AI: Self-Driving Vehicles … Why HBCUs Need To Get Engaged Now

The world of Autonomous Vehicles is here to stay. HBCUs should become the “Go-To” schools to create talent for Autonomous Vehicle Engineers.

As expected, innovation of vehicles has improved drastically, and of course, AI is 1 of the many places where innovation is ever-present. Quality of life, career opportunities, and accessibility increase with the full self-driving features. Will HBCUs be able to be involved in the transformation of full self-driving vehicles? Engagement has many forms, such as utilization as well as career opportunities in all areas, such as technology and policy. Safety is both the pro and con. Some believe that the vehicle will prove to be a safer driver than humans since its only job is to monitor better than humans. Likewise, full-self driving can give a better quality of life with the usage of unmanned vehicles … potentially offering a different option for delivering students to class. On the other hand, safety is questioned when you put your life in the hands of a computer. Do we really trust it or not? Are our laws planning to be changed regarding this topic. This workshop will discuss full self-driving’s pros and cons and how it can benefit HBCUs.
