Supply chain optimization based on artificial intelligence in the chemical industry

the purpose of the article is to study the integration of artificial intelligence in supply chains and its impact on supply chains, using the example of the chemical industry. The application of artificial intelligence tools has become the main basis for the development of modern approaches to resource management, improvement of logistics routes, and warehouse operations. The article substantiates the important issues in the distribution sector concerning the improvement and automation of routine operations in supply chains, as it is possible to significantly reduce costs and time due to modern technologies. Methods: in the process of research the method of theoretical review was used, which allows to study the specifics of the formation of supply chains at the present stage. The method of analysis and statistics allowed us to study the dynamics of the chemical industry in Russia for the last 2022-2024 years. Using the method of generalization, conclusions are drawn concerning the effectiveness of the proposed optimization mechanism. The results contain a description of the supply chain optimization model to be used on the basis of artificial intelligence tools in the chemical industry. An integrated approach to supply chain management helps to identify weaknesses and generalize the available optimization techniques. The economic efficiency from the implementation of the proposed model is also calculated. Conclusions: a general conclusion is presented on the importance of artificial intelligence in the logistics sector as the main technology enabling optimal development of the chemical industry within the framework of improving the competitiveness of the country. The identified technological capabilities of artificial intelligence in terms of forecasting, big data analysis and inventory management allow planning and monitoring the process of the entire supply chain.
