Autonomous cars

APPLE views autonomous driving systems as a “core technology” for the future, chief executive Tim Cook told Bloomberg television. Cook said Apple wants to move into the automotive sector because “there is a major disruption looming” from new technologies.

The auto sector, Cook said, is being transformed by artificial intelligence and autonomous driving technology as well as by the development of better electric cars and the growth of ridesharing. “We are focusing on autonomous systems,” he said.

He said Apple sees this as “the mother of all AI projects” and that this is “a core technology that we view as very important.” Apple has given no indication of specific projects for autonomous vehicles.
