CEO of industrial manufacturer Oshkosh Corp. John Pfeifer told CNBC's Jim Cramer artificial intelligence is already making his products more efficient.
In fact, it has the potential to make vehicles like garbage trucks completely autonomous.
Pfeifer said the company has already used AI to eliminate the role of the person who traditionally stands at the back of the truck.
"The continuous evolution of autonomous functionality and AI will allow better productivity that ultimately can go completely unmanned."
"We really like this acquisition, we've been working on this for a little while, probably three or four years we've been interested in it," Pfeifer said.
