Together with other experts, key aspects were highlighted, such as technology and safety, jobs of the future, data and ethics. Participants gained valuable insights into global pilot projects and commercial services for automated vehicles.
The focus was on how automation is creating new professions in maintenance, operation and monitoring instead of displacing jobs. At the same time, the importance of data protection and ethical standards was highlighted to ensure the sustainable success of these technologies.
