AI's Role in Transforming the Automotive Industry

As the automotive sector leans into its electrification ambitions, artificial intelligence (AI) emerges as a lever for innovation, prompting industry leaders to reassess their strategies to remain competitive.

Beyond driverless cars, AI’s promise extends to the entire value chain: better products, more innovative offerings, superior customer experiences, more stable supply chains, new revenue streams, and more. Yet many companies struggle to move beyond initial trials because of the challenges of implementation. In particular, outdated IT systems, isolated data sets, and a need to digitally upskill the workforce are significant obstacles to progress. 

This Financial Times webinar, sponsored by PwC, explored AI’s potential within the automotive industry. Industry leaders and technologists discussed the opportunities and challenges associated with AI implementation - from autonomous driving and intelligent manufacturing, to predictive supply chains and personalised mobility services.
