Southeast Texas Works! Podcast Update: October and November Highlights
October Podcast: Semiconductor Manufacturing and AI in Southeast Texas
In the October episode of Southeast Texas Works!, we had the pleasure of speaking with Gavin Jones, Regional Director of the Texas Manufacturing
Assistance Center (TMAC). Gavin shed light on the growing opportunities in semiconductor manufacturing within Southeast Texas, a sector experiencing
significant expansion as more manufacturers establish operations in the region.
One of the standout features of TMAC's approach is its innovative use of virtual reality-based training, which aims to equip workers with the skills
needed for this rapidly evolving field. Gavin discussed how this training not only enhances worker readiness but also contributes to the industry's
overall growth in Southeast Texas.
Additionally, our conversation explored the transformative impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on the manufacturing landscape. Gavin
highlighted the dual nature of AI in this context—while it presents various challenges for businesses, it also opens doors to new opportunities
for workforce development and efficiency gains. For more information on TMAC and its initiatives, visit their website.
