In this way, we are accelerating development cycles, automating processes and promoting new ideas – including in design and material construction.
Artificial intelligence in practice
Volkswagen Group establishes artificial intelligence company
Digital products based on artificial intelligence (AI) will play a key role for the Volkswagen Group in the futureVolkswagen intends to simplify collaboration with tech companies and to make optimum use of the AI sector’s innovation potential New “AI Lab” within the Group will act as a globally networked competence center and incubator “AI Lab” will identify new product ideas connected with AI and collaborate with tech companies as the need arises
In the future, digital products based on artificial intelligence (AI) will play a key role for the Volkswagen Group. New infotainment and navigation applications, high-performance speech recognition, extended vehicle functions and the deep integration of digital ecosystems in the car will bring considerable benefits to customers, enhancing the product experience. This is why Volkswagen has established a specialized “AI Lab”. The company will act as a globally networked competence center and incubator. AI Lab will identify new product ideas for
Audi scales up deployment of artificial intelligence in production
production systems via a large cloud instead of stationary factory computers at scaleGerd Walker, Board Member for Production: “Artificial intelligence is a quantum leap for efficiency in our production. With our AI and digitalization roadmap, we are transforming our plants into smart factories where AI acts as a partner, providing our employees with tailored support.”Partnerships with institutions such as IPAI Heilbronn complement Audi’s innovation strength
Audi is consistently rolling out artificial intelligence (AI) in production and logistics: the company is scaling up its own cloud platform for production and introducing new AI use cases and technologies for large-scale series production. In doing so, the premium manufacturer is relying on the expertise of strong partners. Decades of manufacturing expertise meet smart digital solutions.

Volkswagen Group expands its competence in artificial intelligence
Group continues to drive the digital transformation forward and is expanding its competence with regard to artificial intelligence (AI), not only with a view to using this key technology in the field of autonomous driving and in production, but also to speed up corporate processes. To that end, Prof. Patrick van der Smagt will be joining the team of AI experts and data scientists at the Volkswagen Group's Data Lab in Munich from October, and will lead the AI team. Van der Smagt is Associate Professor at Technische Universität München and one of Europe's leading experts in deep learning and robotics.
Dr. Martin Hofmann, Chief Information Officer at the Volkswagen Group, commented: "We are delighted that Professor van der Smagt will be joining the Data Lab. This shows how attractive the Volkswagen Group's IT labs are for distinguished scientists and experts in artificial intelligence . Top specialists from Volkswagen, industry partners and the academic world as well as startups jointly develop
"Artificial intelligence is becoming a key competitive factor"
