Ted Lister has been asking the same question for 30 years: how do you make the best decision possible with incomplete information, limited time, and thousands of dollars a minute on the line?
His answer used to be experience, discipline, and a well-built schedule. Now it includes something else.
As CEO and Founder of NextGen-Navigator AI Inc. and Founder and Chairman of iAPSCCยฎ, Ted has spent the last several years building NAVi, an AI agent designed to work alongside planners and schedulers in heavy industry as a navigator, not an autopilot. The distinction matters more than most people realize. An AI that steers your project without you understanding why is not an asset. It's a liability waiting to happen.
His Track 2 session, "๐๐ ๐๐ด๐ฒ๐ป๐๐: ๐ฃ๐ถ๐น๐ผ๐๐, ๐ก๐ฎ๐๐ถ๐ด๐ฎ๐๐ผ๐ฟ๐, ๐ผ๐ฟ ๐ฃ๐ฎ๐๐๐ฒ๐ป๐ด๐ฒ๐ฟ๐?" challenges every practitioner in the room to get clear on one question before they adopt any AI tool: what role are you actually assigning it? The wrong answer creates overconfidence, hidden risks, poor decisions, and misplaced accountability. The right answer makes you a better pilot.
Ted presents in Track 2 at the iAPSCCยฎ AI & Industry Summit on June 17. He also opens the event. He built this summit because the profession deserves an honest conversation about where this is all going.
Three hours. Live and virtual. Built for the people doing the work.
