We’re entering a transformative era where AI is automating routine tasks at an unprecedented scale. As technology
continues to reshape industries and redefine professional roles, one pressing question emerges: How do we ensure that
human skills remain essential? This keynote explores what sets us apart from machines: our creativity, emotional
intelligence, and ability to build deep, meaningful relationships. Blending the latest research with real-world
applications, this session will provide practical, forward-thinking strategies to help professionals not just adapt but lead
in an AI-driven landscape. Attendees will leave with actionable insights to stay relevant, drive innovation, and futureproof their careers.
We are living through a revolution in mobility. Advances in computing and communications are giving us the tools to rethink how ground transportation works—and to solve problems that have challenged us for decades. But real-world driving is more than algorithms and hardware. People—with all our unique characteristics—bring uncertainties that affect both safety and energy efficiency on the road. This talk will present work on intelligent vehicles that don’t just drive themselves, but drive with us: safer, more efficient, and most importantly, attuned to the individual humans they serve. The key is human-centric, personalized automation: systems that learn, adapt, and work in harmony with their users and surroundings. By combining the strengths of data-driven learning, adaptive control, and a deep understanding of both human behavior and vehicle dynamics, we can create ground mobility systems that are not only intelligent, but trusted. The goal is clear: ground transportation that is efficient, safe, and fosters genuine cooperation between people and machines.
