Translational Systems Sciences Industry 4.0 to Industry 5.0: Explorations in the Transition from a Techno-Economic to a Socio-Technical Future Book 41 (Hardcover)

This is an Open Access book. In 2015 Industry 4.0 was announced with the rise of industrialization by the European Parliament supporting policy research and infrastructure funding. In 2020 Industry 5.0 was launched as an evolution of Industry 4.0 towards societal and ecological values in a sustainable human-centric and resilient transition. In 2023 the IN4ACT research project team completed 4 years of research on the impact on these initiatives. Presentations reviewing the progress of management practices and economics led to conversations about what s next. The unanticipated rise in late 2022 of Generative AI technologies (e.g. ChatGPT DALL-E) sparked dialogues with an extended circle of researchers on impacts not considered in 2015 or in 2020. This collection of chapters reflects multiple perspectives on research findings to 2023 prospects for 2024 and considerations on ways the techno-economic industrial revolutions may be reshaped into desirable futures respecting social and ecological concerns.
