How will autonomous driving change our everyday lives?
Mon, September 23, 2019 6 pm CEST, Lecture

On the occasion of the Year of Science 2019 »Artificial Intelligence«, the event will discuss the topic of autonomous driving with impulse lectures, panel discussions and well-known representatives from science, business and politics.

What could a future with autonomous vehicles look like? Who are the main driving forces behind this development? What is possible today and what will come tomorrow? Will autonomous driving prevail or not? These and other exciting questions, which concern us all, will be discussed in the interactive event.

The audience can actively participate in the discussion through the form of the »House of Commons Debate«. With the system »The ayes to the right, the noes to the left«, as in the British House of Commons, discussions are held with conviction, fun and good arguments.
