"Industry 5.0 is an evolution of Industry 4.0 that emphasizes a human-centric, sustainable, and resilient approach to manufacturing.
It focuses on combining advanced technology like AI and robotics with human creativity to personalize production, empower workers, and reduce the environmental impact of industry.
This contrasts with Industry 4.0's main focus on automation and data exchange."
