## Resource

“Autonomous vehicles is much like the switch from horses to vehicles” - is it really?  What is a neural network and what exactly happens in its layers? How can AI and computer vision enable a car to predict what is going to happen on the streets? And will all cars drive autonomously by 2040? Those and more questions we are going to discuss in our 8th episode with Saquib Sarfraz, Senior Scientist Computer Vision at Mercedes Benz-Daimler and Senior Research Scientist at Karlsruhe Institute of Technology.
