How will Artificial Intelligence (AI) and machine learning shape the future of the automobile industry and help the company to meet customer wishes? This was the subject of a discussion with Dieter Zetsche, Chairman of the Board of Management of Daimler AG and Head of Mercedes-Benz Cars at the RISE conference, Asia's most important tech-conference, on 10 July 2018 in Hong Kong.

Artificial intelligence is key future topic for Daimler in all areas of the company. Indeed the inventor of the Automobile already places its confidence in artificial intelligence, for example in the new A-Class: Its multimedia system Mercedes-Benz User Experience (MBUX) has a unique learning capability and intuitive operation.

In a live session entitled "From AI to Green Tea. East-West lessons for the inventor of the car", Dieter Zetsche also discussed autonomous driving as part of the mobility of the future in the presence of around 700 international journalists, influencer and conference participants.
