Ready To Launch New Technology, Tesla To Host Artificial Intelligence Day In August
JAKARTA - Tesla Inc. boss, Elon Musk said on Tuesday, May 17 that the electric car maker will host a second artificial intelligence day on August 19. Tesla is likely to expand on plans to perfect its self-driving technology.
"The goal of AI Day is to convince great AI/software/chip talent to join Tesla," the billionaire said in a tweet.
Reported by Reuters, the use of AI in self-driving cars has sparked debate around safety issues. But Musk has often argued that such vehicles are much safer than those driven by humans.
Tesla is developing software for its cars to drive without human intervention or supervision. However, today's full self-driving (FSD) systems require human monitoring and are not meant to work without the driver behind the wheel.
