DURHAM,
N.C., March 18, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- The
International Society of Automation (ISA) — the leading
professional society for automation — has earned a 2025 Gold TRENDY
Award for MimoSM, an AI-powered large language model
(LLM) trained on ISA content. The TRENDY Awards, presented by
Association TRENDS, recognize the best marketing and communication
pieces in the association and nonprofit community.
Mimo received a 2025 Gold TRENDY Award for Best Product Launch,
the highest award given in the category. Launched at the end of Q2
2024, Mimo is an LLM educated on ISA standards, training, technical
reports, white papers, articles and presentations. It can answer
user questions in multiple languages about industrial automation
and operational technology (OT) cybersecurity. In the first month
of its existence, Mimo answered about 4,000 prompts — roughly eight
times the prompts a typical association knowledge assistant can
expect to see upon release.
"It is an honor and a thrill for the launch of ISA's large
language model, Mimo, to be recognized with a highly respected Gold
TRENDY Award," said Jason Wampler,
managing director of IT for ISA. "Mimo provides a novel way for the
worldwide community of automation professionals to engage with
ISA's vast wealth of technical information and deepen their
understanding. Thank you to the volunteers and staff who dedicated
their efforts to make Mimo its very best. Long after Mimo's
phenomenal launch, we're still celebrating its amazing value to the
automation community."
ISA collaborated with Betty Bot to develop Mimo, which
continues to be trained on new ISA content every day. For more

members who are logged in have unlimited access and will receive
the most detailed answers.
