Ford has announced it is hiring a pair of respected engineers and industry veterans as part of its efforts to lead the development of artificial intelligence technology. The company hired two experienced leaders, including one with a reputation for being one of the "gray hairs" in the tech industry who brings decades of experience to the table.
This latest move is seen as a significant step forward for Ford's AI initiative, which was initially met with skepticism by some in the automotive world. By hiring these experts, the company appears to be taking its commitment to AI seriously and investing in people rather than just processes.
The new hires are expected to play key roles in driving the development of Ford's artificial intelligence technology, including designing and implementing algorithms that will enable the creation of highly sophisticated machines. The move is seen as a significant boost for Ford, which has been working to expand its use of AI in areas such as autonomous vehicles and mobility services.
