ABOUT THE CONTENT

While the self-driving, autonomous car is a game-changing opportunity for the future, presently the automotive, technology, and manufacturing industries are embracing Artificial Intelligence to increase efficiency and add value to processes revolving around traditional, manually-driven vehicles. By 2020, 98% of all new cars will be connected. At the same time more people will opt for Transportation as a Service (TaaS), especially in urban areas, where rides are shorter, the streets are more congested, and people prefer not to waste time waiting in traffic or searching for parking. The transformation of transportation will result in an explosion and demand for data and the associated digital infrastructure to support it.

WE WILL EXPLORE THESE TOPICS:[push h=5]

• Why the industry is moving from a centralized to a distributed AI mode
  [push h=10]
• Using Machine Learning (ML) in product design operations, including prototyping
  [push h=10]
• Processing data at the Edge and transferring large amounts of data quickly for performance, security, and cost reasons
  [push h=10]
• Predictive modelling of sales using internal and external data
  [push h=10]
• Manufacturing quality control using edge technologies to see, hear, and collect data
  [push h=10]
• Best practices for implementing hybrid cloud architectures to support AI
  [push h=10]
• How the open source model is driving innovation in the AI/ML algorithm space[push h=10]
