121 - Guest: Paul Newman, Vehicle Autonomy CTO, part 2

This and all episodes at: https://aiandyou.net/ .

 

Do you have questions about autonomous vehicles (AVs) and the contradictory headlines about them? Me too. So I invited Paul Newman, founder and CTO of Oxbotica, a UK creator of software for AVs, to come on the show and clear up the hype and heat around self-driving cars. He is the BP chair of Information Engineering at the University of Oxford and director of the Oxford Robotics Institute, and in 2020 he was awarded the Royal Academy of Engineering Medal for outstanding commercialization of engineering innovation.

Paul is really passionate about vehicle autonomy. In this second part he talks about how AVs should handle situations they're not prepared for, regulatory requirements, and what sort of schedule future deployments might follow.

All this plus our usual look at today's AI headlines.
