Metal Matters: Talking AI in Mining With McKinsey (Part 2)
In the final part of this special series on how AI is changing mining, Helen continues the discussion with McKinsey’s mining and AI experts Sean Buckley and Cris Cunha. They discuss how AI is shifting operating decisions from reactive to proactive, compressing response times, and helping with talent bottlenecks. They cover where AI is actually being used and having impact across exploration, processing, and increasingly in sulphide leaching, which could be game changing for the industry. They also touch on how “Physical AI” could take autonomous mining equipment to the next level, how OEMs are embracing AI differently, how miners are dealing with AI-risks and, finally, what the data shows so far about the impact on employment and other stakeholders.
