“Automation does not need to be our enemy. I think machines can make life easier for men, if men do not let the machines dominate them.”
— John F. Kennedy
As technology continues to advance, so does the automotive industry, integrating innovations such as enhanced navigation systems, large touchscreen interfaces, and self-driving capabilities— all designed to improve the driving experience. While these advancements are intended to assist human drivers, it is essential to evaluate how effectively they do so.
Our project aims to investigate how artificial intelligence (AI) learns to adapt, make decisions, and perform the task of driving in comparison to human drivers. By analyzing AI-driven systems and their ability to navigate various driving scenarios, we seek to understand the strengths and limitations of AI in real-world applications.
“Sometimes when you innovate, you make mistakes. It is best to admit them quickly and get on with improving your other innovations.”
– Steve Jobs
