integration can offer opportunities for incremental enhancements. The specialized skill set of the workforce and existing traditional practices limit flexibility for full automation. However, the potential for AI-driven process optimizations cannot be overlooked.
