This seems like a laundry list of topics related to automation of any industry, not focused on drilling and not in depth. But it provides food for thought. https://research.aimultiple.com/automation-in-the-oil-and-gas-industry/#what-are-the-benefits-of-automation-in-oil-and-gas-industry

PetroWiki states: "Drilling automation differs from rig automation. Instead of mechanized or automated machinery that deals with surface processes, drilling automation is centered on the entire system of processes from well planning and design through to downhole activities necessary in the actual drilling of an oil or gas well. Today, this involves the linking of enterprise, surface and downhole data systems with near real-time predictive models to improve the safety and efficiency of the drilling process." An article in "World Oil" suggests that we have kept the industry's original sin: siloing. https://www.worldoil.com/magazine/2023/february-2023/features/drilling-automation-a-system-view/ What do you think?
