Welcome to CFF-TV!

I’m your host, Matt Manero and the topic of the day should be, why am I drinking 42 ounces of diet Coke this morning?

But that’s a whole other hot topic. I guess today’s hot topic is how artificial intelligence is impacting the transportation industry. Look, this is a big deal and you know, I’m a pretty simple guy. I have two pages of notes on artificial intelligence and how it’s impacting the transportation industry. But the process of bringing you the hot topic today really freaked me out a little bit. As I gained a much deeper understanding of what the two types of AI artificial intelligence actually are. So let’s get into today’s hot topic. Uh, artificial intelligence is impacting the transportation industry in a big way. We don’t hear about it all that much, but it’s happening behind the scenes a lot, way more than us in transportation have given it credit. So let me give you my definition of what AI is.

What Is A.I. In The Present Time

It’s the use of computer programming and deep learning, which we’re going to get into in a minute technology to create additional efficiencies. It’s the use of computer programming and computers that actually learn to reduce friction in processes. Now we need to understand that not all AIS are created equally. There are two primary as it exists today. The first is simple artificial intelligence programming. A good example would that would be Uber in which an app was built. A program was programmed and it simply is used to locate your position, dispatch a vehicle to your position and take you to a new position. And it’s done through computer programming. Another example of, um, fairly basic AI would be Amazon. Will you purchase something on Amazon and miraculously? It makes recommendations to you of other products that were similar or other things that you might want to bundle to go along with that because other people have bought this similar grouping connected to your purchase.

Deeper Learning A.I.

That’s a version of AI, but what really begins to freak me out is the deeper version of AI, which is referred to as deep learning. Now, let me give you an example of what deep learning means. Deep learning is using quantum computing, programmed with learning technology to replace human thought with
