Data Intensity

Support activities for rail transportation show a moderate level of complexity and regulatory oversight, balanced capex requirements, and data intensity suitable for some level of AI integration. However, the workforce's specialized nature and the industry's moderate adaptability present challenges to widespread AI adoption. Overall, while there is potential for AI to provide efficiencies, the risk of full displacement is mitigated by the current need for human expertise and regulatory safeguards.
