Editor’s Note
This article introduces an AI “Wheel of Possibilities,” an infographic developed by Francéclat with Alcimed. It maps AI tools and training resources aimed at optimizing and advancing craftsmanship in luxury sectors like watchmaking and jewelry.

How can Artificial Intelligence contribute to both the intrinsic optimization and the development of professions in watchmaking, jewelry, goldsmithing, and tableware? Developed with the help of the consulting firm Alcimed, Francéclat’s infographic aims to present a selection of tools that rely – wholly or in part – on artificial intelligence. While not exhaustive, this mapping also includes a panel of organizations offering dedicated training on the subject, such as BPI France, the Chamber of Trades and Crafts, and several Chambers of Commerce and Industry.
Here, Francéclat has opted for a classification around concrete themes: creation aids, customer analysis, optimization of manufacturing or distribution steps… The solutions were selected based on criteria such as their relevance to the concerned business sectors, their operational impact, and their technological maturity. Their technical and financial accessibility – particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises – was also taken into account, as was their compliance with data protection regulations.
