Where Rubber Meets The Road: Simulation, AI Modeling, and The Future of the Automotive Industry

This week’s Fish Fry podcast is all about AI modeling for automotive applications.  Seth DeLand (MathWorks) and I discuss the common challenges that automotive engineers face when implementing simulation into AI modeling, which automotive applications would benefit most from simulation, and why data preparation is a crucial step in the AI workflow during model-based design for automotive … Read More → "Where Rubber Meets The Road: Simulation, AI Modeling, and The Future of the Automotive Industry"

Are These the Top-Performing Edge AI Processors?

I fear I am becoming befuddled, bewildered, and bemused. It seems like every day I get to chat with a new company (well, a company new to me) that’s involved with artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) in some capacity or other. Some of these companies focus on the cloud, while others target the edge. Some devote themselves to the software side of things, … Read More → "Are These the Top-Performing Edge AI Processors?"

A Tempting Taste of the AI-Powered World to Come

Recently, I talked to two young artificial intelligence (AI) start-up companies. Although these companies are tackling completely different problems, they both present a tempting taste of the AI-powered world that is racing towards us like a runaway juggernaut.

As an aside, it just struck me how much AI is already permeating our lives in general and my life in particular. … Read More → "A Tempting Taste of the AI-Powered World to Come"

The End of the Beginning of the End of Civilization as We Know It (Part 2)?

I think my dear old dad sometimes wished he’d been born in the American Wild West circa the 1850s. When I was a kid in England in the 1960s, we both used to love watching the American “Cowboys and Indians” programs on TV. Even now, almost 60 years later, the names of these westerns still trip off my tongue: Gunsmoke, Rawhide, Wagon … Read More → "The End of the Beginning of the End of Civilization as We Know It (Part 2)?"
