#1about 4 minutes

The automotive industry's massive economic and social impact

The automotive industry is a major global economic driver with significant market capitalization and employment, but it faces stagnating car sales despite growing mobility demands.

#2about 4 minutes

How machine learning creates value from automotive data

Machine learning finds patterns in vast amounts of car data to create a virtuous cycle of better products and more users, similar to how the internet industry evolved.

#3about 4 minutes

Applying machine learning to automated driving and personalization

Machine learning improves automated driving by reducing costs and time while increasing quality, and it also enhances the in-car experience through personalization.

#4about 3 minutes

Challenge one: Managing massive data volumes and high sensor costs

A key challenge is managing the terabytes of data generated by modern cars daily and integrating expensive sensors without destroying thin profit margins.

#5about 4 minutes

Challenge two: Adapting legacy architectures and processes

The automotive industry must shift from complex legacy architectures and waterfall development to agile, data-driven processes that support the entire ML lifecycle.

#6about 5 minutes

Challenge three: Ensuring machine learning models are robust

ML models can learn incorrect correlations from data, as shown by husky/wolf and criminal-detection examples, highlighting the need for better interpretability for safe deployment.
