My guest for this episode is Matt Moore, SVP of the Highway Loss Data Institute. At HLDI Matt manages the research function for HLDI’s massive insurance and automobile dataset. In this episode we leap to the cutting edge of AI in automobiles and learn about how well some key safety features perform, such as:
- Front Automatic Emergency Brakes
- Curve-adaptive headlights (Big surprise!)
- Lane departure warning systems
- Blind spot warning systems
- Parking sensors
- Rear cameras
- Rear automatic emergency brake
In addition to rattling through those features and how effective they are we touch on all sorts of related topics: what the different levels of AI are, how safe the roads can get, the mix of hardware and software in modern vehicle safety systems and much, much more!
