Christoph Siemer is Managing Director of deeplify, which builds intelligence for asset integrity in the energy and process industries. deeplify brings together inspection, maintenance, and engineering data so AI can support inspection and integrity decisions at scale, while engineering authority remains with the accountable engineer. Mr. Siemer works with operators and standards bodies on a central question for the sector: how AI can be governed, validated, and made interoperable before it is trusted in safety-critical environments. He serves on the DIN technical committee for AI in non-destructive testing, contributes to several international AI working groups, and helps shape DEXPI, the open standard for digital P&IDs.
