SEMICON West 2026 Recap: Giving AI the Context to Act

SEMICON West 2026 event recap featuring Aidentyx’s Smart Manufacturing Pavilion booth

Aidentyx joined SEMICON West 2026, October 13–15 at Moscone Center in San Francisco, to connect with the semiconductor community and introduce the PODO® AI Framework.

As a Premier Pavilion Sponsor of the Smart Manufacturing Pavilion, we shared how manufacturing context can help AI support the decisions engineers make across the fab.

Our kiosk stayed busy through the final hours of the show. We enjoyed meeting visitors, hearing about their manufacturing challenges and discussing how PODO could fit into their operations.

Watch our one-minute highlight video for a look back at the booth, the pavilion and the people who made the week.

Give AI the Context to Act

Our booth displays and video explored a semiconductor workflow built around Detect, Diagnose and Act.

Starting with a wafer pattern and equipment signals, the workflow illustrated how process records, chamber history, recipe information and maintenance knowledge can help engineers investigate what changed and assess the next step.

A shared manufacturing ontology connects these relationships, giving AI agents and fab teams a common context for their work. Engineers review proposed actions before authorized work moves forward.

Our message to fabs: Yield problems? Act with context.

Conversations Across the Fab

Visitors brought practical questions about applying manufacturing ontology across fab operations, connecting chamber sensors with monitoring software and evaluating AI in research and production environments.

These discussions gave us opportunities to explore where connected manufacturing knowledge could support existing workflows—and what a focused evaluation might involve.

Beyond the booth, Aidentyx sponsored the Smart Manufacturing Reception & Live Poster Session on October 14, creating another opportunity to exchange ideas with the community.


What’s Next

Thank you to everyone who visited our kiosk, shared their perspectives and connected with our team, and to SEMI for bringing the community together.

We look forward to continuing the conversations started in San Francisco.
