Artificial Intelligence: Why Toyota and other car makers want this tech in by 2030

Artificial Intelligence seems to have replaced space as the final frontier for man in this century. Toyota unveiled'Yui', the AI agent for a car, at the Consumer Electronics Show held in the US this week. Yui will not just understand driving habits and the roads that the car has travelled; it also plays the role of a Jarvis-like assistant (think the Iron Man movies), offering you information and analyses. The Toyota Research Institute, which has built this technology, thinks these platforms can go live in car models by the end of the decade. However, such modules will not come to Indian markets for another decade, as we lack the telecom infrastructure to support these AI agents with information.
