Abhijeet Manohar, CTO and Co-founder of Pando, joins Adrian Gonzalez of Talking Logistics and Mike Mulqueen, Executive Principal at JBF Consulting, to unpack the findings from the 2025 State of AI in Logistics report. The discussion dives deep into why AI in logistics has shifted from theory to action, with fast movers pulling ahead by embracing AI. Abhijeet and Mike break down the five stages of AI evolution—automation, predictive, prescriptive, generative, and agentic—and explain how each is playing out in real-world logistics operations today. They explore how AI is helping companies automate decision-making, reduce errors, improve agility, and free up human talent to focus on high-value work.

The conversation also addresses barriers like data quality, organizational inertia, and ROI skepticism, while challenging the notion that logistics teams must wait for perfect conditions to begin. Instead, AI is now helping improve data, reduce manual exceptions, and standardize processes in areas like freight audit, procurement, and planning. With 75% of companies planning to significantly increase their AI investments, and early adopters already compounding their gains, the message is clear: the future belongs to the fast movers. If you’re a supply chain leader looking to separate signal from noise, this is the episode you don’t want to miss.
