Mine planning systems and fleet management solutions capture what happened, but rarely why it happened. Even when operational decisions are captured digitally and connected to planning and execution data, AI can only explain outcomes without understanding intent. Artificial Intelligence in this context will be limited in its ability to support better planning, performance and safety.
