Forum kontrovers: Dr. Henrik Schärfe (Foundation Autonomous)
Autonomous now!
Cyber-Physical systems are transforming production, AI solutions gain ground in everyday life, robots are everywhere, and vehicles drive themselves. Collectively, these trends emphasize the movement towards autonomous technology. In this talk, Dr. Henrik Scharfe reflects on the societal implications of highly disruptive autonomous systems. The insights are gleaned from the Geminoid-DK project (the world’s most lifelike android crafted in Scharfe’s likeness), as well as the current effort of bringing Level 5 autonomous cars to the streets of Denmark. This is a personal story of a driven man and his work with technology on the edge of tomorrow.
